Macon, IL. (06/19/2021) Kyle Barker of Cooksville, IL. earned his first Lucas Oil POWRi 600cc Micro Sprint League Presented by Engler Machine & Tool career win. His first career win came to him at none other than the historic Mighty Macon Speedway in Macon, IL.
Barker started in the fourth position for the 20-lap main event, with Aaron Andruskevitch to his inside. Daryn Stark and Bradley Fezard on the front row, they led the field to the green flag. Stark lead lap No. one but had a little bobble which caused Barker to take over. Shain Kaiser went to work and slid Barker for the lead to take it over on lap three.
The top three battled for positions and traded slide jobs for the lead. Kaiser deemed unbeatable around lap ten but slowed and pulled into the infield. The field stayed green, so Barker ended up with the lead. Barker finished off the last nine laps to capture his first career POWRi victory and take his team to victory lane.
Tyler Kuykendall finished in the second position, Daryn Stark finished in third, Bradley Fezard in fourth, and Trevin Littleton rounded out the top five. The Lucas Oil POWRi 600cc Micro Sprint League will be back in action for the final night of the Illinois SPEEDweek at Brownstown Speedway.
