Beason Goes The Distance Out West

SAPULPA, Okla. – Leading wire-to-wire, Jonathan Beason controlled Friday’s POWRi Lucas Oil West Midget League main event at Creek County Speedway from start to finish.

Rolling a five-car inversion for the feature, Andrew Felker went from high point man to a fifth-place starting spot as Jonathan Beason and Kyle Jones assumed the front row of the 25-lap feature.

Jumping into the lead, Beason immediately grabbed the top spot and never relinquished it. Leading all 25 laps at Creek County Speedway, Beason ran away with his third win of the season aboard the Hard 8 Racing No. 8J, his second at the Sapulpa, Okla., quarter-mile.
