POWRi West Tulsa Debut To Beason

TULSA, Okla. — Jonathan Beason picked up his second straight Lucas Oil POWRi West Midget League feature victory Friday night during the series’ debut at the newly opened Tulsa Speedway. 

Andrew Deal led the field to green, but it was Andrew Felker jumped out to the early lead. Felker continued to lead through multiple cautions with Tanner Berryhill and Beason ran him down. 

As laps clicked away, Beason moved into second and began the battle with Felker for the lead. A late-race caution for polesitter Deal brought the field together with Beason at the point.

One last caution with five laps remaining gave Felker and Berryhill an opportunity to close in on Beason, but when green flag racing resumed, Beason would sail to his second consecutive POWRi West win. 

Felker followed Beason across the line, earning the Realty Connect $100 second place bonus, with Berry third, Deal recovered to finish fourth and Kameron Key rounded out the top five.

The finish:
