Even a little rain did not stop the action at the Knoxville Raceway on Saturday as all three classes crowned winners and the DTRA Dirt Trucks also raced a couple of features heard live on 95.3 KNIA. Aaron Reutzel made an unexpected trip back from the King’s Royal in Eldora, Ohio after crashing on Thursday. He made the most of his return trip passing Tasker Phillips with three laps to go to nail down another win. Ian Madsen, prepping for the 360 Nationals took the 360 show passing Joe Beaver early in the race and holding on for the win, and Tyler Gronenendyk had to survive multiple restarts and a rain delay to stave off everyone in the Pro Sprints. Groenendyk told KNIA/KRLS Sports the rain actually may have helped him win.

Groenendyk: Unique scenario and it gave us a chance to make some tweaks on the car. Al and I talked and we did a few things, and kind of a unique track and the car ran flawless. I think without the rain we would have likely ran 2nd.”

Shawn Cooney and Todd Cooney took the truck wins as they ran two features. More racing is this Saturday as all three classes will be in action.
