Jacob Denney Goes Back-to-Back with POWRi National and West Midget Leagues at Port City
Tulsa, OK. (3/14/26) - Jacob Denney made it back-to-back wins at Port City Raceway on Saturday night, driving from tenth to win the final night of the 13th Annual POWRi Turnpike Challenge presented by Milestone Home Services. Denney took the lead on lap thirteen and stayed out front the rest of the way to earn his eleventh career feature win with the POWRi National and West Midget Leagues.
A strong field of forty-eight entries filled the pit area for the POWRi National and West Midgets, with Matt Sherrell setting quick time in qualifying with a lap of 10.309 seconds. Heat race wins went to Karter Sarff, Gunnar Setser, Jakeb Boxell, Kyle Jones, Ethan Mitchell, and Jacob Denney, while Sherrell and Gavin Miller won the semi-features.
Karter Sarff and Gunnar Setser led the field to green, with Sarff taking the early lead as the race got underway. Sarff paced the opening laps while Boxell quickly worked his way to the front and took over the lead on lap three. Behind them, Denney continued moving forward from his tenth starting spot and worked his way into contention.
Boxell led the next ten laps before Denney made his move for the lead on lap thirteen with a slider in turn four. From there, Denney stayed in control through the remainder of the feature to complete the weekend sweep at Port City.
Sarff held on for second at the finish, while Zach Daum completed the podium in third. Kyle Jones finished fourth, with Kale Drake rounding out the top five.
“This one was even tougher than last night from having to come from deeper in the field. This car is fast anywhere, and I gained valuable spots using the choose-cone,” said Jacob Denney in the Tulsa winner’s circle. Adding, “Stuff happens so quickly on these bullrings, and you have to be ready to capitalize.”
