Karter Sarff

Belleville, IL. (7/16/22) Karter Sarff would fend off all challengers in an action-packed thriller at Valley Speedway Saturday night to earn his first career feature victory with the Lucas Oil POWRi National & West Midget Leagues in Night Two of the Thunder in the Valley Weekend.

Early POWRi National & West Midget League competition would see Chase McDermand start the night on the right foot by clocking a 13.521-second lap and notch the quickest hot-lap time as Gavan Boschele and Emilio Hoover each would earn heat race victories.

Launching the field on the initial green flag launch would find high point qualifier Chase McDermand line up with Emilio Hoover opening on the outside of the front row as McDermand would take the initial racing lead. Using the low-line momentum McDermand and Kyle Jones would battle feverishly with Boschele and Brenham Crouch quickly closing on the frontrunners.

Challenged early and often, McDermand would appear to be on his way to repeating the weekend when ninth starting Karter Sarff worked his way through the field to pull even with the leading McDermand with a tough-fought battle breaking out for the front position between Sarff, Boschele, McDermand, Jones, and the hard-charging Mitchell Davis.

Fending off all competitors, Karter Sarff would eventually emerge victorious by sticking to a clean-middle line of racing with Chase McDermand settling into finishing runner-up as Gavan Boschele completed the features podium finishers.

“I can’t begin to explain what this means to us as a family team. We wanted this so damn bad, there were times when we wanted to give up but this team doesn’t have any quit in it. That’s what makes this win so special” said a successful Karter Sarff in the Valley Speedway victory lane.

Racing from deep in the field, Jace Park would find the front of the field late to finish fourth as Mitchell Davis advanced nine positions rounding out the Lucas Oil POWRi National & West Midget Leagues top-five finishers at Valley Speedway for Night Two of the Thunder in the Valley Weekend.
