By JAMIE BIRD 2 min read

Anthony Macri had the crowd screaming Posse! Posse! after he drove past Garet Williamson to take the lead on his way to claiming the King’s Crown for the second year in a row; and the $200,000 payday that went along with the title. It was not an easy win though, he had Rico on his heals trying to take over the top spot.

A yellow flag with two laps to go for Spencer Bayston, set up a green-white-checkers for the finish and his second consecutive crown making him “King Anthony XLIII”! He is also the ninth driver with multiple victories and the second person to do it consecutively. Even more surprising is the fact that he had only recently from a back injury that had him benched for months this summer.

Rico crossed the line in second followed by Giovanni Scelzi , Corey Day and Williamson in fifth after he had led the most laps.

The Knight before race was claimed by Corey Day, who spends most of his time driving for Hendrick Motorsports in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, but since they were off this weekend he jumped in a sprint car and ran away with the $25,000 win in the preliminary night action.

In the Joker;s Jackpot race on Thursday night it was Kyle Larson charging by Rico Abreu for the $100,000. It was his sixth trip to victory lane this season. Abreu finished in second place with Logan Schuchart filling out the podium.

the Wednesday night Double Down Duels saw Brent Marks and Corey Day split the feature wins, heading into the Jokers Jackpot.

At Williams Grove Speedway having to cancel last Friday due to the air quality, they return this weekend with an Outlaw tune-up along with Fan Appreciation night.

Starting at /week.
