2011 Outlaw Dirt Kart Nationals Champion!!!

After winning his 4th A-Main in a row July 22nd and a rain out on July 29th , it was time for the Outlaw Dirt Kart Nationals to roll in to town at English Creek Speedway. “This is the one I have been waiting for all year. We only have had one good run at the Nationals the last three years with a second place finish in our first year in 2008.”

Devin started 5th in the first heat race and took the lead on lap three and cruised to victory. In the second heat Devin started from outside of the front row and led all ten laps to put him high point man for the first day of racing.

Day two Devin pulled the number one out of the hat to start the six car ten lap dash for cash from the number one spot. “ We got a good jump on the start and I was able to hang on for the ten laps.” Devin put the Stew Hansen TRR Powered Avenger on the pole for the twenty lap Nationals A-Main.

The start of the A-Main was not what the team was looking for. “On the start we must of got some debris in the carburetor and caused the motor to stumble and we fell back to 9th. I worked my way back up to 5th and I ended up spinning out coming off of turn two. We had to restart 11th with 13 laps to go. We got up into 2nd with 8 laps to go and there was a red flag. My Dad(Ron) told me that Josh(Moffitt) was running the bottom very well and that I had to go where he was not. We were able to power past him on the restart with five laps to go and win it. It was one crazy race! Thank god for the TRR horsepower to get me back to the front. I want to thank Scott McKeever, Marv and Carol Sievers(from California), Dave Abell(Battles Racing & Kart Supply), Tom Rayl(TRR), Grandpa(Glen), and Mom(Patricia) and Dad(Ron) for helping me win this Nationals!”
