Arcadia, Oklahoma’s Ty Williams Captures $5,000 Drive to Zero United Rebel Sprint Series 2021 Season Championship

OBERLIN, Kansas (October 13, 2021) – In 2021, the Lucas Oil POWRi United Rebel Sprint Series Presented by Mel Hambelton Ford Racing joined forces with Kansas’ Drive to Zero program as the presenting partner for the season points chase. With the partnership came a substantial pay day to the Points Champion, pocketing $5,000.

The Drive to Zero program was designed with one goal in mind – to reduce fatalities and serious injuries that occur on Kansas highways – targeting child passenger safety, impaired driving, texting, and seat belt violations. To learn more, visit www.kansasdrivetozero.com.
