Caleb Saiz Reigns Supreme in 2020 POWRi NMMRA Points Championship

Belleville, IL. (10/19/2020) Forced into a lengthy shut down for nearly the entirety of the 2020 racing season, the POWRi Lucas Oil New Mexico Motor Racing Association would compete in six events at two separate racing venues this year with wheel-to-wheel action throughout. Visiting their home racing surfaces of Sandia Speedway on four speedy occasions while spectacularly visiting Alien Raceway for a two-day show. With only seven points separating the top-two championship finishers, Caleb Saiz of Albuquerque New Mexico would earn the title in a hard-fought battle all season with second place season finisher Spencer Hill.

Stretching in racing dates from mid-July to early-October, the POWRi NMMRA would see four separate feature winners with Saiz and Don Grable both earning a pair of wins, while Rick Ziehl and Michael Fanelli would each win one event. Close racing and even-competition would set the stage for a touch of late-season dramatics with the championship title on the line.

Caleb Saiz would use front-running consistency all season to bring home the hardware in his Hal Burns Truck and Equipment, NAPA Belts and Hoses, Performance Plus Racing Engines, Scoggin Mechanical Industries, Schaeffer’s Racing Oil, Race Simpson, Hoosier Racing Tire Midwest, Weise Auto Supply, JMS Telephone Company, JMP Voip #99. Continuing to be a top-pilot in open-wheel racing, Saiz remains ready for the upcoming season and beyond to defend his throne as the champion of the POWRi Lucas Oil New Mexico Motor Racing Association.

Celebrating a season championship Saiz would state, “I couldn’t be happier to win the 2020 POWRi NMMRA Non-Wing Sprint Car Championship. “It’s been a rollercoaster type of year for us, but we powered through it and made it happen. I can’t thank the team enough, without them none of this would have been possible.” Going on to prove his team-first mentality Caleb would reflect the spotlight saying, “I couldn’t be happier for my teammate Devon Amos, he finished out the year strong and did very well for his first year in a sprint car.”
Bringing more winning ways to the desert team of Hal Burns Racing, Devon Amos #41 would claim the POWRi New Mexico Motor Racing Association Rookie of the Year honors for the 2020 racing season. Amos, an incredibly talented wheelman, would be under-powered in his mighty 305 but would prove to be a force in the future after his first season of non-wing racing.
