10 May
Summary
- Kasey Kahne achieved his first World of Outlaws win after 227 starts.
- The victory occurred at Williams Grove Speedway during the Morgan Cup.
- Kahne stepped into the No. 39 car due to Anthony Macri's injury.
After 227 previous starts, former NASCAR Cup Series driver Kasey Kahne has captured his first World of Outlaws victory. This long-awaited win occurred this past Friday at Williams Grove Speedway during the Morgan Cup weekend.
Kahne drove the No. 39 machine for Macri Motorsports, a rare opportunity that arose when team regular Anthony Macri suffered a back injury. Kahne, who has 18 NASCAR Cup Series wins to his name, previously had two third-place finishes in the World of Outlaws as his best results. This victory marks a significant milestone after his initial appearance in the series in 1997.
The 46-year-old driver expressed surprise at his win, stating he was still preparing his own cars just two weeks prior. He credited the entire Macri Motorsports team, particularly Nick and the Macri family, and car chief Joe Mooney, for their crucial support in achieving this achievement.
