Speed. Slider. Crash. Checkered. Friday\u2019s Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota main event had a finish like none other in 2024.<\/p>\n
When race leader Ryan Timms and teammate Gavin Miller tangled and crashed into the inside wall in the final corner on the last lap, Zach Daum was there to capitalize, slipping by both drivers on the bottom out of Turn 4 and crossing the stripe to steal the win \u2014 the second of his Midget career at Jacksonville Speedway.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, when I came around, obviously I was happy, but I just felt really bad for Ryan because I felt like he drove a really good race,\u201d Daum, 32, of Pocahontas, IL, said. \u201cHe kinda deserved to win that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daum\u2019s second win of the season was his first trip to Victory Lane since May, when he and Trifecta Motorsports won at Millbridge Speedway (NC). The $4,000 score marked the Oklahoma-based team\u2019s seventh career Xtreme Outlaw Series win \u2014 all seven of which have come with Daum in the seat since the dawning of their long-term partnership in June of last year.<\/p>\n
Not having been to Victory Lane in five months had left Daum and the team scratching their heads looking for an answer to their competition. Now, they\u2019ve found it and brought it out in front of the driver\u2019s home state crowd.<\/p>\n
