CHASING GREEN: Reutzel and RSR earn $10,000 POWRi victory at 34 Raceway; Huset’s Hustle and High Bank Nationals on deck

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (June 16, 2025) – For the fifth time in 2025, “A-Aron” Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR) found themselves on top of the heap, highlighting their recent week of competition with a POWRi 410 Outlaw Sprint League victory at 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, on Thursday, June 12. The victory, accompanied by a $10,000 payday, was accomplished in fantastic fashion, leading all 30 circuits after a stellar preliminary effort that included the evening’s fastest qualifying time. In addition, it was Reutzel’s first POWRi score of the year, as well as his second podium of the week, technically launching his week’s agenda with a third-place finish in Eagle Raceway’s $55,555-to-win Eagle Nationals on Tuesday, June 10; he finished third, the highest of any full-time High Limit Racing competitor.

Reutzel, ace of Brian and Lisa Ridge’s Power Plus, Folkens Brothers Trucking, Don Long & STC, B And L Holdings, American Table, Commercial Edge, Rasmusson Service Center, The P.O. Box, Bargain Barn, No. 87 sprint car, raced on to conclude his recent week of competition with a top-ten versus the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa. The Clute, Texas, native was ninth in Saturday’s program, a sound performance with over 60 of the country’s best wheelman signed in for action. The effort was also a sound rebound, forced to retire early in Friday’s World of Outlaws event due to a heat race issue.

“Super proud of Aaron [Reutzel] and this entire Ridge & Sons Racing team. The guys are really starting to hit their stride and the results show,” Brian Ridge, owner of RSR, explained. “We have some big money to chase again this week. We’re going to roll into Huset’s with a lot of confidence and that’s what’s needed to be up front. We’ll see everyone in South Dakota.”

As noted, a major week sits ahead for Aaron Reutzel and Ridge & Sons Racing, as they’re set to rejoin the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series for Huset’s Speedway’s four-day Huset’s Hustle (June 18-19) and High Bank Nationals (June 20-21) program kicking off Wednesday, June 18. The Huset’s Hustle will award a $100,000 payday on Thursday, with the High Bank Nationals finale on Saturday awarding $250,000-to-win. Aaron Reutzel, the former 3-time All Star Circuit of Champions champion, is certainly no stranger to big paydays, already earning the $100,000 Bob Weikert Memorial at Port Royal Speedway on Sunday, May 25.

Ridge & Sons Racing (RSR) and Aaron Reutzel will continue their 2025 campaign with a major slate in South Dakota, joining the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series for the BillionAuto.com Huset’s High Bank Nationals presented by Menards beginning with the Huset’s Hustle on June 18-19 ($100,000-to-win Thursday).
