Rico Abreu Claims 33rd Annual 360 Knoxville Nationals Rookie Of The Year And Hard Charger Awards

KNOXVILLE, Iowa (August 5, 2023) – Rico Abreu continued his hot streak in Iowa and claimed a podium finish in the 33rd Annual Xtream Powered by Mediacom 360 Knoxville Nationals Presented by Great Southern Bank.


Abreu claimed the last transfer spot from the B main and then raced from the 24th starting position all the way to a podium finish (3rd).



“(This charge) shows how good our guys are,” said Abreu, who claimed the last transfer from the B. “We made some big swings from Thursday night. We got a little bit better and better every time. That B was key. We got our tires heated up and got some good steam through the middle. I made my marks in the feature there. 360 racing is such a different style of racing. You have to keep your momentum and RPM’s up. It just took us some laps to get it. This is the best racetrack in the world and that’s why you see the best racing in the world here.”


Join Rico on Sunday, August 6 for the finale of the 12th Annual Avanti Windows and Doors Capitani Classic Presented by Great Southern Bank! For more information on the Knoxville Raceway, visit us online at www.KnoxvilleRaceway.com
