Mike has returned from his tour of duty overseas and makes his way back Knoxville Raceway for the first time this season on 8-27-11. Mike took the pole of his A Main and after fighting off a few cars he won for the first time in his sprint car racing career. Coming home on August 9th, his second son being born August 10th and his first win at Knoxville Raceway was the "tri-fecta" for him. In his words-"what more could you ask for?"
