At the beginning of the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series season, Jade Avedisian was seeing red. “I’ve been racing seven years and I don’t think I’ve ever felt this much pressure,” Avedisian said. He boasts a 5.57 average feature finish, compared to Avedisian’s average finish of 6.19. When the series returned from its summer break in late July, fourth-place Avedisian was 180 points behind McIntosh. “We were 180 points out and I kinda thought, this is probably going to be over,” Avedisian said. Within six races — picking up three wins, two podiums and one sixth-place finish — Avedisian had the point lead. “To have the points lead, seven up, was a good feeling,” Avedisian said.
