Return to Top Previewing the World of Outlaws at Huset’s Speedway Brandon, SD-June 30, 2010- After Mother Nature was victorious both nights last season, the World of Outlaws will make their return to Huset's Speedway in South Dakota on Thursday, July 1, which kicks off a stretch of six straight short track races as the 2010 season kicks into high gear. Craig Dollansky won both events the World of Outlaws ran at Huset's Speedway in 2008, battling four-time and defending series champion Donny Schatz in the first one and then pacing all 35 laps in the second visit to the high-banked bullring. The veteran has won a total of six wins in his career at Huset's Speedway. Steve Kinser, the 20-time World of Outlaws champion, has won six times in his career with the World of Outlaws at the high-banked bullring, with the most recent of those coming in 2003. He has made 30 starts with the series at the track, which is the most of any driver along with Danny Lasoski. Kinser has 23 Top-10 finishes with the World of Outlaws at Huset's Speedway and an average finish of 6.2 dating back to 1983. Danny Lasoski, the 2001 World of Outlaws champion, who is also a three-time Huset's Speedway track champion, has 40 career wins at the track, though he is still chasing his first victory in a World of Outlaws event there. Donny Schatz, the four-time and defending series champion, has won twice with the World of Outlaws and four times overall in his career at Huset's Speedway. He has racked up 14 Top-10 finishes with the series at the track with seven of those being Top-Five performances. Joey Saldana, the current World of Outlaws point leader has finished in the Top-10 seven times in his career at Huset's Speedway as he looks for his first win at the high-banked bullring. Jason Meyers, who is currently tied for the series lead in wins with six this season has finished in the Top-10 in seven of his eight career starts at the track with four of those being Top-Five runs. The Buzz- Craig Dollansky looks to make it three straight wins at Huset's Speedway with the World of Outlaws. He has six overall wins at the track in his career. Steve Kinser has six wins with the World of Outlaws at Huset's Speedway to lead all active drivers. He is one of just two drivers that have made 30 starts with the series at the track, with Danny Lasoski being the other. Donny Schatz has won twice with the World of Outlaws at Huset's Speedway and four times overall in his career. He led a number of laps at the track in 2008 finishing second in the second race to Craig Dollansky. Jac Haudenschild has six career wins at Huset's Speedway. In World of Outlaws action he has nearly 20 Top-10 finishes as he looks for his first victory with the series at the track. Joey Saldana has seven career Top-10 finishes at Huset's Speedway as he looks for his first win at the track. Jason Meyers has finished in the Top-10 in seven of his eight career starts at the track. Lucas Wolfe, who is currently seventh in points, finished third at Huset's Speedway in 2008 in a weekly event in his debut at the track. He missed both World of Outlaws races at the track that season due to injury. Brian Ellenberger and Ben Gregg will all be making their debut at Huset's Speedway, as well as their debut in the state of South Dakota.

Return to Top Anthony White Hopes Hometrack Edge Helps In Inaugural World of Outlaws Late Model Series Event At Wartburg Speedway On Friday Night (July 2) WARTBURG, TN - June 30, 2010 - Wartburg Speedway is completely uncharted territory for every single regular on the World of Outlaws Late Model Series. But does that mean a driver with intimate knowledge of the tricky quarter-mile oval – a driver like Anthony White of Clinton, Tenn. – has an edge when the national tour makes its highly-anticipated first-ever stop at Wartburg this Friday night (July 2) for the $10,000-to-win ‘Invasion 50’ presented by All-State Trailers of Knoxville, Tenn.? It’s a good question, albeit one that White, 38, finds difficult to answer. “I guess I should have a little advantage,” said White, who began his racing career 20 years ago in the Street Stock division at Wartburg. “I’ve been running there a long time, so as far as knowing what to do (for setup) and how to drive the place, that’s not a problem for me. “But all of these (Outlaw) guys run more races than I do and probably have a lot more resources than I’ve ever had, and I’m sure they’ve seen something similar (to Wartburg) somewhere else. It won’t take them long to figure a new place out.” White paused for a moment. Considering his chances in the biggest dirt Late Model event ever contested at Wartburg Speedway, he added, “I was telling somebody earlier today – hell, it would be the race of my career if could win against these guys.” A hard-nosed racer affectionately known as the ‘Dirty White Boy,’ White will likely be the driver with the most Wartburg experience in Friday night’s star-studded field. He’s rung up some prolific victory totals at the track in recent years and is in the midst of another big season, dominating Wartburg’s headline Limited Late Model division to the tune of six wins in eight starts so far in 2010. White’s nearly flawless effort at Wartburg this season is highlighted by a $3,000 triumph in Southern Regional Racing Series event on May 8 – a race that saw him defeat open-motor cars with a crate engine bolted under the hood of his family-owned, homebuilt No. 2 machine. Friday’s WoO LMS program will mark his first appearance of ’10 with a big open motor providing his car’s power. “Vic Hill is letting us borrow an open motor for the Outlaw show,” White said of the well-known Tennessee engine builder. “We haven’t been doing much open-motor racing lately. We’ve been pretty busy with the business (a construction-supply firm called Stone Plus), so we’ve mostly been doing crate and steel-block stuff close to the house. We’re looking forward to putting an open motor back in and seeing what we can do.” White has just a single WoO LMS A-Main start to his credit, finishing 22nd in a 100-lap event on Oct. 13, 2007, at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, Tenn. But he’s proven his mettle in open-motor action over the years, with his resume topped by a 2006 Southern Nationals series championship. Can White summon the speed to defend his egg-shaped hometrack against the World of Outlaws invaders, including former champions (and first-time Wartburg visitors) Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va., Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y., Steve Francis of Ashland, Ky., and Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky.? “Realistically, it would be a great night for us if we can get at least a top five (finish),” said White, a two-time Late Model champ at Wartburg (2003 and 2007) and father of two daughters (ages 12 and nine) and a seven-year-old son. “I know my chances of winning are pretty slim – these guys are just better equipped than me. But I’ll give it 110 percent, and if everything falls our way maybe we can be there at the end. “Hopefully we’ll give everybody a good show and they’ll know we were there.” Friday’s field will also feature WoO LMS standouts such as Shane Clanton of Locust Grove, Ga., who is coming off a $30,000 victory in the Firecracker 100 presented by GottaRace.com on June 26 at Pennsylvania’s Lernerville Speedway, Clint Smith of Senoia, Ga., Rick Eckert of York, Pa., Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa., Tim Fuller of Watertown, N.Y., Russell King of Bristolville, Ohio, rookie sensation Austin Hubbard of Seaford, Del., Brent Robinson of Smithfield, Va., and Jill George of Cedar Falls, Iowa. Wartburg’s gates are scheduled to open at 3:30 p.m. on Fri., July 2, with practice set to get underway at 7 p.m. DIRTcar UMP Modifieds and Wartburg’s Street Stocks will also be part of the program, which features a huge fireworks display to celebrate the Fourth of July holiday. General admission ticket prices are $25 for adults, $10 for children ages 7-12 and free for kids 6-and-under. Admission to the track’s popular tiered drive-in parking area is $30 for adults, $20 for children 7-12 and free for youngsters 6-and-under, and pit passes are $35 (kids 6-and-under are admitted free to the pits). “The interest for this World of Outlaws event is just unbelievable,” said Wartburg owner Scott Green, who has spent the last 10 years promoting the three-decade-old facility. “We’re encouraging everyone to get to the track as early as they can because we’re expecting a great crowd.” More details on Wartburg Speedway’s historic WoO LMS show can be obtained by logging on to www.wartburgspeedway.net or calling 423-346-6750. Wartburg Speedway kicks off a Volunteer State doubleheader for the WoO LMS, which moves on to Tazewell (Tenn.) Speedway for a 50-lap, $10,000-to-win event on Sat., July 3.
