SALDANA PLANS TO STAND TALL AT BOOT HILL SHOWDOWN DOUBLEHEADER

DODGE CITY, Kan. (July 4, 2013) – Five-time Boot Hill Showdown winner Joey Saldana will be looking to put another notch in the win column when the World of Outlaws stops in Dodge City July 5-6 for a Showdown doubleheader.

It makes perfect sense that Dodge City, a town well-known for famous and infamous gunfighters like Doc Holliday and lawmen like Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson, would host the most famous and infamous World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car drivers for a four- wheeled test of the best on dirt.  These Outlaws don’t depend on their quick draws to defeat their competitors, but they do depend on quick times, and like the gunfighters of old, they engage in passionate fights on the dirt.

WATERTOWN, Conn.—July 1, 2013— David Gravel has run pretty well on the smaller, high-banked bullrings with the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series this season. He continued that trend at the quarter-mile LaSalle (Ill.) Speedway and third-mile Beaver Dam (Wis.) Raceway over the weekend, finishing eighth and seventh, respectively, at the pair of tracks that were part of a three-race swing through Illinois and Wisconsin aboard the FMR Racing/JRC Transportation/Musco Fuel/Model Craft J&J.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind.—July 1, 2013 — Carrying momentum from a pair of fifth-place finishes with the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series at River Cities Speedway in North Dakota, and I-94 Speedway in Minnesota, Kraig Kinser had high hopes heading into the three events this past weekend. The trio of races started on a strong note for the native of Bloomington, Ind., as he came home ninth at LaSalle Speedway in Illinois, but didn’t quite end how he would have liked, as he was caught up in other driver’s accidents at both Beaver Dam (Wis.) and Cedar Lake (Wis.) Speedway. On the positive side, his crew was able to make repairs after each of those incidents and he got back out on the track to finish the two races in the Casey’s General Store/Mesilla Valley Transportation Maxim.
