LAWRENCEBURG, Ind. (Oct. 16, 2015) – The World of Outlaws made a single stop this week at Lawrenceburg Speedway, one of the great bullrings that dates back to the 1960s when A.J. Foyt and Johnny Rutherford entertained the fans driving midgets.
In preliminary action tonight, Joey Saldana qualified 11th with a 12.318-second lap. This translated to a starting position for the Motter Equipment HE&M Saw Beltline Body Shop 71M on the outside of the front row in the third heat.
INDIANAPOLIS (Oct. 15, 2015) – When a driver looks up and sees the flagman waving an open hand, he knows there’s still time in the race, but if there is a move to make, it’s now or never. The competitors in the grueling, coast-to-coast, bullring-to-big half-mile dirt oval, February-to-November World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series marathon are getting the “five-to-go” signal this week as they make their final Midwest stop of 2015.
The first driver seeing the signal is Tony Stewart-Curb Agajanian Racing (TSR) driver Donny Schatz, and he’s been leading the way for most of the season. The 38-year-old North Dakota driver and his Bad Boy Buggies/Chevrolet Performance team are in the midst of the best single-season performance in more than 20 seasons. The team has already clinched the season points championship and looks to continue its storybook season Friday at Lawrenceburg (Indiana) Speedway, where they’ve won the 35-lap A-Feature at the 3/8-mile high-banked, dirt oval each of the previous two seasons.
LAWRENCEBURG, Ind. (Oct. 13, 2015) –With the final weeks of the World of Outlaws Sprint Car season winding down there is one event on the calendar this week at Lawrenceburg Speedway, Friday, Oct. 16. Originally scheduled for May 25, rain forced postponement of the event to this Friday.
The ‘burg is pure Americana, pure bullring steeped in history. Back in the 1960s when USAC midgets raced at Lawrenceburg, legendary drivers like A.J. Foyt and Johnny Rutherford were standing on the gas and pitching them sideways.
