Swindell Captures Castrol Raceway’s Sixth annual Oil City Cup

Hafertepe Jr. unhappy with late-race pass that nets Swindell his 10^th Outlaws win

EDMONTON, Alberta — Aug. 25, 2012 — Sam Hafertepe Jr. won’t be inviting Sammy Swindell over for a barbecue any time soon.

The duo nearly touched racing for the lead with two laps remaining on a brisk Saturday evening at Castrol Raceway, where Swindell edged Hafertepe Jr. to claim Night 2 of the Sixth annual Oil City Cup and his 10^th World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series feature win of the season.

“I definitely had the better car,” Hafertepe Jr said. “He had to pretty much drive through us to pass us. That’s part of it sometimes. We’ll do the same thing when the option comes around (to) my turn.”

WINCHESTER, VA – Aug. 25, 2012 – Wet weather forced the cancelation of Saturday night’s World of Outlaws Late Model Series event at Winchester Speedway.

With light rain arriving during the afternoon and a dire forecast calling for a large swath of heavier precipitation to soon overtake the area, Winchester promoter Greg Gunter made the decision to call off the program early in an effort to save fans and racers from traveling to the three-eighths-mile oval.

INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 23, 2012) – One of the toughest things a champion faces is sustaining success. There’s no greater feeling than winning that first title but, once you reach the pinnacle, staying there becomes a way of life. Sports dynasties are built around teamwork and traditionally at least one incredibly talented member. In the 1980s, the Edmonton Oilers were the class of the National Hockey League led by Wayne Gretzky and cast of characters who only wanted to win.
