Bloomington, Ind.—Sept. 23, 2012— Mother Nature tried her best to derail the World of Outlaws this past weekend, as she was victorious at Eldora Speedway on Friday and did all she could to disrupt Saturday night’s event at Lernerville Speedway, but track and series officials persevered and despite a three-hour rain-delay the program was completed in its entirety, and for Kraig Kinser a ninth-place showing, marked his second Top-10 finish of the week.

Bloomington, Ind.—Sept. 18, 2012— Eagle Raceway, Eldora Speedway and Lernerville Speedway are three very different and distinct race tracks, but they all have one common attribute — they are three of the highest-banked venues on the World of Outlaws schedule.

Tony Stewart Racing Teams Return to the Midwest
INDIANAPOLIS (Sept.12, 2012) – Just because the World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series doesn’t end the year with a playoff format like NASCAR’s Chase for the Sprint Cup or the NHRA’s Full Throttle Countdown to the Championship, don’t think the final dozen races will be without drama. The 2012 WoO season has been one of the most competitive in years with four different drivers leading the standings at one point or another and each also having gone through his share of bad luck. This weekend, the battle continues with Friday’s sixth annual Arnold Motor Supply Shootout at Clay County Fairgrounds in Spencer, Iowa, and Saturday’s FVP Clash at the Creek at Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn.
