INDIANAPOLIS (April 24, 2012) – If repetition does in fact lead to perfection, this should be a good week for Tony Stewart Racing. Three World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Series events being contested over four nights, and two of those races are being held at tracks where TSR’s Steve Kinser and Donny Schatz have spent many nights perfecting their craft.
Team Reports

Kinser, Schatz Each Earn Top-Fives in Outlaws Midwest Doubleheader
After continuous bouts with Mother Nature in March and early April, the World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Series was finally able to complete a weekend of racing with consecutive nights of action in Missouri and Indiana. Donny Schatz and Steve Kinser each scored a top-five finish for Tony Stewart Racing (TSR) while Tony Stewart was solid most of Friday night’s program before a flat right-rear tire ended his bid for a top-five finish. Schatz charged the TSR No. 15 STP/Armor All/Chevrolet J&J from 19th to finish fourth Friday at the Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia. Kinser finished fifth Saturday aboard the TSR No. 11 Bass Pro Shops/J.D. Byrider/Chevrolet Maxim at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, Ind.
Another Taste of Victory at Tri-State for Dollansky
Saturday and World of Outlaws racing haven’t gone hand-in-hand recently with the last four scheduled events on Saturday succumbing to rain. That all changed last night at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, Indiana as Craig Dollansky and the Big Game Treestands #7 team prepared for a Saturday battle for the first time since March 10th.
Two Races: Two More Top-10 Finishes for Kraig Kinser
Bloomington, Ind. — April 22, 2012 — After having four weekends interrupted by rain on the second scheduled night of racing, Kraig Kinser wanted nothing more than to get both nights of competition in this past weekend with the World of Outlaws. That goal was accomplished, as Mother Nature stayed away both Friday and Saturday night, and the third-generation driver was able to earn two more Top-10 as he continues a strong start to the 2012 campaign.
So-so Sedalia for Dollansky
Back on a big half-mile for the first time in a month and a half, Craig Dollansky and the Big Game Treestands #7 team returned to Missouri State Fair Speedway on Friday after a one year absence for the first round of the Kasey Kahne Challenge.
Kerry Madsen – Strong Run at Paducah!
(Bill W) April 18, 2012 – Rain stayed on the World of Outlaws as they were washed out in Pevely, Missouri on Saturday night, but they did get in Friday’s run at Paducah (KY) International Raceway. Kerry Madsen had a strong showing, running up front for much of the feature before settling for fourth at the checkers. This weekend, the Keneric Racing #29 team heads to the Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia on Friday night and the Tri-State Speedway near Haubstadt, Indiana on Saturday.
Tony Stewart Racing Tandem Ventures to Missouri, Indiana Dirt Ovals
INDIANAPOLIS (April 18, 2012) – Finding momentum has been difficult for all the competitors on the traveling World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series tour. After losing a Saturday-night race to Mother Nature for the fourth consecutive weekend, the Tony Stewart Racing (TSR) teams would be happy simply getting in two straight nights of racing. TSR’s Steve Kinser and Donny Schatz are scheduled to be back on the dirt this weekend at a pair of vintage WoO venues, beginning with Friday’s stop at the Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia. The half-mile dirt oval is a typical fairgrounds track where speed is king. Saturday, it’s back to the Hoosier State for an action-packed evening on the quarter-mile high banks of Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, Ind.
A Historic Half-Mile and a Legendary Bullring Next up for Kraig Kinser
Bloomington, Ind. — April 18, 2012 — When it comes to dirt track racing in Missouri, there is no other track that has the history and legacy of Missouri State Fair Speedway in Sedalia. When looking at historic venues in the state of Indiana, Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt instantly comes to mind. Kraig Kinser will get a chance to race at both historic tracks this weekend as the World of Outlaws continue a stretch of eight races in the Midwest.
Kinser Continues Top-10 Streak in Outlaw Competition
The World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Series competitors resumed the 2012 campaign Friday night and the theme of the season continued to follow script. The series made its 2012 Midwest debut at Paducah (Ky.) International Raceway and the feature event turned out to be another freight train on a rubbered-down surface. Mother Nature also continued to play havoc by forcing officials to postpone Saturday’s scheduled event at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, Mo. It was the fourth consecutive Saturday night race that was lost due to weather.
