BROWNSBURG, Ind. (August 10, 2020) – The ‘Steel City Outlaw’ Tim Shaffer powered Tony Stewart Racing to three consecutive top-ten finishes during 360 sprint car competition, most recently capping his 360 Knoxville Nationals effort at the Sprint Car Capital of the World with a seventh-place result on Saturday, August 8. The 2010 Knoxville Nationals champion started fourth on the 360 Nationals grid, earning his way into the $15,000-to-win showstopper with a fifth-place outcome during preliminary competition two nights prior.
Impressive enough, Shaffer set the fourth-fastest time overall during preliminary time trials, eventually rallying from sixth to win his respective heat race. Shaffer’s entire preliminary effort allowed for the second-row starting position on Saturday night.
Setting the tone for his eventual 360 Knoxville Nationals campaign, Shaffer and Tony Stewart Racing made the tow to Knoxville Raceway on Saturday, August 1, and joined a stout field of weekly competitors for another round of Knoxville Championship Series action. The decision to enter resulted in success, as Shaffer finished second after starting in the exact same position.
