TEXAS TRADITION: Logan Schuchart's Devil's Bowl Dominance has Historical Significance Schuchart Ties Grandfather Bobby Allen at 30 Career World of Outlaws Wins

 

MESQUITE, TX - October 30, 2021 - As a little boy, Logan Schuchart was always in awe of his grandfather. The trophies, the stories, and the legend of "Scruffy" Bobby Allen drew that Hanover, PA native to follow his family's footsteps down the path of Sprint Car racing.

He wanted to be just like grandpa, and now he really is.

The 28-year-old rising star collected his 30th career victory on Saturday night, a number that brings him equal to grandfather Bobby Allen for 20th on the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series all-time wins list.

All 30 of Logan's victories since 2016 have come behind the wheel of the Shark Racing #1S, a heartwarming rags-to-riches operation fielded by his grandpa and fueled by pure passion for the sport and never-ending love for his family.

"He's my mentor, he's my hero, he's the guy I've looked up to since I was a little kid," Schuchart spoke on his grandpa. "I always wanted to be like him when I was growing up, I mean he was a legend. To reach 30n wins and tie him at a track like Devil's Bowl with so much history is just awesome. This is a special one."

"I'm so proud of that boy," Bobby Allen said of his grandson. "I want to see him win another hundred races."

Charging from eighth to first to score the Texas Outlaw Nationals, Schuchart joined icons Sammy Swindell and Mark Kinser as the only three men to ever win three-straight at Devil's Bowl Speedway in World of Outlaws competition.

Ascending forward in rapid succession, Schuchart drove by Sheldon Haudenschild for third on Lap 19, then whipped by Carson Macedo for second on Lap 23, and already snookered Ayrton Gennetten one lap later to take command on Lap 24.

"That's the thing about this Drydene crew, we never give up," Schuchart said. "I was running third when I glanced at the board with I think 21 down and knew it was time to go. I was waiting for those guys to make some mistakes while they were racing each other. I got caught in the wrong spot last night, but we're back in victory lane tonight."

The victory marked seven on the season for the Drydene Performance Products #1S and extends a resurgent late-season run with four of those W's coming in the last 13 races. It's a momentum-building win for a team that doesn't show stellar numbers on paper but knows they've made progress in 2021.

A $20,000 score in Texas adds to other accolades such as the $50,000 Jackson Nationals victory, DIRTcar Nationals championship, Gold Cup title, and 4-Crown Nationals win, among others this season.

In Schuchart's success came Ayrton Gennetten's grief. The 22-year-old Missouri native earned the pole position in only his 28th career start with the Series and proceeded to lead the opening 23 laps. Willing to accept and fend off several challenges by Macedo, the budding pilot appeared poised for a first-career win until the #1S came to life in the late stages.

By the checkered flag, Gennetten slipped back to finish a career-best fourth in his first-ever appearance at the Mesquite, TX 1/2-mile.

"It was pretty cool," Gennetten noted. "Not a lot of people expect you to lead laps, especially that many. It's something you work for and dream of competing for World of Outlaws wins as a kid. I wish we could've capitalized, but there'll be the next time."

Rounding out the podium behind Schuchart and ahead of Gennetten was Carson Macedo in second aboard the Jason Johnson Racing #41 and Sheldon Haudenschild in third in the NOS Energy Drink, Stenhouse Jr. Marshall Racing #17.

Closing out the top-10 at Devil's Bowl was Donny Schatz in fifth, Brad Sweet in sixth, James McFadden in seventh, Sam Hafertepe Jr. in eighth, David Gravel in ninth, and Giovanni Scelzi in tenth.

By building a 106-point cushion over Gravel, Sweet and Kasey Kahne Racing unofficially clinched their third consecutive World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series championship. They'll officially take the title next week at Charlotte's World Finals.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series will conclude the 2021 season next week with the return of the NGK/NTK World Finals at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on Thursday-Saturday, November 4-6. Fans can BUY TICKETS HERE.

SOONER STATE STOMPIN': Macedo Masters Lawton for 11th Win of 2021 5.573-Second Margin of Victory is Largest World of Outlaws Win in Two Years

 

LAWTON, OK - October 29, 2021 - Back in the day, legendary Oklahoma Sooners football coach Barry Switzer wanted to "hang half-a-hundred on 'em." He insisted on never letting off the gas pedal and throttling opponents with an attacking offense that doesn't even let you catch your breath.

It was akin to just what Carson Macedo and Jason Johnson Racing did on Friday night at Oklahoma's Lawton Speedway.

Taking the lead on Lap Six and never looking back, the Lemoore, CA native drove away to a dominating 5.573-second margin of victory. It's the biggest beatdown at a World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series event in more than two years, or 153 races to be exact.

If it wasn't for a bad Dash redraw, the JJR squad would've likely swept the night after setting Slick Woody's QuickTime and winning their Team Drydene Heat Race. Instead, Macedo went from third to second on the opening circuit of the 35-lap Feature and moved to P1 by the sixth time around.

His 11th victory of the season brings Macedo to 17 on his career and continues to exceed expectations in his first full year with Phil & Brooke Dietz, Clyde Knipp, and Nate Repetz.

"Our goal was to win just five races, be consistent, and put together a respectable season," said the 25-year-old, who still has a shot to earn championship runner-up honors in his third full-time season."Obviously, we accomplished that and then some."

"These guys just continue to deliver," he added. "It makes my job so much easier behind the wheel. This car was incredible tonight. I'm speechless."

After leading the opening five laps, Logan Schuchart faded back to third and eventually rallied for a second-place score in the Shark Racing, Drydene Performance Products #1S. The Hanover, PA native is now up to 10 rummer-up results this season with three of them coming behind the Jason Johnson Racing #41 of Macedo.

"I'm unsure if we could've made better changes or if he just navigated traffic better than me," Schuchart noted. "It's still a great run for this team. We're going in the right direction on this track. Devil's Bowl has been good to us, so we've got some confidence in the back pocket for tomorrow night."

Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing continued their incredible late-season surge with a third-place finish for the Carquest, Ford Performance #15. It's his 25th podium appearance of the season and leaves him -56 points behind Gravel for the runner-up result in the championship standings.

"At one point I thought we weren't going to finish when an issue popped up with 10 to go," Schatz mentioned. "You're gonna have those nights, though. This team keeps delivering great race cars."

Following a five-race skid outside of the top-five, Brad Sweet snapped that streak and ran fourth aboard the Kasey Kahne Racing, NAPA Auto Parts #49. He finished one spot ahead of championship contender David Gravel and Big Game Motorsports in fifth, bumping The Big Cat's advantage to exactly 100 points with three nights left.

Rounding out the top-10 on Friday night was Aaron Reutzel in sixth with a Toyota engine under the hood of the RSR #8, outside polesitter Brock Zearfoss with a seventh-place effort, last week's winner Giovanni Scelzi in eighth with the KCP #18, Rookie of the Year leader James McFadden in ninth aboard the #9, and Kerry Madsen with KSE Hard Charger honors for a 15th-to-10th bid.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series visit Devil's Bowl Speedway for the $20,000-to-win Texas Outlaw Nationals tomorrow, Saturday, October 30. After that, the season-ending NGK/NTK World Finals take center stage on Thursday-Saturday, November 4-6.

GIO'S KINGDOM: Scelzi Steals Lakeside Glory from Madsen in Final Laps Teenage Sensation Shines in Crunch Time at FVP Platinum Battery Showdown

 

KANSAS CITY, KS - October 22, 2021 - It wasn't Patrick Mahomes crafting a perfect two-minute drill, but instead, Giovanni Scelzi scoring a comeback win in Kansas City on Friday night.

Much like the Chiefs' dazzling superstar quarterback, this California-born teenage sensation never wavered as the clock ran down and offered an epic rally to deliver a thriller in front of the K.C. fans.

After starting pole position, the 19-year-old fell back to as far as fourth before rallying to take the lead away on the final restart with four laps left at Lakeside Speedway. The kid they call "Hot Sauce" brought the heat on the only single-file restart of the race as he tracked Madsen down the front stretch, throttled the high side through turns one and two, and then cleared the #14 with a pitch-perfect slide job into turn three.

It's Scelzi's third career win with The Greatest Show Dirt, but his first this year, making him the 15th different winner in the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series in 2021.

Most notably, the win marked Scelzi's first with the Series aboard the KCP Racing #18. He joined the team in July 2020 and brings an Outlaw win back to the stable in his 58th try, which is the first for KCP since March 9, 2019, when Ian Madsen won at Thunderbowl Raceway.

The victory at Lakeside's 4/10-mile oval also came in Dylan Buswell's debut as new crew chief of the Aspen Aire, Logan Contractors Supply #18. The Australian most recently worked with Roth Motorsports & Aaron Reutzel before joining KCP two weeks ago.

Once clear of Madsen for the race lead, Scelzi controlled the final four laps and cruised to a 0.893-second margin of victory at the checkered flag.

"This is a huge relief," Scelzi said in victory lane. "I think the monkey is off our back. No matter how low the lows get, this team never gives up. I was hoping a caution would come out and sure enough, we got it. I knew that was my only chance to get Kerry and it worked perfectly. It was fast, but the track widened out well."

"I fell back early when Aaron Reutzel tried to crash me on the front stretch," a smirking Scelzi added. "It bent the tie rod, drag link, the steering was almost sideways, but it just gave me some extra motivation to race that much harder."

Donny Schatz also capitalized on the final restart and moved up to finish in second place aboard the Carquest, Ford Performance #15. It's the 10th runner-up result of 2021 for the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing team and moves them into third in the championship standings.

"I was hoping we'd get more traffic, but the yellows kept coming," Schatz said. "Gio was so good on those restarts, it's just the way it played out. The guys did a great job and we made the right adjustments."

After leading the opening 26 laps, Kerry Madsen settled for a third-place effort aboard the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing #14. It's a bittersweet result for the Australian, but still, his eighth podium finish in 20 World of Outlaws starts this year with TSR.

"It's unfortunate for this Tony Stewart team," Madsen admitted. "We had the best car and I had the opportunity to close it out, but just didn't do it. Being disappointed with a third-place finish means you're doing something right, though."

Aaron Reutzel collected his best World of Outlaws finish of his SRS #8 tenure in fourth-place, while Logan Schuchart drove the Drydene Performance Products #1S to a fifth-place effort and gained ground in the battle of fifth in the championship standings.

Rounding out the top-10 on Friday night was championship leader Brad Sweet & Kasey Kahne Racing in sixth, Kraig Kinser in seventh following an engine change, Carson Macedo & Jason Johnson Racing in eighth after spinning early, David Gravel with a career-best ninth at Lakeside, and Shark Racing's Jacob Allen in the tenth position.

UP NEXT: The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series will head south for a Halloween weekend doubleheader at Lawton (OK) Speedway on Friday, October 29, and Devil's Bowl (TX) Speedway on Saturday, October 30. After that, the 2021 season concludes with the NGK/NTK World Finals at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on November 4-6.

Abreu eyes Tulare’s Trophy Cup

 

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

ST. HELENA, Calif. (October 18, 2021) – Rico Abreu’s open wheel season is closing down rapidly, but the action is far from over.

Abreu, driver of the Rico Abreu/Curb Agajanian Racing/Rowdy Energy/Curb Records/Lucas Oil Products/Self Made Racing/XYZ Machining/Stadelhofer Construction/No. 24 sprint car, will continue his 2021 campaign with the Abreu Vineyards Trophy Cup 27 presented by Rudeen Racing at Tulare’s Thunderbowl Raceway on Thursday through Saturday, October 21-23. Certainly a highlight on the West Coast, the three-day blockbuster will feature three complete programs each awarding $4,000 to the main event winner. The weekend’s overall points champion will receive an additional $15,000 bonus. 

No stranger to Tulare’s historic Trophy Cup, Abreu was the 2019 event champion, actually sweeping the entire three-day program to earn $26,000. Abreu’s history making Trophy Cup performance had never been accomplished before. He won main events from fifth, tenth, and 17th.

“We’re ready and excited…it’s the Trophy Cup,” Abreu said, a two-time feature winner in 2021, one of which occurring in Knoxville Raceway’s Hard Knox program during the annual Knoxville Nationals. “It’s been a pretty crazy season, but I can’t say enough about my guys. They work hard and I owe it all to them. The travel, the miles, the schedule…none of it is easy but they never complain. I think we have it in us to be in contention for another Trophy Cup win. That’s our goal.”

Despite most of his season’s successes taking shape throughout the Midwest, Abreu does have some recent high marks on the West Coast. During his most recent try, the St. Helena, California-native secured a pair of top-five appearances at Keller Auto Speedway in Hanford, one of which in the annual Cotton Classic featuring the Sprint Car Challenge Tour.

In addition to the aforementioned Hard Knox win, Abreu found his second victory of the season during Eldora’s annual 4-Crown Nationals, earning the All Star Circuit of Champions portion triumph for $6,000.

STEVE DAVIS SWEEPS 602 MODIFIED SEASON AT BAPS, WINS HOT FROG HOT 50

 


YORK HAVEN, PA - Steve Davis felt comfortable at BAPS Motor Speedway the first time he took a fast lap on the racing surface.

 

It showed in his performance in FXG Sign and Label/Dickey’s Barbecue 602 Modified competition this season. When Davis pulled into the York Haven, Pa., facility, the competition was running for second place.

 

That was the case — again — Sunday during the 18th annual Insinger Performance/Sunoco Nationals fueled by Miller’s Racing Parts. Davis used a tactical approach and made his car last to the finish under tricky conditions to capture the Hot Frog Hot 50. It was his sixth win in six starts in 2022 at BAPS.

 

“Not a chance,” said Smith when asked if he imagined sweeping the season series at BAPS Motor Speedway. “It’s unbelievable, right now. To take every one of them with the quality of cars we’ve had ... I just like this place. It fits my driving style well. 

 

“We had a good car in the [Open Sportsman Modified] first one, and I was just hoping to make it to the end in this one. I just have to thank all of my sponsors and people who work on this car. Without them, the season wouldn’t be what it is.”

 

It was a big day for Davis. As he mentioned, he took top honors in the Open Sportsman Modified main event, dominating the 20-Lap affair after taking the lead on the eight circuit and cruising to a 1.294-second victory.

 

The winning march in the 50-Lap 602 Modified feature wasn’t as easy. Craig Whitmoyer started on the pole and left the field sit in the first half of the race.

 

Whitmoyer knifed through traffic on the slick surface and built a huge 7.5-second advantage by the time Lap 25 was scored. Meanwhile, Davis, who started third, settled into third and was worried about saving his equipment until the end.

 

“She’s about bald,” Davis said in Victory Lane. “I was just trying to save it at the beginning. Craig is fast and good, and I saw him setting a torrid pace, and I’m just like, ‘I’m going to keep this as straight as possible through the corners and try to save what I have until the end.’

 

‘Once we got that yellow, I was able to get next to him and look at his tire, and it wasn’t looking good. I’m like, ‘Man, if his looks like that, what does mine look like?’ I was trying to roll in as easy as I can and drive off as straight as possible.” 

 

It was a good plan. Davis got his shot at the leader after Kris Ney shredded a tire on the frontstretch on Lap 29.

 

Davis wasn’t going to let this opportunity slip by. The Cream Ridge, N.J., ace went one lane above Whitmoyer through Turns 1 and 2 and was able to get a launch off the second corner to take the lead on the backstretch.

 

“It was three laps before that caution came out, and I couldn’t see Craig anymore,” Davis said. “I was on the straightaway, and he was coming out of Turn 2, so I had to pick it up in case we didn’t have a yellow.

 

“I started running two or three laps pretty quick, and the next thing I know, the yellow came out. I didn’t have to use this stuff up, because if I had to keep going like that, I wouldn’t have made it.”

 

Continued Davis, “When we were passing cars and getting into lapped traffic, you could run in deeper and higher and stick a lane higher. I only wanted to do that if I had to force the car there, because the more pressure you put on a tire, the more it’s going to wear.”   

 

Whitmoyer stayed close for the next 10 laps, but his chance of retaking the lead came to an end on Lap 40 when his tire expired. He was able to change the tire and rejoin the field and make a run to the top five.

 

Meanwhile, Davis was in conserve mode. He kept it as straight as he could and survived five more restarts to claim the satisfying victory by .735 seconds.

 

Rick Wegner Jr. finished second, with Ray Woodall completing the podium. Joseph Brown and Whitmoyer rounded out the top five. Whitmoyer had quick time for the 19-car field with a lap of 19.412. 

 

In Superior Homes Extreme Stock competition, Patrick McClane dominated the 50-Lap main event by leading every lap from his outside-pole starting spot.

 

There were four cautions over the race distance, but there was no catching McClane. He took the win at the checker by a hefty 4.261 seconds.

 

Jason Townsend had a fast car at the end and stormed from 20th to second. Austin Hogue, Chase Rehbein, and Sam Rial completed the top five. 

 

Joey Hoffer was equally impressive in Creekside Auto Sales 358 Late Model action, leading every lap to win the 20-Lap main event.

 

Hoffer started on the pole and held it through two caution periods to win by 2.510 seconds over Ben Whitaker. Randy Zechman, Zach Kauffman, and DJ Mease completed the top five.

 

Jorjie Sweger continued her winning pace in the Gene Latta Ford Central Pa. Legends presented by Baker Door Company. The young driver won her third straight with the series in a 20-Lap nail-biter. 

 

Sweger, who also won Friday’s Legends main event at the speedway, started on the pole and led the whole way, but her lead was never safe. Seth Kearchner was on her bumper through four cautions and got his nose to her inside out of Turn 4 on a couple of occasions.

 

Each time, Sweger made the right move to hold the lead. She took the win by a mere .190 seconds at the stripe over Kearchner, Jeremy Ott, Travis McClelland, and Mike Racine. 

 

In the 20-Lap Street Stock feature, Brian Walls took the lead from Jim Palm on Lap 6 and led the rest of the main event. AJ Hoffner left the field sit in the 30-Lap Limited Stock main and took the win by 4.277 seconds. Connor Cantwell won the Classic Car feature.

 

The 18th annual Insinger Performance/Sunoco Nationals fueled by Miller’s Racing Parts was a two-day event. On Friday, Ken Duke Jr. won a thriller over Doug Dodson in the 305 Sprint Car main event.

 

Duke led the first 16 circuits in the 20-Lap affair. Dodson wrestled the lead away for one lap before Duke got back out front for three laps and claimed the win by .660 seconds at the finish line.

 

Dodson finished second, with Will Brunson, Mike Melair, and Domenic Melair completing the top five. Sweger and Brian Walls won the Legends and Street Stock feature events.

FREDDIE RAHMER & STEVE OWINGS CROWNED 2021 TRACK CHAMPIONS; Matt Campbell Wins a Thriller; Steve Owings Goes Back to Back to Claim Title

 

Saturday, February 26, 2022 (2:00 p.m.) ICE BREAKER 30

 

Abbottstown, PA (October 16, 2021) – Freddie Rahmer locked up the 2021 410 Sprint Car Championship prior to Saturday’s Night of Champions event. The final win of the season was still up for grabs though and four of the top five in the feature line-up were looking for their first Lincoln win of the season.

Matt Campbell lined up third and was up to second on the first lap, “The beginning that was pretty good racing. I was right there with Billy.”

Campbell stuck with Billy Dietrich early in the race, “I figured I had 30 laps just stay with him and wait until we get to the traffic and then be able to move around.”

Dietrich and Campbell caught the tail end of the field on lap 7 when a car spun ahead of them in turns 3 and 4, collecting Dietrich, “We got up to them cars and I went to go follow him in the top figuring we were going to start passing lapped traffic. I don’t what deal happened there but we barely made it through ourselves.”

Campbell inherited the lead and looked like he would be unchallenged for his first win of the season at Lincoln as the laps wound down. A late race caution changed that. Campbell had to hold off Devon Borden in a one lap shootout, “That was definitely exciting. I was kind of sitting there under yellow and looking at the board and trying to think where I want to run on the last lap. I may have done something a little different there if I could go back again but still it worked out the way we wanted it to. Yeah, that was fun.”

After a 2 hour 45 minute rain delay to start the night, the field lined up for the final 30-lap feature of the 2021 season.

Billy Dietrich took the lead when the green flag dropped with Matt Campbell getting by Austin Bishop to move up to second. Lucas Wolfe, Jordan Givler and Aaron Bollinger battled for fourth.

Campbell was using a good run off the bottom of turns 2 and 4 to close in on Dietrich.

The top two, Dietrich and Campbell, were battling for the lead when they caught the tail end of the field on lap 7. Just as lapped traffic was coming into play, Tim Glatfelter spun in turns 3 and 4. In an effort to avoid the spinning car Dietrich got into the back of a lapped car, causing his car to flip and catch on fire.

Campbell inherited the lead and led Bishop, Givler, Wolfe and Devon Borden on the restart.  

Campbell pulled a wheelie on the restart but held the lead. Chad Trout go by both Borden and Wolfe coming out of turn 2. Borden got back by Trout at the line, but Trout held on to fifth.

Bishop and Givler battled for second with Givler using the bottom of the track and Bishop running the top. The two were wheel to wheel at the line on lap 10 with Bishop holding on to second.

Givler got by Bishop and took second on lap 11.

Bollinger was challenging Trout for fifth on the outside and got into the top five on lap 13.

Bollinger made quick work of reeling in Borden to challenge for fourth.

Campbell found himself in lapped traffic on lap 15. Anthony Macri was working on Bollinger to try and make his way into the top five.

Borden got by Bishop for third and Macri got under Bollinger for fifth with 10 laps to go.

Borden passed Givler for second on lap 22.

Bollinger, Freddie Rahmer and Chase Dietz raced three wide for sixth behind Bishop. Dietz worked his way into the top five as he got by Bishop.

Borden was closing in on Campbell in lapped traffic when the yellow came out on lap 29 for Bishop, who had fallen off the pace and came to a stop on the back stretch.

Campbell, Borden, Macri, Dietz and Givler lined up for the one lap shootout.

Campbell had a good start and went to the top of turn 1. Borden went low and slid Campbell for the lead in turn 2. The two raced side by side down the back stretch and into turn 3. Campbell came out of turn 4 with the slight advantage and the two drag raced to the checkered flag.

Campbell got to the line .156 seconds ahead of Borden to claim his first win of the season at Lincoln. Macri finished third and Dietz was fourth. Givler completed the top five.

Heat race wins went to Matt Campbell, Billy Dietrich, Bradley Howard and Austin Bishop.

 

Steve Owings Goes Back to Back to Claim Title

 

After waiting over two years after his second win at Lincoln to score his third career victory at the track last week, Steve Owings made quick work of getting his fourth win at the track with his win on Saturday night. Not only was it Owing’s fourth win at the track, the victory secured his first Lincoln 358 Sprint Car Championship.

 

Owings had to work his way to the front of the field from his ninth starting spot, “I was a little worried there starting 9th. We made a couple of laps and we were really good on the bottom which I’m normally not, the track’s got a lot of moisture and that played in our favor for sure. It takes a group effort to get where we are.”

 

Going into Saturday night’s race, there were three drivers vying for the track championship, Owings, Jeff Rohrbaugh and Cody Fletcher, “It would have been nice to see if Jeff ran all of the races, I didn’t know he didn’t run them all. If Cody didn’t have his mishap we probably wouldn’t be here. You got to be fast but you have to have some luck too.”

 

“We had a really good year,” Owings reflected on his year in victory lane, “We’re a couple short on what I thought we were going to win truthfully. We came out of the box a little slow.” Despite a slow start Owings and his team put together a solid year, “It turned on in the end.”

 

Dylan Orwig and Cody Fletcher shared the front row of the 20-lap feature.

 

Orwig led the field into turn 1. Travis Scott and Jeff Rohrbaugh got by Fletcher and were running second and third. Zane Rudisill got by Fletcher to move into fourth and was up to third as he passed Rohrbaugh on lap 2. Rudisill fell back to fifth on lap three as Rohrbaugh and Owings passed him. Lap four saw Rudisill back up to third and Travis Scott take the lead.  

 

Orwig, Rohrbaugh and Owings battled for third behind Scott and Rudisill.

 

The yellow flag waved on lap 5 when Zach Allman was sitting backwards in turn 4.

 

Scott led Rudisill, Orwig, Rohrbaugh and Owings to the cone for the single file restart. Fletcher got under Owings on the restart to move into fifth. Fletcher made quick work of Rohrbaugh and took fourth coming out of turn 2.

 

Despite front wing damage, Rudisill was hunting down Scott to challenge him for the lead.

 

Fletcher made his way into third on lap 10.

 

Rudisill got too high in turn 2 and rode the wall eventually coming to a stop bringing out the caution on lap 11.

 

The top five for the restart were Scott, Fletcher, Owings, Orwig and Rohrbaugh. Owings got under Fletcher for second as they drove into turn 3. Kody Hartlaub got by Rohrbaugh for fourth.

 

Owings took the lead coming out of turn 4 at the line on lap 15. Scott reclaimed the lead on the next lap.

 

One final lead change came when Owings reclaimed the lead coming out of turn 2 with two laps to go.

 

Owings crossed the line .716 seconds ahead of Scott. Fletcher finished third and Hartlaub was fourth. Rohrbaugh completed the top five.

 

Heat race wins went to three championship contenders, Steve Owings, Cody Fletcher and Jeff Rohrbaugh.

ST. HELENA, Calif. (October 11, 2021) – It was a wild weekend on the West Coast for St. Helena, California’s Rico Abreu, and although the recent All Star Circuit of Champions 4-Crown Nationals champion was able to enjoy his return to California soil, there was little time to relax, as Abreu and Rico Abreu/Curb Agajanian Racing had to quickly prepare for a stout weekend at Keller Auto Speedway.

Abreu, driver of the Rowdy Energy/Curb Records/Lucas Oil Products/Wiser Agency/Salty’s BBQ/Self Made Racing/XYZ Machine/No. 24 sprint car, entered each of the programs hosted at Keller Auto Speedway on October 8-9, first entering the Sprint Car Challenge Tour’s 36th Annual Cotton Classic on Friday, followed by the King of the West/NARC Morrie Williams Memorial/Kenny Takeuchi Tribute on Saturday. 

When the dust settled in Hanford, Abreu found himself with a pair of top-five outcomes, opening action with a fourth-place score in the Cotton Classic on Friday, quickly followed by another fourth-place score in the first of two KWS/NARC features on Saturday. Abreu tried his best to finish the weekend three-for-three within the top-five, but the second feature inversion made it difficult to overcome; Abreu went on to finish 14th after starting 16th.

“It was a fun weekend in Hanford and I’m proud of our results, but all eyes are on the Trophy Cup,” Rico Abreu said. “We made some Trophy Cup history in 2019, so it’s our goal to do that again.”

Rico Abreu and Rico Abreu/Curb Agajanian Racing will continue their 2021 campaign with the Abreu Vineyards Trophy Cup presented by Rudeen Racing at Tulare’s Thunderbowl Raceway on October 21-23. The three-day blockbuster will feature three complete programs each awarding $4,000 to the main event winner. The weekend’s overall points champion will receive a $15,000 bonus. 

Certainly no stranger to Tulare’s Trophy Cup, Abreu was the 2019 event champion, actually sweeping the entire three-day program to earn $26,000. Abreu’s history making Trophy Cup performance had never been accomplished before. He won main events from fifth, tenth, and 17th.

The Madman on top for TSR in Port Royal’s Nittany Showdown opener

 

Dates: Friday and Saturday, October 8th-9th
Event: Nittany Showdown
Series: World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series
Track: Port Royal Speedway (Port Royal, Pennsylvania)
Kerry Madsen A-Main Finishes (Start):
Friday: 1st (2nd)
Saturday: 4th (6th)

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (October 11, 2021) – Kerry Madsen’s return to the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing No. 14 sprint car resulted in all but perfection, earning back-to-back top-five finishes in Port Royal Speedway’s two-day Nittany Showdown including a victory to open the weekend on Friday, October 8. Impressive, nonetheless, the victory was all but a casual walk in the park, as Madsen was forced to withstand pressure from some of the best in the business including ten-time Series champion and TSR teammate, Donny Schatz, as well as Central Pennsylvania living legend, Lance Dewease.

Madsen, driver of the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing and the No. 14/Rush Truck Centers/Advance Auto Parts/Curb Records/Ford Performance/Digital Ally/Sage Fruit/FloRacing/Absolute Automation and Security/Hunt Brothers Pizza/Mobil 1/Carquest Auto Parts/J&J Auto Racing/No. 14 sprint car, led all 25 circuits of Friday’s $10,000-to-win main event, ultimately cashing in for his third World of Outlaws victory of the 2021 season. 

As mentioned, the victory was far from easy for the St Marys, New South Wales, Australia-native. In fact, Madsen’s final margin of victory over Lance Dewease was 0.081 seconds; the smallest of the World of Outlaws season.

“I can’t say enough about this Tony Stewart Racing team,” Madsen said in victory lane. “I was a little bit rusty to start the night, but they kept tuning on the car and got me more and more comfortable. I was really good early in the Feature and kind of protected more so in the second half. What a fantastic car, though.”

Although unable to match his Friday night performance, Kerry Madsen closed out the 2021 Nittany Showdown at Port Royal’s “Speed Palace” with a fourth-place score on Saturday, ultimately bumping ahead two spots after winning his respective heat race.

A future schedule for Kerry Madsen and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing has yet to be determined. Any news and information pertaining to Madsen’s schedule will be released when it becomes available.

Schatz hard charges to podium finish in Nittany Showdown finale

 

Dates: Friday and Saturday, October 8th-9th
Event: Nittany Showdown
Series: World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series
Track: Port Royal Speedway (Port Royal, Pennsylvania)
Donny Schatz A-Main Finishes (Start):
Friday: 4th (5th)

2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Championship Standings: Fourth | 9744 points (166 points behind championship leader, Brad Sweet)

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (October 11, 2021) – Consistency is a word very much associated with Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing, and that is exactly what the team accomplished in Port Royal Speedway’s Nittany Showdown. Schatz, a ten-time Series champion and three-time main event winner thus far in 2021, finished fourth and third, respectively, in the two-day Port Royal invasion, actually challenging for a victory to open the weekend before capping his visit with a hard charge on Saturday. 

Although not victorious on Friday, Schatz, driver of the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing and the No. 15/Carquest Auto Parts/Curb Records/Ford Performance/Sage Fruit/Digital Ally/Advance Auto Parts/Rush Truck Centers/Absolute Automation and Security/Hunt Brothers Pizza/J&J Auto Racing/No. 15 sprint car, was in a winning position, pressuring TSR teammate, Kerry Madsen, persistently after a lap 15 restart. In fact, the Fargo, North Dakota-native took command from Madsen twice, but each time Madsen was able to turn the car back underneath Schatz. Schatz would eventually fade the fourth. 

The following evening, Schatz put on an impressive display to earn the evening’s Hard Charger Award, ultimately climbing from 12th to finish third in the $15,000-to-win Nittany Showdown finale. Schatz secured his podium placement with just two laps remaining.

“Pretty solid finish,” said Schatz. “We made some improvements and learned a lot in the Feature. We changed engines after the Heat Race and that was a good call. This team keeps digging and we’re getting better.”

The World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series will take a weekend off before resuming the 2021 season on Friday, October 22, with the FVP Platinum Battery Showdown at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas. Schatz will enter the one-day program fourth in the World of Outlaws driver standings, trailing defending champion and current point leader, Brad Sweet, by a certainly attainable 166 markers.

Zearfoss highlights Port Royal homecoming with impressive 12 spot rally Friday

 

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

JONESTOWN, Pa. (October 11, 2021) – The “Jonestown Jet” Brock Zearfoss was welcomed back to Port Royal Speedway with open arms over the weekend, joining his fellow World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series travelers for the two-day Nittany Showdown on Friday and Saturday, October 8-9. Awarding a total winner’s share equaling $25,000, the Nittany Showdown featured the World of Outlaws in Pennsylvania for the final time this season.

The two-day showcase resulted in a consistent effort for the Jonestown, Pennsylvania-native and former Port Royal Speedway track champion, eventually capping the two-day affair with an average finish of 12th, kicking off the weekend with an 11th-place score on Friday followed by a 13th-place score on Saturday. Impressive to say, Zearfoss was forced to earn his consistent results the hard way, first climbing 12 positions on Friday, then climbing another pair of spots on Saturday. Zearfoss’ Friday outcome was the product of the Last Chance Showdown, finishing third to qualify for the $10,000-to-win A-Main.

In all, Zearfoss’ results were sound enough to keep the World of Outlaws Rookie of the Year contender ninth in the overall driver standings.

“It felt good to be home, that’s for sure,” Zearfoss expressed, who owns 21 top-tens on the World of Outlaws campaign trail this season. “We’ve turned a lot of laps at Port Royal so we were pretty excited to have the opportunity to get back there and race. There’s nothing we would have loved more than to win in front of our home fans and partners, but I think our results speak for themselves. The guys worked hard all weekend. We get to spend a few extra days at home before we have to leave again so we’re going to suck that up, for sure.”

The World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series will take a weekend off before resuming the 2021 season on Friday, October 22, with the FVP Platinum Battery Showdown at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas.

Dietrich opens Nittany Showdown with top-ten; Lincoln finale ahead

 

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (October 11, 2021) – It was a hard-fought weekend in the Keystone State for Gettysburg’s Danny Dietrich, and although the 2021 Pennsylvania Sprint Speedweek champion did not attain another victory against the Greatest Show On Dirt, Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing performed well and highlighted the two-day Nittany Showdown at Port Royal’s “Speed Palace” with a top-ten performance, climbing seven spots to do so in Friday’s weekend opener.

Dietrich, driver of Gary Kauffman’s Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Pace Performance, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, Bowhunters Superstore, Drop Of Ink Tattoo, Sweeney Chevrolet Buick GMC, Self Made, Graver’s Garage, Racer’s New & Used Parts, No. 48 sprint car, finished tenth in Friday’s $10,000-to-win spectacle, not deterred by his ninth row starting position. 

In fact, although he missed the top-ten in Saturday’s finale, Dietrich still did his best to put on a passing clinic, first transfering through the evening’s Last Chance Showdown before climbing from 24th to finish 16th. Dietrich was forced to compete in the last chance race after missing a transfer spot in his respective heat race.

“It wasn’t exactly the weekend we were working for, but we’ll take these results and move forward. You’re not going to find fields as tough as this very often, so I wouldn’t say we are completely disappointed,” Dietrich said pertaining to the weekend. “Hats off to the team. It’s been a long season, but they never stopped working. Hats off to the fans, too. Pennsylvania has the best race fans in the world and if it wasn’t for them, none of this would be a reality. We’ll keep digging and work to end this season on top.”

Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing will continue their 2021 campaign with the Lincoln Speedway season finale on Saturday, October 16. “Double D” has one Lincoln win to his credit this season, earning his trip to the front stretch victory lane platform on March 13.
