McCreadie Snaps Year-Long World of Outlaws Late Model Series Victory Drought In Dramatic ‘Wild West Tour’ Event At River Cities

By Kevin Kovac, WoO LMS P.R. Director

GRAND FORKS, ND – July 15, 2011 – ‘Top Side Timmy’ is back.

Tim McCreadie flashed vintage form on Friday night, snapping a year-long victory drought on the World of Outlaws Late Model Series with a dramatic, cushion-pounding drive to the checkered flag in the 50-lap ‘Wild West Tour’ A-Main at River Cities Speedway.

McCreadie, 37, of Watertown, N.Y., began running the extreme outside lane of the high-banked, quarter-mile oval midway through the race and proceeded to vault forward. He passed Jimmy Mars of Menomonie, Wis., for the lead on lap 31 and spent the remainder of the distance battling to stay out front in an event that saw four drivers in contention for the win on the final lap.

ROSSBURG, Ohio — July 16, 2011 — Everything was going Sammy Swindell’s way on Saturday night in the $50,000-to-win Kings Royal at Eldora Speedway … until the final corner. Swindell, who won his heat race to land on the pole in the specially-formatted event, had the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series crown jewel event locked up when suddenly his right rear tire went down as he came off Turn 4 and headed to the checkered flag. The huge crowd was stunned as it watched Tyler Walker shoot past a helpless Swindell and take the checkered flag. (CLICK FOR FULL RACE REPORT)

Runner-up Meyers reclaims World of Outlaws Sprint Car points lead over Schatz

ROSSBURG, Ohio – July 15, 2011 – Tim Shaffer had a nearly unbeatable car for most of the Knight Before the Kings Royal Friday at famed Eldora Speedway. In the final World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series event before the huge $50,000-to-win Kings Royal, Shaffer started from the pole, slid backwards then dueled with Jason Meyers until Shaffer finally pulled away down the stretch.

Shaffer, of Aliquippa, Pa., captured the dash and worked around Meyers, the defending World of Outlaws champion, on Lap 15 of the 30-lap A-main. The two drivers then thrilled the packed grandstands with a daring and breathtaking show for the fans.
