As the saying goes, “all good things must come to an end.” Elite Racing’s five race winning streak this weekend ended at the Talladega Short Track, but that does not tarnish the dominance that Jason Meyers has shown in the last two months. Also, Meyers became the first driver in ten years to win five consecutive races. As competitive as the World of Outlaws series is, Meyers has turned the 2011 season around and is close to emerging from the year as Champion.
Granger, IA—Oct. 23, 2011— Having a race car that gets faster as the night goes on, is something that most drivers and crews strive for on the World of Outlaws circuit. Kraig Kinser was in that exact position on Saturday night at Talladega (Ala.) Short Track during the Sage Fruit Showdown as he powered his way to a third-place finish aboard the Casey’s General Store Maxim, picking up a number of positions over the second half of the 35-lap main event.
The Sage Fruit Showdown at Talladega (Ala.) Short Track on Saturday night proved to be a showcase for Tony Stewart Racing’s (TSR) Steve Kinser, Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart. Each driver had his moment in the spotlight as the Outlaws returned to the 1/3-mile high-banked, clay oval for the first time since the spring of 2004. When the dust settled following the 35-lap A-Feature, Schatz had earned his ninth runner-up finish of the season, Kinser collected his 30th top-five, and Stewart showed why he is regarded as one of the most talented drivers in motorsports.
Screven Motor Speedway Management Cancels World of Outlaws Late Model Series Event Set For Wed., Nov. 2
By Kevin Kovac, WoO LMS P.R. Director
SYLVANIA, GA – Oct. 24, 2011 – The World of Outlaws Late Model Series event scheduled for Wed., Nov. 2, at Screven Motor Speedway has been canceled, track owner Redd Griffin announced on Monday.
The national tour was set to compete at the three-eighths-mile oval as part of the track’s rescheduled ‘Winter Freeze’ program, a doubleheader featuring dirt Late Models and the All-Star Circuit of Champions Sprint Car Series that was rained out on its original date in February. Griffin added a World of Outlaws sanction to the full-fender portion of the twinbill after the WoO LMS’s lone 2011 visit to Screven on March 26 was washed out by thunderstorms.
