By Brian Liskai: (Attica, OH) The best dirt track sprint car drivers in the world will once again sling the clay at Attica Raceway Park on Friday, May 21st, and fans can reserve their seat for the excitement!
Reserve seats – top five rows of the middle grandstands – are on sale now for $30 (add $2 per ticket for credit card processing) for the Kistler Engines Classic with the World of Outlaw Sprint Car Series. Also in competitor that night will be the Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop UMP DIRTcar Late Models. Call (419) 680-5606 now to make sure you have a seat for the great racing as all reserved seats sold out for last year’s World of Outlaws Sprint Car event.
Last year at “Ohio’s Finest Racing” speedplant, Hartford, Ohio’s Dale Blaney scored his first World of Outlaws win since 2004. Blaney took the lead on lap 30 when four-time World of Outlaws champion Donny Schatz got forced into the front stretch wall by a lapped machine and spun, and was hit hard by Lee Jacobs. Prior to that incident, Blaney had steadily worked his way up from his fifth starting spot and had been engaged in a tremendous battle with Jason Meyers. Once in the lead, Blaney could not shake Meyers who finished just a car length back in second.
The excitement will continue this year as “The King” Steve Kinser is now behind the wheel of a Tony Stewart Racing machine along with Schatz as a teammate. Last season’s winningest World of Outlaws driver Joey Saldana, piloting the Kasey Kahne Racing Budweiser #9, will be tough to beat at Attica, as will Meyers and Craig Dollansky aboard the #7 Big Game Tree Stands ride. Then throw in PA Posse drivers like Stevie Smith, Lucas Wolfe, Ed Lynch Jr. and the tough Attica weekly competitors of Byron Reed, Craig Mintz, Chris Andrews, Mark Keegan, Brock Mayes, Mike Linder and more and you have the recipe for a perfect night of excitement and fun.
