Record Number Of Events On 2013 World of Outlaws Late Model Series Schedule

Busy Campaign Will Bring National Tour To At Least 38 Tracks In 21 States & Canada

CONCORD, NC – Nov. 29, 2012 – A record number of events appear on the 2013 World of Outlaws Late Model Series schedule, which was released on Thursday during the Performance Racing Industry trade show in Orlando, Fla.

Fifty-four race dates comprising 49 A-Mains at 38 tracks in 21 states and Canada are currently confirmed as part of the national tour’s ambitious 2013 itinerary, including an unprecedented season-opening slate of eight events in Georgia and Florida during the month of February.

The milestone 10th consecutive WoO LMS campaign under the World Racing Group banner will commence for the second straight year with the ‘Winter Freeze’ on Feb. 8-9 at Screven Motor Speedway in Sylvania, Ga. A format change will turn the event into a doubleheader featuring an $8,000-to-win 40-lapper on Friday night and a 50-lap, $10,000-to-win A-Main on Saturday evening.

Also part of the busy first month of World of Outlaws action is the second annual Bubba Army Late Model Winter Nationals on Feb. 15-17 at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla – a three-night extravaganza topped by the historic ‘Super Sunday Showdown’ paying $20,000 to win – and the traditional visit to Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Fla., for the UNOH DIRTcar Nationals Presented by Summit Racing Equipment, which in 2013 includes three complete WoO LMS programs on Feb. 21-23.

Bubba Raceway Park’s ‘Super Sunday Showdown’ on Feb. 17 stands as one of a half-dozen mega-money shows spread across the 2013 schedule. The list of marquee events also includes the $50,000-to-win USA Nationals on Aug. 1-3 at Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wis.; the seventh annual Firecracker 100 on June 27-29 at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pa.; the fifth annual Illini 100 on April 5-6 at Farmer City (Ill.) Raceway; the inaugural Buckeye 100 on April 12-13 at Wayne County Speedway in Orrville, Ohio; and the Memorial Day weekend ‘Bullring Bonanza’ on May 25-26 at Tyler County Speedway in Middlebourne, W.Va..

The ’13 season will conclude for the seventh straight year with a pair of 50-lap A-Mains during the PEAK Motor Oil World of Outlaws World Finals Presented by NAPA Auto Parts on Nov. 7-9 at The Dirt Track at Charlotte in Concord, N.C.

With several dates still to be added to the 2013 schedule, the tour’s alltime single-season highs of 44 A-Mains (2007 and 2010) and 38 different host tracks (2010) are in line to be surpassed.

“We’re looking forward to a 2013 season that promises more World of Outlaws Late Model Series racing than ever before,” said Tim Christman, who will serve as the WoO LMS director for the seventh consecutive year. “With help from great racetrack promoters across the country, we’ve been able to put together a schedule that will produce plenty of excitement for fans and present a challenge for the drivers.”

The richest event in 2013 remains Cedar Lake Speedway’s 100-lap USA Nationals, a crown-jewel race that will be showcased on the World of Outlaws trail for the fourth consecutive year and seventh time overall in its 25-year history. The Aug. 1-3 spectacular will be an all-World of Outlaws weekend in ’13 as well with the Thursday-night preliminary program becoming a full-points WoO LMS show paying $6,000 to win.

Lernerville’s Firecracker 100, meanwhile, will boast three full nights of competition for the fourth year in a row. An early-summer spectacular known for its fan-pleasing excitement both on and off the track, the Firecracker weekend begins with 30-lap, $6,000-to-win preliminary features on Thurs., June 27, and Fri., June 28, before ending with the traditional 100-lap headliner offering $30,000 for first place on Sat., June 29

Century grinds offering $20,000 first-place prizes will also be contested on back-to-back spring weekends – the Illini 100 at the quarter-mile Farmer City oval on April 5-6, and the Buckeye 100 on April 12-13 at Wayne County. The Illini 100 will run at a Farmer City track under new management in 2013, while Wayne County’s husband-and-wife promotional team of Jason and Kristin Flory will present a huge two-day show after earlier this year successfully bringing the WoO LMS back to the central Ohio facility for the first time since 2006.

Another major early-season event is set for Tyler County, the quarter-mile Mountaineer State oval that has gained nationwide acclaim for its unique high-dollar WoO LMS affairs the past two years. Promoter Frank Wilson will focus on the Memorial Day holiday for his marquee show in 2013, expanding the ‘Bullring Bonanza’ to two days on Saturday-Sunday, May 25-26. Details of the race format and purse structure are still to be determined, but it is expected that the Bonanza’s race-fan lottery/raffle that proved so popular this year will be replayed.

The ’13 schedule also will feature a pair of late-season doubleheaders at Selinsgrove (Pa.) Speedway (Aug. 31/Sept. 1) and Berlin Raceway in Marne, Mich. (Sept. 20-21). Details of the twinbills will be released at a later date, but complete WoO LMS cards will be run on each night of the weekends.

Selinsgrove promoter Charlie Paige has decided to present two WoO LMS A-Mains after his attempt to host the tour for the first time in 2012 was rained out. The Labor Day weekend event will rekindle the circuit’s summer-ending holiday doubleheaders in the Keystone State that were run from 2006-2010 at Tri-City Speedway in Franklin.

The paved 7/16th-mile Berlin Raceway, meanwhile, will once again be covered with clay for WoO LMS action after this year’s ‘Down & Dirty 100’ was such a thrilling hit. The weekend format will be changed to give race teams and fans two full nights of full-fender competition.
