Driver Roll Call for the Wild West Shootout?

[W2Racing09]

I would imagine after next week Scott, that this list will materialize. (after PRI) Feger without question would be cool to see in Tucson.
2015 NLRA Champ Dustin Strand out of Grand Forks, ND has made it known that he and his Team are coming. I am quite sure that Clay Daly, Jason Papich, and Tony Toste will be there as well.

Strand may be one to watch, he has some serious talent. I think he is driving a Longhorn car now (used to be a Victory Circle I believe) so I'm sure that will help too. I was very impressed with him the first time I saw him race at River Cities. He came from deep in the field to the top 5 in just a few laps. Went on to watch him win a few races out there and have kept tabs ever since.

Thanks,
Jeff.

You are correct. He is driving a Longhorn. I listened to his interview on Dirt Nation this morning, where he talked about almost winning a WoO show in his area this past season before getting an untimely flat. I am thinking I have seen him out here in a Mod before. Will be looking for him at this years WWS for sure.

Also listened to Jesse Stovall's interview this morning, and he is unsure if he's going to Az or Florida. He said his Team will run at one or the other.

Talked w/ Whitwell last weekend in Yuma and it seems his ride (Humphrey) has backed out for now, unless there is a sponsor come up w/ some money for them to bring the car out Agree on Thorton Norm-------- he had one helluva year in a mod and is every bit as smooth in a late model! Only a month away to my favorite shows of the year! Both Moyers according to Juniors interview.

Thought RC was going to drive for Jeff Manka #5 out of Phoenix? He has been running this car at WWS for years now. Humphreys wanted RC to run his car last year but had already committed to Manka. Wonder if Manka is not running that #5 car anymore.

Here's what I found, PF. Mark Bennings is listed under his profile on his website as Owner/Crew chief. It appears that Mr. Bennings owns a Heating and Air out of Prattsville, Ar.
Tim ran a lot of USMTS stuff this past season, so he may run both classes.

That is Culp's father in law.

It's my understanding that Manka sold the equipment he had, bought his wife a Corvette w/ the proceeds.

Add Lanigan again this year in Clint Boyer's Club 29 car.

[scottdomine22]

Confirmed w/ John Mars that Jimmy and AJ Diemel will both be heading to the WWSO again.... with a newly designed MB Customs chassis to test..... Also Don Oneal confirmed on FB to be coming

Thanks Scott. Keep 'em coming!
I too thought I heard in Vegas back in March that Manka had the car sold, but that was before RC popped the motor in the feature that same night. I wondered that night if the car was still sold. Ha.

[scottdomine22]

According to Dirt on Dirt - Steve Francis is working a deal that would bring him out the WWSO - he plans on announcing officially during the PRI show.......

Add Ronnie Lee Hollingsworth.

[scottdomine22]

Terry Phillips, Garrett Alberson, Chris Simpson, Chase Junghans, Jason Papich, Timothy Culp, Gordy Gundaker

This should prove to be the best W.W.S. (as far as quality of drivers attending) ever. I've got 3 years left, then empty nest...ahh, golf and racing during the winter in Arizona!

Going to keep bumping this to the top so it doesn't get lost as this event approaches.

Per an interview with DoD at PRI, Feger will more than likely start his 2016 season at LaSalle's Thaw Brawl.
