World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series at a Glance

Rolling Wheels Raceway Park, Orange County Fair Speedway, Hagerstown Speedway

ELBRIDGE, N.Y. – May 14, 2012 – Following a successful stint in Pennsylvania against the Posse, the World of Outlaws concludes its first East Coast swing of the season with a trip to New York and the lone event in Maryland this week.

Rolling Wheels Raceway Park will host its first Spring race since 2008 on Wednesday. Steve Kinser, who claimed his first victory of the season last weekend to move within eight points of the championship lead, won the 2008 event – one of his series-best 11 victories at the semi-banked, 5/8-mile track.

The series shifts to another New York 5/8-mile oval on Saturday at Orange County Fair Speedway in Middletown, where it hasn’t raced since 2008. Kinser leads the Outlaws with five feature wins in 21 races.

The swing ends on Sunday at Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, Md., for another round of the Ollie’s Bargain Outlet presents the Kasey Kahne Challenge brought to you by O’Neill Race Gear. Sammy Swindell, the current World of Outlaws points leader, has won a series-best seven races at the semi-banked, half-mile track – including the last one in 2005.

Kinser Restores World of Outlaws Pride with Morgan Cup Victory

The King dominates features at Williams Grove, tightens championship points race

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. — May 12, 2012 — Steve Kinser cruised to a pair of victories Saturday at a packed and rowdy Williams Grove Speedway, first snapping his 27-race winless streak with the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series and later claiming the Morgan Cup on behalf of the series.

Kinser, the World of Outlaws career wins leader, entered the event with only five feature laps led this season. That changed dramatically as he led the final 23 laps of the $12,000-to-win main event and then dominated all 12 laps of the Morgan Cup – a race featuring five World of Outlaws drivers and five Pennsylvania Posse drivers in a showdown about bragging rights, a sterling silver trophy and an additional $4,000 prize.

“We had been running top fives, but hadn’t been able to get to Victory Lane,” Kinser said. “We got two tonight.”

It was his 571st World of Outlaws feature win and 38th total Outlaws victory at the famed half mile. Both numbers are more than double the next closest driver.
