World of Outlaws Late Model Series Prepares For Northeast Stops At Delaware International Speedway & Hagerstown Speedway
NASCAR Star Kenny Schrader Among Drivers Expected For May 31 Event At Delaware International
CONCORD, NC – May 21, 2007 – The World of Outlaws Late Model Series will visit some familiar turf when it returns to the Northeast for the second time this season.
Delaware International Speedway in Delmar is back on the tour after a year’s absence on Thurs., May 31, and Hagerstown (Md.) Speedway will host the series for the fourth consecutive season on Sat., June 2.
The ‘First State 50’ at Charlie Cathell’s Delaware International Speedway and the 26th annual ‘Conococheague 50’ at Hagerstown Speedway will each offer a $10,000 first prize.
The mid-week special at DIS will mark the WoO LMS’s third appearance at the half-mile oval but first since July 6, 2005, when Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky., emerged victorious.
A big night is anticipated at Delaware International, which will feature the nation’s premier dirt Late Model series as NASCAR’s spring weekend at Dover International Speedway kicks off just 45 minutes to the north. The scheduling will give several NASCAR Nextel Cup drivers with dirt Late Model ties an opportunity to compete in the ‘First State 50,’ including veteran Kenny Schrader, who has made plans to enter the WoO LMS action.
The traveling caravan will move several hours to the northwest on Sat., June 2, to complete the late-spring double-dip at Hagerstown Speedway, a well-known half-mile clay oval that will present its sixth WoO LMS event since 2004.
This will be the third time that the WoO LMS sanctions Hagerstown’s prestigious ‘Conococheague 50,’ a traditional event that has now been contested for more than a quarter-century. WoO LMS stars Rick Eckert of York, Pa. (2004) and Clint Smith of Senoia, Ga. (2006) are previous winners of the ‘Conococheague 50’ under the WoO LMS banner.
The torrid WoO LMS points race will begin its push into a busy summer stretch at Delaware International and Hagerstown. Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., who has never competed at either Northeast track, currently leads the point standings by a mere six markers over Smith, with Eckert, Steve Francis of Ashland, Ky., Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va., Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa., and Chris Madden of Gray Court, S.C., all within 100 points of the top spot.
Reserved-seat tickets are now on sale for both the Delaware International and Hagerstown events.
