INDIANAPOLIS (July 15, 2015) – It’s been a historic start to the 2015 World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Car Series campaign for Tony Stewart-Curb Agajanian Racing’s (TSR) Donny Schatz and his Bad Boy Buggies/Chevrolet Performance team. And this weekend, the six-time and reigning WoO champion looks to continue his incredible season in the 32nd annual Kings Royal at Tony Stewart’s Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio.
SHREWSBURY, Mass. (July 14, 2015) – Rob Fuller Motorsports and 15-40 Connection will get two rounds of action at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in the modifieds this week as Ron Silk will compete in the All-Star Shootout and the New Hampshire 100.
“We’re excited to have Ron driving the No. 15 at Loudon. He’s got a ton of experience there including two wins. This weekend we’ll be focusing on getting our car in Victory Lane for 15-40 Connection,” said Rob Fuller, team owner. “Corey (LaJoie) has been busy with the Super Late Model program and travel has become time consuming. So we are planning to run one car for a majority of the NWMT races. But, when the schedule is open and there are no conflicts with the Super Late Models, we’ll get Corey back in the modified and run two cars at a few races.”
KANNAPOLIS, N.C. (July 14, 2015) – As Danica Patrick and the No. 10 GoDaddy Chevrolet SS team for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR) look to get their season back on solid footing, there’s no better place to make that happen than this weekend’s New Hampshire 301 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race in the “Granite State” at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Patrick’s 2015 season got off to a solid start with two top-10s and five top-20 finishes in the first eight races of the season, but in recent weeks sub-par finishes have been out of her control. And after three-straight weeks where accidents have knocked her out of contention for a solid finish, Patrick has dropped to 22nd in the Sprint Cup driver point standings.

WEST HAVEN, VT – Local stock car drivers will feel double the pressure at Devil’s Bowl Speedway on Friday night, July 10, as The Rutland Herald presents the annual Mid-Season Championships at 7:30 p.m. Point values will be doubled, making every position twice as critical in all four divisions of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series presented by Yandow Sales & Service and John Deere.
Because of the greater point values, the Mid-Season Championship is viewed by many as a “make or break” event that sets up the second-half stretch drive toward the titles. The winners of Friday night’s feature events will score 100 points toward the championship, with each subsequent position decreasing by four points. Preliminary heat races are each worth 10 points to win.

HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. (July 8, 2015) – When Kyle Busch was approached by M&M’S to re-create scenes from the blockbuster movie Days of Thunder, celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, he didn’t need any convincing that it was a great idea.
