That winner just happened to be their boss, Tony Stewart. Now, each has won a WoO A-Feature thanks to Stewart\u2019s dominant run on Wednesday night at Ohsweken (Ontario) Speedway in the opener of the Outlaws\u2019 eastern Canada swing. While Stewart turns his focus to this weekend\u2019s Brickyard 400, Kinser and Schatz look to add to their WoO victory totals (566 for Kinser and 108 for Schatz) when the Outlaws make their debut on Friday night at Brockville (Ontario) Speedway and compete for the second time at Autodromme Drummond in Drummondville, Quebec, on Saturday.<br \/>\n <!--more--><br \/>\nKinser, who drives the TSR No. 11 Bass Pro Shops\/J.D. Byrider\/Chevrolet Maxim, will look to add Brockville to the distinguished list of tracks where he\u2019s won the first time the traveling Winged Sprint car stars competed at a particular track. Last July, he was the Outlaws\u2019 first winner at Autodrome Drummond after passing Schatz for the lead. Schatz, driver of the TSR No. 15 STP\/Armor All\/Chevrolet J&#038;J, would like to score his second career win in Ontario and his first in Quebec.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s first of two ventures into Canada began Wednesday night when the Outlaws competed at Ohsweken. Both TSR drivers witnessed Stewart\u2019s first career WoO triumph behind the wheel of the TSR No. 14 Office Depot\/Mobil 1\/Coca-Cola J&#038;J. Schatz bounced back from qualifying 23rd in the field of 31 cars by charging from 20th starting position to sixth in the main event. Kinser, a 20-time WoO champion, won the third heat and finished 10th in the 30-lap A-Feature.<\/p>\n<p>Through 42 of the 69 scheduled nights of racing, Schatz ranks second in the 2011 WoO championship standings with 4,907 points, 24 behind leader Jason Meyers. The four-time WoO champion has three wins, 16 top-fives, and 29 top-10s. Kinser ranks third in the standings with 4,859 points, five wins, 16 top-fives, and 28 top-10s.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday at Brockville Speedway, the grandstands open at 5 p.m. EDT.
