Lucas Wolfe wins WOO event at Bloomington
Posted by: | Comments
World of Outlaws
Wolfe’s Wait is Over after World of Outlaws Win in Bloomington
He leads the final 22 laps and survives a green-white-checkered finish
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Aug. 3, 2012 — It’s finally over.
There were hugs and high fives, smiles and tears, greeting a subdued Lucas Wolfe in Victory Lane on a muggy Friday evening at Bloomington Speedway. Wolfe led the final 22 laps to claim his first career World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series feature victory.
“I’m not very loud of any kind; I stay pretty even,” he said. “Obviously I’m usually this way on a terrible night and on the best of nights I stay pretty calm, but I’ll be pretty happy. I might do a bit of screaming in the helmet, but I’ll try to keep it pretty cool for right now.”
After many near wins during the last five seasons as an Outlaws driver and overcoming a gamut of mechanical woes this year, Wolfe had arguably the best car in Friday’s main event. He charged from his seventh starting position to the top three within the first 10 laps and took the lead before the midpoint. However, it wasn’t without drama.
Wolfe was leading by a straightaway with less than two laps remaining when the event’s second caution was waved for a spin by Kody Kinser in turn two. That erased Wolfe’s commanding advantage and he chose the inside lane on the double-file restart.
Wolfe powered into the lead, but the final caution came on the restart as Sammy Swindell and Kerry Madsen tangled in turn four. However, once again, Wolfe mastered the restart and drove away to the sizeable victory.
“I was a little bit worried about the double-file restarts from where the track might have got a little bit of rubber laid down, about how it was going to be to get going,” he said. “I felt the bottom was my best bet and obviously that was the wrong decision. I was able to get a good enough start there and obviously it didn’t count anyway because we had an accident.
“(I) certainly was happy to see it go back single file. That was a relief that we didn’t have to do anymore double-file restarts and were able to just finish it right there. I’d had enough; my nerves were about shot. (I was) certainly happy to finally finish a deal off.”
Joey Saldana, who led the first 18 laps after starting on the pole, lost the lead in traffic as Wolfe split him and a car about to be lapped while the trio raced down the backstretch. Saldana then held off Donny Schatz for the runner-up position.
“It’s well deserved,” Saldana said. “The guy’s been knocking on the door and having bad luck.
“He could maneuver through traffic really well. I could get through traffic as long as it went my way, but I couldn’t force the issue. I had to settle for second and I really had nothing for him.”
Both drivers shared a special moment with Wolfe in Victory Lane.
“I can still remember that feeling,” said Schatz as he reminisced about his first Outlaws win. “I’m happy for him. It’s been a long time coming. He should have won one long ago, but I’m sure tonight’s very special for him having to wait that long.”
Jason Sides passed Cody Darrah for fourth place on the final restart. Greg Wilson finished sixth, Kraig Kinser was seventh, Logan Schuchart ended eighth, Craig Dollansky placed ninth and Steve Kinser, who was involved in a flip on the opening lap and had to restart 21st, rounded out the top 10.

Back to Back Rainouts Set Up ‘Friends of Mike’ Labor Day Weekend Double Header
New Egypt, NJ – Mother Nature has certainly not been kind to New Egypt Speedway in the past five days as both F.O.M. events fell victim to the weather. After Saturday’s on and off again thunderstorms and Wednesday’s steady rain, NES management was forced to reschedule their 7th Annual Friends of Mike race yet one more time.
The much-anticipated 100-lap F.O.M. $10,000-to-win Modified event will now take center stage on Labor Day Monday, September 3rd. The Sportsman division will make up the second half of the two-division program, as they will also compete in their own Friends of Mike $1,500-to-win 25-lap event.
“We looked at every possibility of a make-up date this morning, and to be honest this date stood out the most,” offered track manager Danny Serrano. “With no other tracks running a conflicting modified or sportsman event that we are aware of, we felt that this date gives the fans the best chance to see a Friends of Mike Night that they won’t soon forget. A lot of the fans have off that Monday and we’d love for them to spend their day with us here at NES in what has now become one of the most anticipated modified races of the season,” Serrano added.
The Modified portion of the program will remain the same with all drivers drawing for starting positions for the $500-to-win heat races and feature starting spots. The Xtreme Graphics Rogie Rumble III will also be on the docket as 13 drivers will wage war in the one-on-one popular match races. The last man standing will receive a quick $1,000, trophy, and life-size check courtesy of Xtreme Graphics.
The Sportsman segment will see a change from the original scheduled format from July 28. The ‘Invitational’ portion of the program has been dropped. The new format will find the Sportsman competing in an ‘open’ show with all competitors drawing for heat race and feature starting positions. Sportsman heat race winners will receive the traditional F.O.M. bonuses as they have in the past.
The Gift Auction will resume Monday afternoon prior the starting time of 4pm. The annual auction helps raise money that directly goes into the purses for all the divisions for Friends of Mike. Hundreds of framed pictures, gift baskets, NASCAR and Dirt collectibles, and all kinds of racing goodies will all be up for grabs on Monday afternoon.
The Saturday, September 1st schedule for NES has been adjusted accordingly to accommodate the modified teams for Monday’s 100 lap event. The modifieds have now been removed from Saturday’s schedule and have been replaced with the Outlaw Stocks. The Outlaw Stocks will join the Crate-1 Sportsman, TSRS 305 Sprint Cars, and the Fastrak Late Models in a four-division show. The make-up Twin 20 modified feature orginally from April 28 will now be added to the September 8 racing program.
The Outlaw Stock portion of the show has been redesigned as a normal handicapped point show that will now carry the same F.O.M. purse as posted from the original race date. The $1,000-to-win feature will now be increased to 30 laps rather than the originally scheduled 20 laps. The winners of the heat races will receive cash awards in traditional F.O.M. fashion.
The Crate-1 Sportsman, who were already scheduled to compete on September 1, will compete in their Friends of Mike race as well, rather than originally scheduled October 27 date. The Crate-1 drivers will be competing in a 40-lap $1,200-to-win handicapped full point show.
With a busy Labor Day Weekend planned in the tri-state area, NES management is fully aware of the important races taking place throughout the weekend. “I think it’s truly a tremendous weekend to be a race fan in our area, especially with the other big races prior to Friends of Mike,’ suggested the track's general manager.
Any fans that attend Brideport’s Friday night Poker Race, the NES Saturday racing program, or Big Diamond’s Sunday Coal Cracker show will receive a $5 discount (with proof of track’s wristband) at the front gate on Monday.
“We know that the race fans will have many choices to make that weekend. We just wanted to offer a little something to make it easier on them if they want to attend this year’s Friends of Mike Race after visiting their home tracks earlier in the weekend. We're also going to start a little earlier on Monday so we can have the fans and race teams home at a reasonable hour,” added Serrano
All gates will open at 1pm and racing will start at 4pm on Monday, September 3. Adult admission is $30, students 12-15 are $15, and children 11 and under are FREE. Pit admission is $40 no license required. For more information please call the speedway at 609-758-1900 or log on to www.newegyptspeedway.net.
