A Very Busy Stretch: Kraig Kinser Embarks on First East Coast Swing of the Season

BLOOMINGTON, Ind.—May 14, 2013— Five races in seven nights. If it was up to Kraig Kinser and just about most other drivers that’s how every week would be on the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series trail. For one week, the drivers will get their wish as the first East Coast Swing of the season will find the series hitting the track for five nights of racing at four different venues over the course of a one week period.
The East Coast Swing opens for Kinser aboard his Casey’s General Stores/Mesilla Valley Transportation Maxim on Wednesday, May 15 at Lincoln Speedway in Abbottstown, Pa. The series then heads to the legendary Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pa., for a two-night event on Friday, May 17 and Saturday, May 18. An overnight trip to New York will find the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series at Orange County Fair Speedway in Middletown on Sunday, May 19. A return to New Egypt Speedway in New Jersey for the first time since 2007 is set for Tuesday, May 21.
“Along with being most of the busiest stretches of the season, the next week will be one of the toughest as well in terms of the competition we’ll face night in and night out,” said Kinser. “The guys in Pennsylvania know Lincoln and Williams Grove so well and they take a lot of pride in defending their home turf. We have to really be on our game heading out there.”
Kinser made his debut at Lincoln Speedway last season, as the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series made their first visit to the three-eighths-mile near Hanover, Pa., since 1998. He finished 24th in the main event, against a very strong field as 45 drivers who attempted to earn a spot in the 30-lapper.
The native of Bloomington, Ind., earned a pair of top-10 finishes at Williams Grove Speedway last season, including the best finish of his career at the half-mile during the Summernationals in July, when he came home fourth. Kinser followed that up by finishing seventh on the first night of the National Open in the fall. The third-generation driver has made a total of 28 main event starts at Williams Grove in his career, including preliminary features, dating back to 2003.
“We had a couple of good runs at Williams Grove last season, so hopefully we can use a little bit of what we learned on those nights when we go back this week,” Kinser stated. “First and foremost, you have to time trial well and put yourself in a position in the heat race to either make the dash or at least transfer into the feature. The whole night is a pretty intense one when you go up to Williams Grove and you have to be spot-on each time you hit the track.”
Last season Kinser finished 15th at Orange County Fair Speedway after losing a tire while running second on the final lap. He opened the event by turning the eighth-fastest lap in time trials and followed that up by winning the second heat race to earn a spot in the dash, where he came home second to secure a front row starting sport for the 25-lap main event. Kinser has made three starts in his career at Orange County, with the first of those coming in 2004, when he recorded a seventh-place finish.
“Orange County is Orange County, there is really no place like it,” he noted. “You certainly see the speed of a sprint there and the surface is pretty unique as well with how hard the clay is. Track position is pretty important there, so hopefully we can qualify in the right spot and get in the dash and have a chance to start near the front of the field.”
Kinser will be making the first start of his career at New Egypt Speedway as well as his first start in the state of New Jersey. The seventh-sixteenths-mile will be hosting the series for the first time since 2007 and the fifth time overall. Kinser has raced at three tracks for the first time this year. In his career he has three wins with the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series when visiting a track for the first time.
“The series hasn’t been to New Egypt for a handful of years, so hopefully that is a bit of an advantage for me, since I’ve never been there at all,” Kinser shared. “Racing at bigger tracks each of the three races before at Williams Grove and Orange County, we should have a good baseline to start the night with and kind of know what direction we need to go.”
Kinser heads to the East Coast 12th in the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series championship standings. He has eight top-10 finishes on the year, of which three are top-five performances.

RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES
JJ GRASSO POCKETS $3,600 WITH JACK GUNN MEMORIAL VICTORY SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE SELINSGROVE SPEEDWAY
JJ Grasso of Middletown, DE scored an impressive win Saturday night at the Selinsgrove Speedway, winning the 8th Annual URC/358 Jack Gunn Memorial. The thirty lap feature win earned Grasso $3,600 in a thriller that saw Grasso chase down race leader Pat Cannon in the final five laps. A late race caution brought the field nose to tail for the final three laps. Grasso was closing on Cannon prior to the yellow, but when the green flag fell, Cannon developed motor problems, handing the lead over to Grasso. It was certainly no gift as Grasso was the fastest car on the track in the second half of the race. On the final lap, Grasso lost his brakes and on the cool down lap, developed a right rear flat tire on the Kenny Eldreth owned sprinter. For Grasso, it was his first career win at the Selinsgrove Speedway.
At the start of the 30 lap Jack Gunn Memorial, Jason Shultz led the twenty-six car starting field into turn one. Before exiting turn two, the red flag was displayed for a nine car crash. Chad Trout and Derek Locke sustained the most damage of the cars involved. On the restart, Shultz set the place and led the first lap with Cody Keller taking the top spot on lap two. Keller set the pace until a lap four caution for debris. On the restart, Keller was on top with Pat Cannon now in second. A caution was displayed on lap five, this time for Eric Tomecek.
The field restarted with Keller, Cannon and Mark Smith holding down the top three spots with URC’s JJ Grasso racing in fourth. On lap eight, Jason Shultz popped a tire on the homestretch and as the yellow was displayed, Matt Horst flipped out of the track, exiting over the fourth turn guardrail. Horst was not injured in the crash.
On the restart, Cody Keller remained the race leader with Cannon and Smith still in the chase. JJ Grasso and TJ Stutts made up the top five and were reeling in the leaders. At the halfway point of the race, Keller and Cannon were in a battle for the lead then one lap later, Pat Cannon powered into the top spot. At the same time, Grasso moved into third and was charging
With just five laps to go, Grasso moved past Keller and now had the task of chasing down Cannon. Grasso was definitely closing then on lap twenty-seven, the yellow was displayed for Dave Ely.
The restart was going to be a thriller with just three laps to go and Cannon and Grasso nose to tail. A sudden puff of smoke going into turn one and Cannon was off the pace and Grasso was now in command. Grasso mastered the final laps to take the victory with Cody Keller second, Mark Smith third, TJ Stutts fourth and Aaron Ott fifth. Making up the top ten were Josh Weller, Ryan Kissinger, Colby Womer, Randy West and Jason Shultz.

2013 RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES
32 CARS COMPETE IN RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES OPENER. . . .
DEFENDING CHAMPION ROBBIE STILLWAGGON CHARGES FROM FOURTEENTH TO WIN THE PIONEER POLE BUILDINGS 25 LAP URC SPRINT FEATURE FRIDAY NIGHT AT BIG DIAMOND
The sixty-sixth season of the Nation’s oldest traveling sprint car organization, the URC Sprint Series, officially opened on Friday night at the Big Diamond Speedway with defending champion Robbie Stillwaggon taking the lead in the late stages of the event. After starting fourteenth, the Burlington, NJ racer took the lead on lap twenty-two of the twenty-five lap feature and went on to win his fourth career URC win. The Rislone URC Sprint Series event was sponsored by Pioneer Pole Buildings and Stillwaggon earned $2,000 for the victory. Stillwaggon earned a $50 bonus for passing the most cars, advancing thirteen spots in the feature event.
A field of thirty cars turned out for a chilly night of racing. Troy Betts was the winner of the Engler Machine & Tool heat race as Bryn Gohn won the Brad Penn Oil heat race with Davie Franek winning the Pioneer Pole Buildings third heat race of the night. The Bar’s Leaks “B” winner was Dave Ely.
Twenty-four cars answered the call for the 25 lap Pioneer Pole Buildings feature event. At the start of the feature, Bryn Gohn established himself as the race leader, holding off a determined Davie Franek with Tim Kelly close in the chase. Franek continued to pressure Gohn for the lead then on lap five, the yellow was displayed for Dave Ely who spun exiting turn two. On the restart, Gohn and Franek continued their battle for the lead and as the leader entered turn one, Kelly took a wild flip, displaying the red flag. Kelly walked away uninjured.
On the restart, Gohn and Franek resumed their battler with JJ Grasso racing in third with Brian Carber (in his first URC start) racing in fourth with Robbie Stillwaggon in fifth by lap six. One lap later, Jonathan Swanson came to a stop displaying the caution flag once again.
Gohn continued to be the front runner with Franek in the chase, then on lap thirteen, Franek powered into the lead position, and at the same time, JJ Grasso moved into second. Following in the top five was Bryn Gohn, Robbie Stillwaggon and Brian Carber.
As the field was completing lap fourteen, Franek was the leader with Grasso trying to close the gap. Grasso, tapped the inside fourth turn tire. After passing the flag stand, Grasso’s car headed to the infield out of control, before hitting another tire and wildly flipping while entering turn one. Grasso walked away uninjured.
On the restart, Franek set the pace followed by Gohn with Stillwaggon now in third. On lap twenty-one, Stillwaggon made a move and powered into second. And now, the two drivers that were battling over the Rislone URC Championship in 2012, are now battling for a win in 2013. On lap twenty-two, Stillwaggon powered by Franek to take the lead and he managed to stay the front runner until the drop of the checker flag. Stillwaggon took the win followed by Davie Franek with Bryn Gohn third, Brian Carber fourth and fifth place finisher Kevin Darling.
Brian Carber in his first URC start delivered a solid fourth place finish. Billy Pauch Jr was also very impressive, after finishing second in the “B” Main, Pauch returned to deliver an impressive eighth place finish in the feature.
25 LAP FEATURE FINISH: Robbie Stillwaggon, Davie Franek, Bryn Gohn, Brian Carber, Kevin Darling, Joey Biasi, Josh Weller, Billy Pauch Jr., Kramer Williamson, Chad Trout, Randy West, Joe Zuczek, Troy Betts, Dan Mazy, Andy Best, Jimmy Stitzel, Duane Mausteller, Mark Bitner, Eddie Wagner, JJ Grasso, Jimmy Reppert, Jonathan Swanson, Tim Kelly, Dave Ely, DNQ- - Art Liedl, David Swanson, Scott Lutz, JR Berry, Daniel Cogeill, Will Eggiman, Aaron Ott, Steve Downs.

Kreitz of old defeats UNOH All Stars at Williams Grove

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MECHANICSBURG, PA. – When a dirt track’s racing surface is heavy and wet, it’s often the younger driver who show case their talents. But, when a track surface gets wide and slick like it did Friday at Williams Grove Speedway, it’s veterans like Don Kreitz Jr. who show they can still be tough to beat.
The Sinking Spring, Pa. resident ran the inside groove to perfection and would drive from his 10th starting spot to grab the lead from Fred Rahmer on lap 12 and go on to record his seventh career University of Northwestern Ohio All Star Circuit of Champions victory. Kreitz has been running a limited schedule over the past few years, focusing mainly on Williams Grove Speedway. In fact, Friday’s UNOH All Star win is his first with the series since 1999.
“It was a great race for us. Davey (Brown) and the guys made a lot of changes from the heat race and had the car really hooked-up. He’s a big part of the team. He still does the engines and set-up on the car,” said Kreitz beside his Henry R. Sherman Builders, Kreitz Oval Track Parts/RV Workshop.com/Schannauer #69k.
Kreitz sliced through the field from his fifth row starting spot to grab third from four time UNOH All Star champion Tim Shaffer with 11 laps completed. Rahmer, who has been hot so far this season in his new Rob Sell owned team, had started on the pole and after trading the lead with Shaffer early in the 30-lap feature, was fending off Jac Haudenschild for the lead as Kreitz took third. Kreitz would get under “The Wild Child” for second off turn two and then slipped under Rahmer in turns three and four to grab the lead on lap 12.
“I just caught the leaders right,” said Kreitz. “They didn’t know the bottom was coming in and our car was really dialed-in there early and left us getup through.”
After taking the lead, Kreitz would build a big advantage in a race that had only one caution – that coming on lap 14. Kreitz would catch lapped traffic with a seven laps to go and Rahmer closed, but the bottom was the preferred groove and all Rahmer could do was follow Kreitz to the checkered.
“I didn’t want to chance going around them so I waited for them to make a mistake,” said Kreitz of the lapped traffic. “Fred would have deserved to win if he had drive around us. You’re always worried when you get into lapped cars.”
The victory was the 55th of Kreitz’ career at the Grove, to rank third on the track’s all-time win list. It was his first win at the track since September 2010.
“I haven’t won here in a little while and to get a win early here like this is good for our team,” said Kreitz, who was disqualified the last time he won an All Star race at the Grove in 2005 for being under weight.
For Rahmer, the second place run continues his early season great runs and keeps him in the William Grove Speedway points lead.
“Track took some rubber. But, I love these Hoosier tires…they have saved my ass,” said Rahmer beside his Don Ott Racing Engines/Triple X Racing/Art’s Radiator/TruLine Contractors/JM Bullion/Media Camping Center/Trevdan Building Supply/Blue Tree Landscaping/Aran Trading backed #20s. “Don was just too strong on the bottom.”
Shaffer, coming off an open competition win last week at Fremont Speedway, was confident the Aaron Call/Janet Holbrook Racing team has turned the corner and is set for a great season.
“We are communicating well and the driver isn’t screwing up,” joked Shaffer beside his Kistler Engines/J&J Auto Racing/ Weld Wheels/FK Rod Ends/VRP Shocks backed #83. “It was a good race…I may have started racing for the lead too early. But, hats off to Donnie…that’s the Donnie Kreitz of old. He put an ass-whopping to us.”
Shaffer’s third place run narrowed the gap in the UNOH All Star’s National points, moving him to within 27 of Dale Blaney for the lead. In the series’ Eastern Region, Shaffer climbed to within just 3 points of Blaney while Lance Dewease, a former Eastern Region champion and 6 time Williams Grove champion, closed to within 7 points of the lead with his fourth place run.

RYAN WILSON SCORES RISLONE URC SPRINT SERIES VICTORY IN JUST HIS FIFTH START SATURDAY NIGHT AT PORT ROYAL SPEEDWAY
It was only the second time in history that the URC Sprints visited the Port Royal Speedway and on that night (June 24, 1967), veteran driver Earl Halaquist took the win.
Saturday night, it was Maytown, PA driver Ryan Wilson who scored his first career Rislone URC Sprint Series feature win worth $2,000. Wilson, in just his fifth start with URC took the lead on lap nine from Bryn Gohn and survived several late race cautions to earn the win. URC continues to draw solid car counts with thirty-one sprints taking part in the program. The well prepared Port Royal Speedway provide numerous racing grooves for the URC drivers and a strong crowd was on hand for this historic URC return to Port Royal.
The three heat race events were won by Chad Trout, Bryn Gohn and Joey Biasi as Nate Snyder took the win the “B” Main. Chad Trout earned a $50 bonus for setting the Likewise fast time of the night as Robbie Stillwaggon was the Fred’s Trailer Parts hard charger, advancing twelve positions in the feature event.
In the URC sprint feature, Bryn Gohn set the early pace with Chad Trout and Josh Weller in the hunt. Ryan Wilson moved into third then on lap four, he advanced to second.
The first yellow of the race was displayed on lap seven when Steve Downs spun in turn three. On the restart, Gohn had to immediately deal with Wilson who was challenging for the lead. Gohn and Wilson were side-by-side with Wilson holding a slight advantage on lap nine. On lap ten, Kyle Reinhart took a slow roll entering turn one displaying the red flag. Reinhart was not injured.
With the drop of the green flag, Wilson was in solid command with Gohn in the hunt. As the field passed for the halfway mark, Wilson remained on top followed by Gohn, Chad Trout, Josh Weller and JJ Grasso. Jay Galloway brought out the caution on lap fifteen when he stopped on the track.
When the race resumed, Wilson was untouchable and continued to set the pace. Lap sixteen was wild as Ed Aikin flipped after a tangle with Randy West and Art Liedl. All drivers walked away uninjured.
Ryan Wilson once again brought the field down for the double-file restart and out ran Bryn Gohn into turn one. Wilson set the pace and now JJ Grasso was challenging Gohn for second. On lap nineteen, Gohn and Grasso tangled going into turn one and one lap later, Grasso retired to the points. On lap twenty-one, Trout passed Gohn for the runner-up spot and tried to reel in the leader. Robbie Stillwaggon, who started deep in the pack was now racing in fifth.
With the checker flag waiving, Wilson took the victory over Chad Trout, Bryn Gohn, Josh Weller and Robbie Stillwaggon.
Point leader Davie Franek finished ninth as runner-up in points, Robbie Stillwaggon finished fifth. Franek’s point lead is less then thirty points going into Delaware International on Saturday night, September 1. After Delaware International, just two events remain on the Rislone URC point chase with stops at New Egypt Speedway and the season finale at the Grandview Speedway on Saturday night, October 13 where the URC champion will be crowned.
