As the calendar reaches the annual Independence Day Holiday, Steve Kinser and Donny Schatz will continue their tour of some of America’s toughest dirt tracks. Thursday night, the Outlaws make their annual early July stop at Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, SD followed by another exciting race at North Central Speedway in Brainerd, MN on Saturday.
In a recent interview with True Speed Communication, Steve Kinser commented on his upcoming races: “We’ve been good at Huset’s before, and then the next time we came back and found ourselves in trouble. I think we’ve only raced in Brainerd once, so we’ll have to feel that one out as we go.”
Donny Schatz also talked about his experience racing at Huset’s Speedway: “I’ve had a lot of fun racing at Huset’s, and that’s the most important thing. They’ve had some awesome racing there over the years. We are all hoping they have their ducks in a row and have the racetrack ready for us. All we want is to put on the show that everyone expects. I’m looking forward to it. We’re getting up toward my neck of the woods, and I have a lot of fans there. There are a lot of people who have supported us for a long time in that area. I can’t wait to get there. It’s always fun.”
On Thursday, racing is scheduled to begin at 8pm at Huset’s Speedway. For more details and ticket information, call the track at (605) 582-3536 or visit www.husets-speedway.com.

On Friday night, Donny Schatz will add a new track to his registry at Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Nebraska. Steve Kinser is also set to race in his second appearance at Junction Motor Speedway. The weekend of action continues on Saturday night with an event at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas. Kinser has won 27 World of Outlaw races in the state of Nebraska and has been consistently strong at Lakeside during his career. Similarly, Schatz is no stranger to victory in Nebraska or Kansas, having won WoO A-Features in both states.
Steve Kinser commented on his upcoming race in Kansas: “I’m looking forward to going back to Lakeside. We’ve run a lot of races in that part of the country over the years. We’ve been pretty decent there at Lakeside and, hopefully, that will continue this weekend.”
Schatz also referenced his upcoming races in a recent interview: “Going someplace new is where you have to rely on teamwork. No one has a stack of notes about the place, so you kind of just guess where to start. From there, it’s about working together to figure out what is going to work best. I’ve heard a lot of good things about McCool Junction, and it’ll be nice to get back to Lakeside. It’s been awhile since we’ve been there, and I know the last time we were there, I ran third. I’d like to get a couple spots higher on the podium this time.”
Friday at Junction Motor Speedway, grandstands will open at 4pm with hot laps scheduled for 6pm. For more details, please visit www.junctionmotorspeedway.com

On Wednesday night, the Outlaws will stop in central Missouri for round three of the Showdown for the Bud Crown at State Fair Speedway in Sedalia. Then in a weekend double header, they will compete again at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Both Steve Kinser and Donny Schatz are eager to return to these tracks, each having prior success at the venues. Kinser has recorded five wins at State Fair Speedway, while Schatz is a three-time winner at River Cities Speedway.
When asked about racing at State Fair Speedway, Steve Kinser said, “We’ve raced at Sedalia a number of times. We know it’s a big, fast half-mile. Sometimes it gets hard on tires. Sometimes you have to hug the bottom and other times you have to rip the top. Experience plays a big role in keeping up with the changes throughout the night.”
Donny Schatz commented on his experience racing at Grand Folks, “We’ve been pretty decent at Grand Folks the past couple of years. The breaks have kind of worked in our favor. It’s always special winning races, and we’d like nothing more than to win another one there in front of our fans. Results are what matter and maybe a couple of good nights in North Dakota will get us headed in the direction.”
The hot laps on Wednesday at State Fair Speedway are scheduled to begin at 7pm. For more details, contact State Fair Speedway at www.missouristatefairspeedway.com

The Outlaws, led by the Tony Stewart Racing combo Steve Kinser and Donny Schatz, return to Knoxville for three nights of racing beginning Thursday with the Mediacom Shootout, continuing Friday with the Hall of Fame Classic, and then concluding Saturday with the Mediacom Shootout finale.
Kinser, driver of the Bass Pro Shops/ JD Byrider Maxim, will be looking to win his first race at Knoxville since April 2005, while Schatz hopes to win the Outlaws’ opening feature at Knoxville for the fourth straight season. Knoxville has been a personal stomping ground for Steve Kinser throughout his career, winning 52 times in WoO competition and ranking third all-time at the track with 58 total wins. The staggering numbers Kinser has posted at Knoxville won’t be matched anytime soon, but the one driver who has put up “Kinseresque” results at the track recently has been Schatz.
In a recent interview with True Speed Communications, Donny Schatz said, “Knoxville fits our program. It’s a big track where speed is important. The track also usually slicks off in the middle and has multiple grooves to race on. You need to be able to have a car that works in several places- high, low, and through the middle. We’ve been fortunate to win some races there in the past and now our goal is to win the next one. We’re looking forward to trying to continue to winning races at Knoxville.”
On all three days at Knoxville Raceway, the pit gates will open at 4 p.m. with the grandstands opening at 6 p.m. Hot laps are scheduled to being at 6:45p.m. For more details, visit the official website of Knoxville Raceway at www.KnoxvilleRaceway.com

Fiction: JD Byrider is one of those companies that lure unsophisticated consumers into a thicket of debt.
Fact:We don’t put customers in cars they can’t afford. Long before we get to the closing, our proprietary risk assessment program and budget analysis enables us to determine if the customer can afford the deal, and whether he or she is capable of meeting its terms.
And we recognize that our typical customer is less savvy than we are about the buying and financing process. That’s why our closing process is so detailed and structured, and why every customer must watch a video that explains everything in easy-to-understand terms. And to make sure we don’t overlook anything, we even videotape the closing, always with the customer’s consent. Watch our Pre-Closing Video Read More at jdbfacts.com

The Circle K NOS Energy Outlaw Showdown is planned to take place at The Dirt Tack in Charlotte, NC Motor Speedway in front of a sellout crowd of more than 15,000 spectators on Friday evening. It has become a high-profile event with both Donny Schatz and Steve Kinser scheduled to race Friday night. Schatz is seeking his second victory of the 2010 campaign and fourth overall in his career at the Charlotte track while Kinser, pilot of the No. 11 Bass Pro Shops/ JD Byrider Maxim, is chasing his third victory of the season and looks to move closer to the top of the WoO championship standings. The TSR drivers, who have combined to win the last nine consecutive WoO titles, are looking to continue their outstanding racing results at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
On Sunday, the Outlaws will make their debut at Tri-City Speedway, a high-banked, half-mile dirt oval located in western Pennsylvania. Kinser, who was once victorious at Tri-City Speedway, is looking forward to the possibility of another win. Schatz will be making his first laps around the facility and hopes to make it the 51st track where he’s won a WoO A-Feature.
“We’ve got off to a good start this year. This deal with Tony Stewart Racing has really worked out well for all of us. Everybody is thinking about racing this time of year and, on Friday, we’ve got a chance to race in front of a lot of sponsors.”, Kinser said. “I guess we’re really hoping to come down to Charlotte and win the race. We’ve won a couple this year, but I also feel like we’ve let a couple get away. A win on Friday would really be a big boost to all of us on this Bass Pro Shops team.”
