Deer Creek Outlaws Tickets On Sale
Advance Tickets For World of Outlaws Late Model Series ‘Heartland
Nationals’ At Deer Creek Speedway On Sale Now
SPRING VALLEY, MN – July 7, 2006 – Advance tickets are currently on sale
for the World of Outlaws Late Model Series ‘Heartland Nationals,’
scheduled for Fri., July 28, and Sat., July 29, at Deer Creek Speedway.
The three-eighths-mile clay oval in southeast Minnesota hosted the traveling
WoO LMS stars on June 1 for the highly-successful running of the 27th
Featherlite Trailers Gopher 50, and both Deer Creek and DIRT MotorSports
officials expect fans to flock back to the track for two blockbuster evenings
of competition on July 28 and 29.
Both nights will feature complete WoO LMS programs, including time trials,
heat races, B-Mains, a pole dash and a 50-lap A-Main paying $10,000 to win.
Joining the WoO LMS each evening will be the WISSOTA Super Stock division.
Action is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m. on Friday and 6 p.m. on Saturday.
With huge crowds expected for the Heartland Nationals, pre-sale reserved
tickets are in demand. Advance two-day tickets are priced at $45 and may be
purchased on-line by visiting the Deer Creek Speedway website at www.deercreekspeedway.com.
The deadline for pre-sale reserved ticket purchases is Wed., July 26, at 5
p.m. CDT. After the deadline, single-day general admission ticket prices will
be $30 at the track ticket office.
All of the WoO LMS regulars will be on hand for the Heartland Nationals,
continuing the battle for the championship that currently sees Billy Moyer of
Batesville, Ark., Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y., Steve Francis of Ashland,
Ky., Rick Eckert of York, Pa., and Shane Clanton of Locust Grove, Ga.,
separated by a slim points margin.
A strong contingent of regional dirt Late Model racers is expected to
challenge the WoO LMS standouts. Many will be enticed by an opportunity to
share in a $1,000 non-touring/local driver bonus offered by DIRT MotorSports.
The $1,000 non-touring/local driver bonus will be divided up at Deer Creek by
10 competitors who are not currently ranked in the top 20 of a national
touring series and have never won a WoO LMS event in the past.
The Sat., July 29, event at Deer Creek Speedway will be captured by the
cameras of SPEED for broadcast Sun., Sept. 24, at 6 p.m. EDT. The SPEED
coverage, hosted by lead commentator Rick Benjamin along with color man Shane
Andrews and pit reporter Mark Kenyon, is part of 15 World of Outlaws Late
Model Series events slated for broadcast on Sunday nights in 2006.
Deer Creek’s Featherlite Trailers Gopher 50 on June, which was won by
red-hot WoO LMS stalwart Rick Eckert, was also taped for broadcast on SPEED.
The race will be aired on SPEED on Sun., July 30, at 6 p.m. EDT.
