Saldana Sizzles at Volusia Speedway Park |
Camargo, IL (2-4-10) – By Kelly Brown –Public Relations Director –Tonight Saldana won his first race of the season in a convincing fashion after running second on the previous night at Volusia.
Starting on the front row of tonight’s feature event was Craig Dollansky and Greg Hodnett. When the green banner waved over the A-main, Hodnett quickly took the lead. Drag racing down the back stretch on the first lap Saldana was able to move up to second, after beginning his night in the fifth position, while Dollansky settled into third. It only took until the second revolution of the track for Saldana to take the lead in Turn 4. Hodnett would fight back in the low line, while Saldana stayed high. For about three laps the two traded the lead in about every corner, but Saldana was able to establish himself in the lead.
While the top two were battling, Dollansky was being pursued by Donny Schatz as the two fought for third. Dollansky would get the edge, and Schatz would fall into the clutches of Steve Kinser. Kinser would get around Schatz for fourth momentarily. The two then ran wheel-to-wheel for a lap, but Schatz got the edge retaking the fourth position. Just as Saldana and Hodnett were running side-by-side in traffic, the first caution flag of the night came out on Lap 8. It was for Doug Esh who has slowed in Turn 1 with a flat tire.
On the restart, the track did not stay green for long. One lap was recorded before Hodnett who was running second at the time slowed with a flat left rear tire. When racing resumed, it would be Saldana, Dollansky, Kinser, Lasoski and Schatz lining up in the top-five. The Green Flag would fly again, but almost instantly the track went yellow as Schatz slowed with a flat right rear and a missing right front tire.
When the Green Flag flew, Saldana would favor the high side and stretch out his lead using his chosen high line. At the halfway point of tonight’s race the leader began to encounter traffic again. Dollansky began to close on the number 9 Budweiser car, but on Lap 17 the Yellow Flag would fly again as Esh came to a stop on the course. At this point there had been so many laps run under caution, the officials of the O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions decided to unveil the Red Flag for a fuel stop.
On the restart both Lucas Wolfe and Sam Hafertepe Jr. were on the move as both got past Lasoski to pick up the fourth and fifth positions on the track. At the front Saldana was stretching his lead out again, but it was erased with another Yellow Flag with eight laps to go. Lance Dewease slowed on the track with a flat tire and was unable to make it to the pit area.
The next time the Green Flag was unveiled, Kinser would reel in Dollansky for second, but their battle had to be put on hold when the final caution of the night came out on Lap 26 when Jac Haudenschild had a flat tire. When the field restarted Saldana held on tight to the lead leaving Dollansky and Kinser to continue their skirmish. As Kinser ran low and Dollansky ran high, Wolfe caught the two and joined the battle.
With the Checkered Flag in the air, Saldana picked up his first win of the 2010 season and his seventh win overall at Volusia. Behind him it would be Dollansky holding on to second, while Kinser would cross the line in third, with Wolf and Hafertepe rounding out the top-five.
One of the hardest chargers of tonight was Tim Kaeding who started the race on the tail of the field after having a fuel leak prior to the Green Flag. He was able to climb all the way to ninth before the end of the race. Carrying the banner for the All Stars was Dale Blaney who turned in another remarkable race. After starting twenty-second he was able to pick up twelve spots to finish tenth.
Next up for the All Star Circuit of Champions is East Bay Raceway Park. On Thursday, February 11th the tickets will run $20, with pit passes running $30. Then on Friday night admission will be $25 and pit passes will be $32. On the final night of race action tickets can be purchased for $30 and the pit passes will be $35.

Dollansky Victorious at Volusia |
|
Camargo, IL (2-3-10) – By Kelly Brown –Public Relations Director – Entering tonight’s event there were a lot of unknowns for Craig Dollansky. He was beginning the 2010 season with a new team, car, and even the Goodyear Tires on his car were new to him. Some drivers may be daunted by a scenario like this, but Dollansky adapted very quickly as he picked up the victory in O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions action at Volusia Speedway Park.
After setting quick time, Dollansky would begin the night on the pole position with Jason Sides to his right. On the drop of the Green Flag Dollansky would take the lead on Lap 1 coming out of the second turn. Behind him Joey Saldana was on the move as he picked up four positions, moving from his eighth place starting position to fourth in just one circuit of the track. When the dust settled after the first lap the top-five were Dollansky, Sides, Lucas Wolfe, Saldana and Donny Schatz.
Tonight the track was lightening quick, which made it difficult to pass . On Lap 5, Dollansky would first encounter traffic for the first time which gave Sides an opportunity to close in. The following lap Dollansky was having trouble getting around lapped traffic, which allowed Wolfe to catch the top-two and battle for the top spot. It also allowed Saldana to sneak up on the top-three and steal third from Wolfe.
At this point Saldana was all over Sides for the second position, while Dollansky stretched out his lead. At the half way point the top five were Dollansky, Sides, Saldana, Schatz, and Wolfe. Just one lap later the first caution flag of the race would fly for Doug Esh, who came to a stop in Turn 3.
On the restart, Steve Kinser was on the move as he moved his way into the top-five and began pursing his teammate. One of the best battles on the track was between Saldana and Schatz as they sized each other up. When the leaders started to encounter traffic again, Sides was closing in on Dollansky. On Lap 24, Sides caught Dollansky and got on the outside in Turn 1. The duo would run nose-to-tail down the back stretch. On the 26 circuit of the course Sides would beat Dollansky to the line and take the lead.
Two laps later disaster would strike for Sides as first sparks were reported over the radio, then his racecar slowed and came to a stop high in Turn 3 with rear end damage. On the drop of the green Dollansky set sail, while Saldana and Schatz battled, but just before Dollansky could take the checkered flag the Red Flag flew for Tim Kaeding who had flipped exiting Turn 2. This set up a second Green, White, Checkered situation. On this restart, Dollansky powered into the first turn leaving Saldana and Schatz to decide second. When the Checkered Flag flew it would be Dollansky picking up the win with Saldana, Schatz, Kinser, and Stevie Smith just eking his way into the top-five at the end.
Tonight Dollansky collected his sixth career All Star win and his first in All Star Winter Nationals action since 2001 when he won at Volusia. Overall it was the third time in his career that he celebrated a 410 sprint car win in Victory Lane at Volusia.
Next up is a second night of thrilling racing action at Volusia Speedway Park. Thursday, February 4th General Admission for the event is $29 with a Pit Pass running $40. Reserved seats can be purchased on race day for $2 more per seat.

Winter Nationals Focus Moves to Volusia Speedway Park |
Camargo, IL (2-1-10) by Kelly Brown – Public Relations Director – With only one night of racing, after the second night fell victim to rain last weekend, it is time for the drivers and teams of the All Star Circuit of Champions to pack up and head to the site that has hosted the most All Star Winter National Races: Volusia Speedway Park.
Not only has Volusia hosted the most races, but it also hosted the first Winter National race in 1983. In that event Kenny Jacobs would win his first of three All Star races there. On both the 3/8 mile and half-mile dirt and pavement ovals, that Volusia has transitioned to over the years.
On Wednesday February 3rd, there will be $5,000 on the line as the drivers hit the track, but if rain can stay away both days Thursday February 4th could be historic. Not only will $7,000 be on the line, but a lucky driver will get to be etched in the history books as the winner of the 200th All Star Circuit of Champions Winter Nationals Race.
Last year Donny Schatz was a man on a mission. On the first night it was a challenge for the North Dakota native as he spun to miss an incident early in the race and restarted the race at the tail end. It took until the half way point of the race for Schatz to work his way into the top ten and he stole the lead away from Stevie Smith with just a few laps to go for the win. The second night of racing action would see Schatz lead wire-to-wire to claim the second night of racing action. On the third night Smith would get revenge by claiming the victory. It was a thrilling event that saw Smith slide around Craig Dollansky in Turn 2 on the last lap.

Danny Lasoski Collects Winter Nationals Win at Ocala Speedway |
Camargo, IL (1-29-10) – By Kelly Brown –Public Relations Director- It was the opening event for the O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions Winter Nationals, so there was a bit of chill in the air but not enough to cool down the young guns and veteran drivers. On a night that looked as if the youth would out run experience, there was a cruel twist which sent a seasoned veteran to Victory Lane. The benefactor was Danny Lasoski who did not lead the most laps in the event, but he led the most important one that solidified his twenty-first O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions victory in Winter Nationals History.
On the front row of tonight’s feature event were young guns Brad Sweet and Cale Conley. When the Green Flag initially few it was not for long as Donny Schatz and Sam Hafertepe Jr. would make contact which would end the evening for the 15h and the15 would lose its front wing, but continue on at the back of the pack.
When the Green Flag waved in the crisp night air Conley would grab the lead and set sail with Sweet in his tire tracks. The two would run nose-to-tail until the first Yellow Flag flew over the event on Lap 8. It was for David Gravel who looped his 89g around and ended up in the infield.
After the short caution period, Conley and Sweet picked up where they left off. The duo was close and Sweet was working on Conley, he came close to executing the pass, but there would be another caution period to cool the action on the track. Gravel got low between Turn 1 and Turn 2, and then spun at the base of the track. Once the Green Banner flew, Conley and Sweet resumed their heated battle as seasoned veterans worked their way through traffic and began to catch the dueling duo.
With one lap to go the third through fifth consisted of Dale Blaney, Tim Shaffer, and Lasoski, all veterans in their own right with the two youngsters of Sweet and Conley in front of them. It looked as if the exuberance of youth would win out, but this is when everything took a turn. Going into turn three on the final lap Sweet made his move going high to get around Conley for the victory. Both tried to battle in the high groove and touched which sent both of their 410 racing machines tumbling and brought out the Red Flag.
The incident set up a Green-White-Checker finish for the veterans of the series to decide amongst them who would win. Lasoski inherited the lead and when the Green Flag flew, he defended his position. Once in the lead Lasoski did not look back to collect his first win at Ocala Speedway. Rounding out the top-five would be Shaffer, Blaney, Freddie Rahmer and Tim Kaeding.
The hard charger of the night was Doug Esh who picked up eleven spots on a track that was very hard to pass on. Also after starting at the tail of the field after losing his nose wing, Donny Schatz was able to battle back to finish in the top-ten.

All Star Circuit of Champions Celebrate 2009 Season |
Camargo, IL (1-25-10) by Kelly Brown – Public Relations Director – “Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months, and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character.” – T. Alan Armstrong.
This past weekend at the All Occasions Banquet Center in Waldo, Ohio, the stars were out in the middle of the day as the drivers, owners, sponsors, promoters, and special guests of the O’Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions gathered to remember another thrilling season of racing action.
2009 All Star Champion Tim Shaffer was awarded a check for $50,000 for his accomplishments this season. He also took home a prize from All Pro Heads, which he won in a drawing during the banquet. In 2009, Shaffer collected eight wins at: Ocala Speedway, Lernerville Speedway, Elkins Speedway, Millstream Speedway, Fremont Speedway, Hartford Speedway, and Hilltop Speedway. Shaffer was also second in the point standings during the 2009 edition of Ohio Speedweek and won the finale of the grueling week at Fremont. Overall Shaffer accumulated 19 top-five finishes, which put him in the top-five in 50 percent of the races he ran with the All Stars. He also collected 29 top-ten finishes which placed him in the top-ten in approximately 80 percent of the All Star races he ran this year.
“The whole season was really fun for me,” stated Shaffer with a smile. “It had been a long time since I have had this much fun racing. My owners were wonderful and gave me great equipment which made me and the Call Holbrook team look fantastic. I cannot wait to get going again. These cars are really fun to drive with Brian (Kemenah) setting them up. This year communication was the key to our success and that is what makes this a great team to drive for.”
Also honored during the day was 2009 Rookie-of-the-Year Daron Clayton who won one of the closest rookie battles the All Star Circuit of Champions has seen, and also took home third in the point standings. Clayton clinched the title with an eighth place finish in the final race of the season at Terre Haute. Clayton may have had a slow start to 2009, but finished strong with two top-five finishes in the last five races of the season. His best finish of fourth came at Hilltop Speedway in September. In all Clayton would close the 2009 season with eight top-ten finishes.
“The first half of the year was tough, but once I got my head out of my butt, we looked at the points and said we have a chance to run in the top-three in points and win Rookie-of-the-Year,” said Clayton with a grin. “It was fun and the highlight of my career. I did go through a year in the school of hard knocks, but it all paid off for us in the end.”
Also honored was Clayton’s crew chief Anthony Knighten, who took home Mechanic-of-the-Year honors.
“I don’t know how we did it,” commented Knighten. “I have to thank Daron and send an extra special thank you to my wife Deanna who has been really understanding this year with the hours it took to make this team successful. I have come a long way since I started driving street stocks in New Jersey. Over the years I have to say I learned the most about racing watching Billy Paunch race in Pennsylvania.”
Looking forward to 2010, it promises to be another thrilling season for the All Star Circuit of Champions.
“Next weekend when we begin our season at Ocala Speedway, it will be a new day,” expressed Guy Webb, All Star Series President. This year the schedule will be bigger and better than last year with around 50 stand alone dates. In all this is going to be a great year for the All Stars.”
With the 2010 season under a week away, another exciting season is in the works. It will open next weekend with the 27th edition of Winter Nationals which will feature three unique Floridian tracks: Ocala Speedway, Volusia Raceway Park, and East Bay Raceway Park.
