World of Outlaws Late Model Series Hits Cayuga Co. Fair Speedway
Weedsport, NY - June 13, 2022 - By Tom Skibinski, DIRTcar Racing NorthEast PR Director

Last year's inaugural World of Outlaws Late Model Series event at Cayuga County Fair Speedway was spectacular. What will the return engagement be like on Sunday June 24?

 

A standing-room-only crowd turned out in 2006 when the nation's premier dirt Late Model tour invaded the Weedsport, N.Y., oval for the first time, and they weren't disappointed with what they saw. Bear Lake, Pa.'s Chub Frank - a hard-nosed veteran star known as 'Chubzilla' - made a stirring drive through the pack, passing cars at will en route to a $10,000 victory in the 50-lap showdown.

 

Chub will lead the Outlaws back to Cayuga County on Sun., June 24, for a show that fans will certainly not want to miss. That evening will mark the only time this season that the World of Outlaws Late Model Series will bring its unique brand of full-fender, on-the-gas, high-torque, chassis-twisting dirt-track action to central New York.

 

Some of the biggest, most talented names in national dirt Late Model racing will make Cayuga County one of their stops on this season's huge 50-date, 23-state World of Outlaws tour. Drivers expected include points leader Clint ('Cat Daddy') Smith of Senoia Ga.; Rick ('Scrub') Eckert of York, Pa.; Steve ('Kentucky Colonel') Francis of Ashland, Ky.; Shane ('Coconut') Clanton of Locust Grove, Ga.; Chris ('Smokey') Madden of Gray Court, S.C.; Josh ('Kid Rocket') Richards of Shinnston, W.Va.; Darrell Lanigan of Union, Ky.; Eddie Carrier Jr. of Salt Rock, W.Va.; and Brian Birkhofer of Muscatine, Iowa.

 

Cayuga County's regular DIRTcar Big-Block Modified fans will have several familiar faces to follow in the event. Reigning World of Outlaws Late Model Series champion Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y., is making plans to drive his Sweeteners Plus Late Model at Cayuga County, as is 2022 WoO LMS Rookie of the Year contenders Tim Fuller of Watertown, N.Y., ---who copped his first WoO LMS main on Tuesday--- Billy Decker of Unadilla, N.Y., and Leicester, N.Y.'s Vic Coffey.

 

Sun., June 24 - it's the only chance central New York fans will have to see the World of Outlaws Late Model Series battle in their backyard this season. Joining the 7 p.m. card will be the BRP CanAm Series Late Models and Cayuga County's own UMP/DIRTcar Street Stocks.
