COASTAL 181 TO RELEASE LONG-AWAITED AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF BILL WIMBLE, JULY 22, 2009 

Newburyport, MA, July 10, 2009 – Motorsports publisher Coastal 181 announced today the upcoming release of I’LL NEVER BE LAST AGAIN, the autobiography of Bill Wimble.  The long-awaited memoir of the legendary racer from Lisbon, New York, was written in concert with award-winning journalist, Lew Boyd.  

Bill Wimble enjoyed a meteoric career during the prime era of sportsman-modified racing on the East Coast.  He was NASCAR National Sportsman Champion in 1960 and 1961 and won seven state and fourteen track titles throughout the ’60s.  The lion’s share of Wimble’s wins came aboard the state-of-the-art, signature red, black and white # 33s fielded by McCredy Motors in Sherburne, NY.  The Wimble/#33 combo grew into one of the most popular and lasting brands in the history of short-track racing. 

One of the reasons for Wimble’s unusual popularity was his personal style.  At a time when most drivers strutted about with swashbuckling braggadocio, Wimble – though firm and focused – was accessible, respectful, and articulate.  Many fans made the assumption that behind that driving suit was something different – and special. 

They were right.  In I’LL NEVER BE LAST AGAIN, Wimble details his valiant struggle as a teenager to save his family’s dairy farm along the St. Lawrence River. Later, following his near-fatal crash at Lebanon Valley Speedway in 1968, he literally started over again, re-crafting his career and honing his entrepreneurial skills.  Along the way, he developed an enduring set of life principles that carry poignant messages for all of us. His is truly an American success story. 

I’LL NEVER BE LAST AGAIN is 234 pages, hard-cover, with black and white photography. A formal book launch and autograph session with Bill Wimble will take place at the Utica-Rome Speedway in Vernon, NY, on Wednesday, July 22 at the 100-lap ROC modified event. After the launch, the book will be available for $26.95 plus $6 S&H at www.coastal181.com or by calling 1-877-907-8181 toll free during business hours. 

Located in Newburyport, MA, Coastal 181 is a leading publisher of oval track racing books, covering superspeedways, open-wheel racing, and short-track stock cars.  I’LL NEVER BE LAST AGAIN is the 16^th Coastal 181 title, following upon such popular titles as Richie!, Win It or Wear It, Gotta Race!, and Paved Track Dirt Track, among others.

qualifying format for the IMCA Modifieds.

Clash promoter Bob Harris. "We are going to run six qualifying
events. These qualifying events will be like an 'A' feature.
They are going to be fifteen laps. They are going to be twenty

JRI Team Cars Participate in Very Successful Test at The Mag!

Columbus, MS (3/01/09) – The JRI Development Group, RPI Suspension, and Precision Suspension culminated to host a test session with several of their clients on Thursday, February 26th at Magnolia Motor Speedway in Columbus, Mississippi, and the results of the testing proved to be quite beneficial for all parties involved.

Five drivers competed in the testing at the 3/8 mile, gumbo oval, including Super Late Model racers Dane Dacus, James Ward, Dingus Griffin, and Chris Ragan as well as Crate Late Model racer Chase Washington. The intent of the test was to see how the cars would react to different suspension, shock, and setup packages under race conditions. Johnny Stokes prepared the immaculate oval to simulate race conditions, which at Magnolia Motor Speedway means an extremely slick surface. The test session started during the daytime and ran late into the night, allowing for as close to race conditions as possible for the teams. The total session lasted over 12 hours.

For the drivers, it was a great opportunity as they got the chance to do a great deal of testing and development, which came at no cost to them.

Dane Dacus comments, “The test really came at a great time for us. We are getting ready for a big season, and we had a lot of things that we wanted to test before we tried it on an actual race night. We really learned a lot and look forward to moving forward and applying what we learned.”

Lettsworth, Louisiana’s, James Ward, echoed many of Dacus’ sentiments noting that “Robby Bilbrey (RPI Suspensions) and the entire JRI Development Group provide unbelievable support to the drivers, who run their products. I had never taken part in a testing session before, much less one, where someone provided the time and place to make it happen. I learned a lot at the test, and I was able to implement it immediately at this past weekend’s event at Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track (Fort Worth, TX), which resulted in a third place finish.”

Dingus Griffin comments, “The test session really exceeded what I expected. We (the drivers) asked for certain test conditions and parameters, and everyone at RPI Suspension and JRI delivered exactly what we were looking for. I’m real excited about the 2009 season and the support that JRI Development is showing us!”

Chris Ragan, who is no stranger to the “Black Ice” at Magnolia Motor Speedway was able to learn a great deal from the testing as well. “There’s been a lot of things that I wanted to try on the car, but it never seemed like the right time to try something outside of the box. I got to try a lot of these things and found some new setups that are really good to help us for 2009. We can’t thank Robby and entire group enough for their support.”

Chase Washington, who was the only Crate Late Model driver on hand, was able to get a lot out of the test as well. He comments, “In the Crate Late Model division, setup is even more crucial than in other classes, because we all have the same horsepower. As a result, setup is what makes the cutting edge difference in being first and in being last. We learned a lot about our setup and shock packages at Magnolia that we can use everywhere that we race in 2009.”

Not only did the drivers and teams learn a great deal from the test, but everyone with RPI Suspension and JRI Development Group were able to gain considerable knowledge as well. Robby Bilbrey with RPI Suspension states, "The factory support from JRI racing shocks was very instrumental in the success of this test. Without their support this test would not have been near as successful, and because of it we were all able to walk away with a lot of valuable knowledge."

Sammy Speaks with the JRI Development Group Director of Short Track Technical Services concludes, "That in his 20 plus years of racing experience this was the most productive dirt test in which he had ever been involved."

JRI Development Group, RPI Suspension and Precision Suspension would like to thank all the drivers for helping to make this test a success.

For more information on RPI Suspension please call Robby Bilbrey at 256-505-2361.

Thanks!

World Racing Group Announces VP Racing Fuels
Official Racing Fuel of World of Outlaws and DIRTcar Racing

 

CONCORD, N.C. — Jan. 30, 2009 — World Racing Group announced today that VP Racing Fuels has signed a multiyear agreement to be the Official Racing Fuel of the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series, the World of Outlaws Late Model Series and the Advance Auto Parts Super DIRTcar Series, all 12 divisions of DIRTcar Racing and UMP DIRTcar Racing along with a number of regional touring series that fall under the DIRTcar banner.

In the DIRTcar Racing Northeast Region, the only fuels allowed in the Big Block Modified and 358-Modified divisions at sanctioned events will be VP110 and C12. Fuels available to other divisions and regional series, in addition to VP110 and C12, include VP113, Late Model Plus, Motorsport 109, M1 and M5 Methanol, as well as any of VP’s other specialty blends.

“Whether it’s the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series, the UMP DIRTcar Summer Nationals or the DIRTcar Big Blocks, competitors all will now have the opportunity to experience the increased power and torque for which VP’s fuels are famous,” said Steve Scheidker, VP’s Director of Marketing. “People might not realize, but the World Racing Group sanctions nearly 5,000 events at nearly 150 tracks across North America, reaching competitors in all market sizes. This represents a variety of racing applications, each with unique fuel requirements.  With VP’s wide variety of specialty fuels and 1300 dealers across the continent, partnering with the World Racing Group from top to bottom is a natural fit for us.”

The multifaceted deal begins with the season-opening Alltel DIRTcar Nationals by UNOH from Feb. 3-14 at Volusia Speedway Park, where VP will be the sole fuel supplier at the high speed, half-mile oval near Daytona Beach, FL, during the 12-night event to launch the 2009 season. It will be the first of several major events where VP Racing Fuels will be the exclusive trackside supplier.  Under the agreement, Volusia is one of six World Racing Group-operated tracks for which VP will be the official fuel supplier.

“We have been watching VP’s efforts for a number of years and pride ourselves on partnering with industry leaders who provide superior products with customer service and technical support to match.  We know we have found that with VP Racing Fuels,” said World Racing Group President Tom Deery. “In turn, they recognized the power of our DIRTcar Racing properties in conjunction with the World of Outlaws and we look forward to many years of VP providing consistent top quality racing fuels to our competitors.”

“We’ve been part of the dirt track racing scene for a long time, but working with the World Racing Group across all of its series and sanctioning bodies has long been a goal of ours,” said VP’s Eastern Regional Manager Jim Kelly. “VP has fueled modified winners at Syracuse and the rest of the DIRTcar member tracks many times in the past. Racers may not have been able to run our C12 in recent years, but now they’re all going to realize the extra power, torque and cooler operating temps that C12 offers. We look forward to getting back to those tracks and fueling the Big Block and 358 Modifieds as they compete for Advance Auto Parts Super DIRTcar Series victories and Mr. DIRTcar championships across the Northeast.”

VP Racing Fuels will roll out a program to quickly become a part of the fabric of DIRTcar Racing with aggressive promotional programs for DIRTcar sanctioned tracks, while giving the competitors a variety of incentive programs across all World Racing Group series, divisions and sanctioning bodies.

Racing Community Mourns Passing of Lou Blaney 

CONCORD, N.C. — Jan. 26, 2009 — The World Racing Group, Lernerville Speedway and DIRTcar Racing join countless others who are saddened to learn of Lou Blaney’s passing on Sunday, Jan. 25. 

Blaney was an incredible competitor on the track, piling up more than 600 victories and more championships than he could count in Sprint Cars and Modifieds during a legendary career that ultimately earned him a Hall of Fame induction in 2000. 

Off the track, Blaney was a gentleman. He was calm, quiet and extremely knowledgeable. He was highly respected not only as a racer, but as a person. Few men have represented the racing community with such grace and elegance as Lou Blaney, who called Hartford, Ohio, his home. 

His feats at Lernerville Speedway are matched only by the elite drivers in the track’s 41-year history. He is second to only Bob Wearing Sr. in career feature wins (118) and track championships (seven). In one incredible stretch from 1972 to 1975, Blaney captured 49 wins and four consecutive track titles in Sprint Cars. He then moved into a Modified and reeled off championships in 1980, 1991 and 1996, along with a division-leading 69 feature wins. He also drove a Modified to a career-best second-place finish in 1981 at the New York State Fairgrounds during Super DIRT Week events. 

“I grew up watching the red No. 10 and have to admit that my favorite nights at Lernerville were when my Dad (Lynn Geisler) won the Late Model race, Ed Lynch Jr. the Sprints and Lou Blaney the Modifieds,” said Pennsylvania native and WRG Chief Marketing Officer Ben Geisler. “It never mattered where he started, because you knew he would always be in the mix at the end.  He set the bar high, will live long in our minds, and will be known for generations to come in the history books.” 

Blaney was athletic and passed his competitiveness on to his sons, Dave and Dale, each of whom has achieved success behind the wheel of a race car. In recent years, the Blaney family, including Lou’s wife Kate, has owned and operated the legendary Sharon Speedway, site of several World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series and World of Outlaws Late Model Series events. 

“Lou was a true racer’s racer,” said Lernerville GM Gary Risch Jr. “He was a gentleman on and off the track. Lou has done so much for racing in our area, from being one of the best drivers in the country to working on rebuilding Sharon Speedway. He will be missed.” 

“It’s honestly difficult to find the words to express what Lou Blaney meant to Lernerville Speedway and the local racing community in general,” said Lernerville PR Director Eric Westendorf. “It sounds cliché, but he truly transcended the sport. He was a rival, a mentor, a hero for multiple generations of drivers and fans. He made everyone around him want to be better — a better driver, a better promoter, a better person. He will be sorely missed for a very long time.” 

While many in the coming days will recount the stories of Blaney’s incredible and numerous epic performances on the track, some will recite the win totals and countless championships in a racing career that started in 1958. For others, Blaney is a measuring stick. To achieve, or surpass, a mark he established is truly a career accomplishment. 

But ultimately numbers don’t define this man. He had as much fun watching Dave and Dale race as he did himself. 

“Working in Pittsburgh, I had the opportunity to cover Lou Blaney toward the end of his racing career,” said Chris Dolack, the World Racing Group VP of Public Relations. “He still dominated every week, but he carried himself so differently than many others. He was quiet, but even when he was busy, he had time to talk. I never saw him without a smile no matter what was going on around him. It’s the smile and quiet conversations in the pits that I will always remember.” 

Visitation is from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 27, at the Hartford United Methodist Presbyterian Church on State Route 305 in Hartford, Ohio. A funeral will be Wednesday at 11 a.m. 

Cards can be sent to the Blaney family at P.O. Box 159, Hartford, OH 44424.

GIR to Host USAC .25 Midget Championship Finale

Event to Run in Conjunction with USAC Gold Crown Nationals at Tri-City Speedway

TULSA, Okla. – The United States Auto Club (USAC) and Gateway International Raceway announced today, in a joint statement at the 23^rd Annual USAC Chili Bowl Nationals, that the Madison, Ill.-based multi-purpose racing facility will host the season-ending event of USAC’s new .25 (Point Two-Five) Midget Series “Generation Next Tour” Oct. 9-11. This year marks the inaugural season for the tour which will travel throughout the Midwest.

Gateway’s .25 Midget Series event will be held in conjunction with the Gold Crown Nationals, a USAC-sanctioned Mopar Midget National Championship race held at Tri-City Speedway, located near GIR in Pontoon Beach, Ill.

USAC is the first major sanctioning body to officially recognize the role quarter midget racing has in creating racers of the future. NASCAR champions including Jeff Gordon, Bobby Labonte, and Terry Labonte, as well as 2008 Daytona 500 champion Ryan Newman, got their start racing quarter midgets as kids. USAC hopes to use its new series to give the drivers of tomorrow a step in the right direction.

“Our new .25 Midget series represents the future drivers, fans and owners with USAC,” James Spink, USAC’s developmental series director, said. “We have seen many of our current stars graduate out of the .25 midget ranks and achieve great success with us, including Jerry Coons, Jr., Tracy Hines and Bobby East.”

Gateway has a history with USAC, hosting Silver Crown races in 1998 (won by former USAC Triple Crown winner J.J. Yeley) and 1999 (won by Newman, with the runner-up spot taken by the late Kenny Irwin). GIR Vice President and General Manager Lenny Batycki said he is pleased to see USAC return to Gateway.

“It’s an honor to have  USAC to return to Gateway International Raceway,” Batycki said. “When you look at the champions this organization has produced, it’s not a stretch to think that the driver who wins this event could be the next Jeff Gordon or Carl Edwards.

“St. Louis-area race fans have seen a lot of the future stars of motorsports race at Gateway and I have every reason to believe they will be seeing more when the USAC .25 Midget Series comes to town in October.”

Modified Tour Appoints Bauer New Race Director
 
By Lou Long, PR Director
 
In preparation for the 2009 racing season, the Board of Directors of
Modified Tour, Inc. recently met to discuss rules changes and new
assignments. The organization presents the BRP/Hoosier Tire Tour for
Big Block Modifieds in Western Pennsylvania, Ohio and West Virginia.
 
"We lost a valued friend and supporter over the off-season when Ed
Sanner retired," said Modified Tour President Ray Baselj. Sanner was a
past president and served as Race Director for the series. "However,
we were fortunate to have Bill Bauer step up to fill the void."
 
After a long and successful stint with Pennsylvania Modified Lite
Racing Association, the Modified Lite STAR's International
Championship Tour and Team United Sanctioning Association (T-USA),
Bauer was looking for a new challenge. Bauer started his search for a
new opportunity by signing on as an official at Mercer (PA) Raceway
Park. Through that position, Bauer met Baselj. In addition to his work
with the Modified Tour, Baselj was a sponsor of the Modified Lite
class at the track. "I was able to help stabilize and grow the
Modified Lite division and to introduce them to Mercer as part of the
weekly program," Bauer said. "But I wanted to move up to full-sized
cars to expand my racing experiences and the Big Block Modifieds
seemed like a logical progression. I never thought that I would get
the opportunity to join the Modified Tour so quickly."
 
"Through the last 14 years my focus has been to provide economical and
competitive racing for the Modified Lite division, and I hope to
continue that with the Big Blocks.," Bauer added.
 
---
The BRP Modified Tour would like to thank the following series
sponsors: Bicknell Racing Products, Hoosier Race Tire, Sunoco Race
Fuel, Bilstein Shocks, Ray's Racing Collectibles, Approved Toilet
Rental, Lowry Auto Body, Lake Erie Speed Specialties, Hall's Safety
Equipment, Engles Trucking, Big Daddy's Speed Center, Priest
Enterprises, King Brothers Feed and Supply, Oyler Action Photos,
Finishline Fabrication, Wilkinson Awards, McCool's Signs and Graphics,
Hands on Concepts, Waldo's Towing, Jim's Supermarket, Pennewell
Sandblasting and Painting, Hands on Concepts and Wedge Motorsports.
 
The Modified Tour Inc. racing series is a non-profit organization
established to give the V-8 Modifieds in the Western Pennsylvania area
a chance to compete with one another for a higher purse structure and
for a point fund for the races that are run. Started in 1998 by Tim
Engles, Lon and Pam Baker and Randy Myers the Modified Tour has had
great success at bringing the local cars together at the area
racetracks.
