MECHANICSBURG, PA -- Fans and competitors of the Saturday Night Series are due for a break in the weather and they're hoping it will come May 10 at Williams Grove Speedway.
Only two Saturday Night Series events have been completed this season with the most recent on April 12. If the May 10 date should be lost, the next SNS event is not scheduled until May 31, which would mean a seven-week gap between races. With that in mind, the cars should be out in droves this week provided the weather co-operates. |

MECHANICSBURG, PA -- One of the most anticipated double headers of the season is coming up at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday evening, May 9, when the late model stock cars will share the pit area with the All Star Circuit of Champions sprint cars. Qualifying for the All Star sprint cars is scheduled to begin at 7:30. An All Star car has never won an All Star sanctioned feature at the Grove, but this could be the year the Pennsylvania Posse's 17-race winning streak comes to an end. The All Stars will be led this season by none other than Lance Dewease. Dewease, a 5-time Cindy Rowe Auto Glass track champion and winner of 67 career features at the Grove, has committed to the full All Star schedule for 2008 and will be representing that organization on May 9. |

Knoxville, IA— May 3, 2008— Donny Schatz knows the history of Knoxville Raceway very well and he added his name to that history in three different ways on Saturday night. Not only did he put himself in elite company of drivers that have won on opening night at the famed half-mile in Iowa , but he also set a new track record for a 25-lap event, as the race was completed in just seven minutes and 14 seconds.
On top of that, the two-time defending Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series champion and two-time defending Knoxville Nationals winner, picked up his first A-Feature triumph with the series, driving for Tony Stewart Racing.
Schatz took the lead on the 18th lap, powering his way past Steve Kinser on the high-side of the track exiting the fourth turn. One lap earlier he nearly took the lead at the same spot on the track with a similar move. He quickly opened an advantage aboard the Armor All J&J en route to his 71st career Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series A-Feature win, which moved him into the fifth spot on the all-time win list ahead of 1995 series champion Dave Blaney. He pocketed $10,000 for the win, which was the eighth of his career at Knoxville Raceway.
