Story By: TLYER ALTMEYER / DANNY DIETRICH RACING – MECHANICSBURG, PA – Danny Dietrich put together an impressive, and ultimately consistent stretch of results during the recent weekend, not only solidifying a perfect momentum kick before the upcoming World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series invasion, but padding his stat sheet with back-to-back third-place finishes during competition at Williams Grove Speedway and Lincoln Speedway on Friday and Saturday, May 5-6. Dietrich’s top-five count now sits at 13 on the year, one of those a recent victory at Selinsgrove Speedway.
As hinted, Dietrich, ace of Gary Kauffman’s Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Pace Performance, #1 Cochran Expressway, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, Drop Of Ink Tattoo, Self Made Racing, No. 48 sprint car, will work to defend home dirt against the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series during the coming week, which will blast off on Wednesday, May 10, with the annual Gettysburg Clash at Lincoln Speedway. Not stopping there, the World of Outlaws and Pennsylvania Posse rivalry will continue with Williams Grove Speedway’s annual Morgan Cup set for Friday and Saturday, May 5-6; $17,000 will go to the weekend finale winner.
Certainly no stranger to Outlaws action in the Keystone State, Dietrich finished sixth against the Greatest Show On Dirt during their most recent visit to Lincoln Speedway on Saturday, March 18.
“We’re ready to see what we can do,” Dietrich noted. “We had a really consistent weekend again, but like anyone, we’re always wanting more. To beat the Outlaws at home is really special and it’s a tough feeling to ever top. I think we have what it takes to beat them at both tracks.”
Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing will continue their 2023 campaign with a full swing of World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series competition, first visiting Lincoln Speedway in Abbottstown, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, May 10, followed by back-to-back visits to Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, on Friday and Saturday, May 12-13. The weekend will conclude with the annual Ray Tilley Classic at Selinsgrove Speedway on Sunday, May 14; it is an open event with no sanction.
