EXCITEMENT LEVEL GROWING FOR U.S. STEEL DTWC
Lucas Oil Points Battle Adds Added twist
Waverly, OH: With the 31st annual U.S. Steel Dirt Track World Championship at K-C Raceway just around the corner the excitement level is increasing. With the return to K-C Raceway and the action the four prior DTWC’s held at Jeff Schrader’s high banked 3/8 mile track just south of Chillicothe, Ohio. In 2005 it was Scott Bloomquist winning his only Dirt Track World Championship to date. 2006 would see Bloomquist as a major player again with he and Shannon Babb battling side by side with Babb taking his second DTWC win. Fans saw Chub Frank win a heated battle with Josh Richards in 2007 collecting his first DTWC title. In 2008 Brian Birkhoffer may have been dominate in winning his DTWC but the standing room only crowd will tell you that positions 2nd thru 9th were constantly changing as drivers battled through out the 100 lap feature.
