DIRTcar Racing Withdraws Sanctioning Of Jan. 12-20 ‘Winter Extreme’ Late Models Series At Tucson International Raceway

CONCORD, NC – Dec. 4, 2012 – DIRTcar Racing has withdrawn its sanctioning of the upcoming Jan. 12-20 ‘Winter Extreme’ Late Model event at Tucson International Raceway, organization officials announced on Tuesday.

The six-race series was slated to offer DIRTcar UMP national and Southwest States points after DIRTcar and Tucson officials struck an agreement last month, but DIRTcar was ultimately forced to rescind the event’s sanctioning because Tucson management opted not to follow DIRTcar rules.

The Winter Extreme announcement does not affect the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series ‘Wildcat Shootout’ scheduled for March 9 at Tucson International Raceway. Tickets to the World of Outlaws event are currently on sale at www.worldofoutlaws.com/tickets.

Additional info on all of the series, sanctioning and member tracks of DIRTcar Racing is available at www.DIRTcar.com .
