Lebanon I-44 Speedway Date Moved To May 3, Event At Monett Speedway On May 4 Added To World of Outlaws Late Model Series Schedule

Announcement Sets Up Big Springtime World of Outlaws Weekend In Missouri

CONCORD, NC – March 8, 2008 – The World of Outlaws Late Model Series will invade Missouri in a big way to usher in the month of May.

WoO LMS officials have announced that a previously-scheduled tour date at Lebanon I-44 Speedway has been moved back one week, to Sat., May 3, and an event has been added at Monett Speedway on Sun., May 4, setting up two consecutive nights of Outlaws action in the Show-Me State.

Both tracks are operated by veteran promoter Randy Mooneyham.

Lebanon I-44 Speedway, a high-banked, three-eighths-mile oval located in the south-central portion of Missouri, was originally scheduled to host the WoO LMS on Sat., April 26. Instead, the 50-lap, $10,000-to-win event will be moved to Sat., May 3, and Mooneyham will open the gates of his three-eighths-mile, semi-banked Monett track on Sun., May 4, to provide teams and fans an attractive WoO LMS doubleheader.

This will mark the fourth year in a row that the WoO LMS visits Lebanon I-44 Speedway, which also hosted a series event in 1988 during the inaugural WoO LMS season directed by late Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series founder Ted Johnson. Previous WoO LMS winners at Lebanon I-44 include Clint Smith (2007), Brian Birkhofer (2006), Steve Francis (2005) and Billy Moyer (1988).

Monett Speedway, a long-running oval that sits roughly 100 miles southwest of Lebanon I-44 Speedway, will be part of the WoO LMS for the first time. The Sunday-night event will feature a 40-lap A-Main that pays $7,000 to win.

Both races will be co-sanctioned by the O’Reilly MARS DIRTcar Series and utilize the UMP DIRTcar Super Late Model Hoosier tire rule.

The addition of Monett increases the current 2008 WoO LMS schedule to 47 confirmed events at 40 tracks in 22 states and three Canadian provinces.

WoO LMS officials expect to announce several additional events in the coming days that will likely push the schedule over 50 races.
