Schlieper Tackles Lawrenceburg and Bardstown
Last Weekend...
The
Dan Schlieper Racing team invaded the Hoosier State of Indiana and
the Commonwealth of Kentucky last weekend for a pair of Lucas Oil
Late Model Dirt Series events. On Friday night, August 22, the Lawrenceburg
Speedway in Lawrenceburg, Indiana played host to a $7,000 to win series
race. Dan Schlieper ran fifth in his heat race before finishing second
in the B-Main. After rolling off for the 40-lap main event from the
outside of the ninth row, Dan was able to move his #9 entry past five
cars en route to a thirteenth place performance.
The following night took the #9 team to the Bluegrass Speedway in
Bardstown, Kentucky for the annual running of the 'Bluegrass Classic.'
The SPEED Channel cameras were on hand to tape the wheel-to-wheel
racing action for broadcast later in the year. Dan unfortunately could
not find his way into the $10,000 to win 'Bluegrass Classic' after
running ninth in his heat race and eighth in his B-Main. The Sullivan,
Wisconsin native currently finds himself eighth in the latest version
of the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series points battle following the
doubleheader weekend. You can view full results online at www.lucasdirt.com.

#9 Team in Action During 'North/South 100' Weekend
at Florence...
The
Dan Schlieper Racing team, with Dan Schlieper behind the wheel of
their #9 entry, invaded the Florence Speedway in Union, Kentucky on
August 8-9 for the annual running of the 'North/South 100.' The Lucas
Oil Late Model Dirt Series sanctioned the historic Dirt Late Model
event, which boasted a $50,000 top prize. Dan was sixth fastest in
his group during qualifying on Friday evening. When the action resumed
at the Cincinnati area venue on Saturday, Dan finished ninth in his
heat race and nineteenth in his B-Main. Unfortunately, those efforts
were not good enough to transfer the Sullivan, Wisconsin native into
the 100-lap main event, which was taped by the cameras of the SPEED
Channel. You can view complete results from the 'North/South 100'
online at www.lucasdirt.com.
