Dan Schlieper Racing Slings Dirt at Duck
River and North Georgia...
Dan
Schlieper and his #9 Dirt Late Model team were back on the Lucas Oil
Late Model Dirt Series trail last weekend (June 11-13) in the states
of Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama. On Thursday night, the Duck River
Speedway in Wheel, Tennessee played host to a $7,000 to win show.
Dan unfortunately did not transfer into the 40-lap main event after
running seventh in his heat race and fifth in his B-Main. At the North
Georgia Speedway in Chatsworth, Georgia on Friday evening, Dan rolled
off twenty-fifth on the grid in the $10,000 to win A-Main. The Sullivan,
Wisconsin native was then able to pick up seven spots during the 50-lap
feature en route to an eighteenth place effort.
Saturday's $10,000 to win weekend finale at the Talladega Short Track
in Eastaboga, Alabama was won by Mother Nature. You can view complete

The
Dan Schlieper Racing team made their yearly trek to the famed Eldora
Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio on Friday and Saturday, June 5-6 for the
15th Annual 'Dream 100.' The crown jewel spectacular once again paid
a whopping $100,000 to the winner. Dan Schlieper timed in forty-seventh
fastest during qualifying on Friday night and later ran fifth in his
stacked heat race on Saturday. The Sullivan, Wisconsin driver was
hoping for a top four run in his B-Main, but his thirteenth place
consolation race finish was unfortunately not good enough to transfer
him into the 100-lap 'Dream 100.' You can view complete results from
