Kilgore, TX-March 12, 2010-Craig Dollansky had been fast right out of the box in 2010, but had been plagued with bad luck in nearly every one of the first five World of Outlaws events of the season. He put all of that behind him on Friday night at Lone Star Speedway in Kilgore, Texas, turning in a very strong performance from start to finish en route to picking up his first World of Outlaws victory of the season.
For Dollansky, the $10,000 win over 20-time World of Outlaws champion Steve Kinser and current series point leader Joey Saldana, was the 32nd of his World of Outlaws career. It was his second career victory in Texas and his first in the state since 2001. Continue reading »

Kilgore TX (1/23/10) by DarinShort.com. The long-awaited reopening of Lone Star Speedway (LSS) took place a year ago, after new owners Lisa and Sam Hafertepe gave the facility a much needed and massive makeover. Fans were treated to several great events throughout the season at the ultra-fast ½ mile high-banked clay oval.
2010 will be no different, as right out of the gate on Friday March 12th the return of the “Fastest Show on Dirt” will make its way back to LSS when the World of Outlaws Sprint Series stages its only scheduled visit of the season. Names of the likes of Steve and Kraig Kinser, Danny Lasoski, Donny Schatz, Craig Dollansky, Joey Saldana, Jason Meyers and son of LSS track owners Sam Hafertepe Jr., amongst many others, will take part in a full night of qualifying, heats, dash and feature race competition. This date was recently announced and support division(s) will be listed on the track website when that news becomes available. Continue reading »

Lonestar Speedway is proud to announce the release of another race date. March 14th will be the official grand opening for Lonestar Speedway. We will be hosting the SUPR Late Models (Southern United Professional Racing Dirt Late Models) along with another class yet to be determined. The SUPR Dirt Late Model Series started in 1990 by racer and promoter Donald Watson, and by former owner of Boothill Speedway, Roxy Dancy. SUPR has grown from the initial campaign of 15 races at five tracks in two states to 2001′s schedule of 34 races at 16 facilities in seven states. Most of the series growth came after introduction of economical spec engine in 1993. SUPR celebrated it’s tenth year anniversary in1999 with the addition of O’Reilly Auto Parts as title sponsor for the series and in 2007 the O’Reilly SUPR Series has expanded to include a Modified Series. Don’t forget that the World of Outlaw Sprint Cars will be returning to Lonestar on April 10th. Tickets for that show will be available very soon so stay tuned to www.lonestarspeedway.com for more upcoming events and ticket information as the race season nears.
