2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Championship Standings: Fifth | 4470 points [142 points behind championship leader, Brad Sweet]

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (June 21, 2021) – Adding another chapter to an incredible open wheel career, Fargo, North Dakota’s Donny Schatz is now a 300-time winner with the Greatest Show On Dirt, third all-time, earning his milestone World of Outlaws triumph during action at the Dubuque Fairgrounds Speedway in Dubuque, Iowa, on Friday, June 18. The driver of the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing/Carquest Auto Parts/Curb Records/Ford Performance/Sage Fruit/Digital Ally/Advance Auto Parts/Rush Truck Centers/Absolute Automation and Security/Hunt Brothers Pizza/J&J Auto Racing/No. 15 sprint car started third on the feature grid, earning the top spot on lap 13 when David Gravel and Aaron Reutzel, who were battling in the top-two spots, each found themselves with cut tires.

Despite earning the lead with some added help from Lady Lucky, Schatz’ remaining path to victory lane was far from a cake walk, as the ten-time World of Outlaws champion was forced to withstand late pressure from Kasey Kahne Racing’s James McFadden, as well as a green-white-checkered finish.
Other weekend results for Schatz included a ninth-place performance at 34 Raceway on June 17, followed by an eight-place outcome at Beaver Dam Raceway on June 19. In all, Schatz has amassed 24 top-tens in 33 feature starts.

“It hasn’t sunk in,” an emotional Schatz told Dave Rieff in victory lane. “I thought this was gonna happen about 15 times already this year. That’s the way racing is, though. Sometimes the best things come to those who wait. It seems to be that way in life, and that way on the race track.

“I’m really glad my father was here for this one. He doesn’t get to go to all of them anymore, but he was here tonight.

“There was something about the atmosphere here that made me feel like tonight was gonna be the night. It’s just a really awesome setting on the fairgrounds here. Something about this part of the country is unique to a kid that grew up in North Dakota.”

Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing will continue their 2021 World of Outlaws campaign with a mega stretch through the upper Midwest, set to invade Huset’s Speedway for the Huset’s 50 doubleheader on Monday and Tuesday, June 21-22, followed by a 90-minute jaunt due east to Jackson Motorplex for the three-day Jackson Nationals on Thursday through Saturday, June 24-26. The Huset’s 50 finale will award a $30,000 top prize, with the Jackson Nationals finale awarding a $50,000 top prize.

In addition, a $100,000 bonus is on the line for any competitor who sweeps both finales at the Huset’s 50 on June 22 and Jackson Nationals on June 26, giving one driver the chance to cash in for more than $180,000 in just a matter of days.
