2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Championship Standings: Sixth | 5120 points [202 points behind championship leader, Brad Sweet]

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (June 28, 2021) – Despite mechanical issues leading to an early retirement during the $50,000-to-win Jackson Nationals finale at Jackson Motorplex on Sunday, June 27, ten-time World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series champion, Donny Schatz, opened his recent five-race campaign across the upper-Midwest with championship-worthy results, cashing in for a pair of podiums during Huset’s Speedway’s Huset’s 50 doubleheader on Monday and Tuesday, June 21-22. 

After opening Huset’s 50 competition with a runner-up finish during preliminary action on Monday, leading the first nine circuits before giving up the top spot to fellow World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series championship contender, David Gravel, Schatz returned to the Huset’s highbanks on Tuesday and nearly trumped his runner-up result, only to be outdueled by Brad Sweet and eventual winner, Aaron Reutzel. 

Firmly in second with just ten circuits remaining, Schatz did his best to get a run on the World of Outlaws Rookie of the Year contender, but Reutzel prevailed, outsprinting the Fargo, North Dakota-native to the finish; Brad Sweet snuck by Schatz with seven circuits remaining. 

Donny Schatz and 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 team continued their stretch through the upper-Midwest with the three-day Jackson Nationals at Jackson Motorplex on June 24-26. 

Although compelled to settle with a spot outside of the top-ten, Schatz’ most impressive performance of the week occurred during the three-day Jackson Nationals opener when the ten-time Series champ rallied from 23rd to finish 11th in the A-Main, all after finishing third from dead last in the Last Chance Showdown. The team was forced to start last after they resorted to a back up car following a heat race crash.

The following evening, Schatz rallied from 15th to finish 12th, eventually closing out the weekend with the aforementioned “DNF” during the $50,000 Jackson Nationals finale.

Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing will continue their 2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series campaign with a two-day stay at Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wisconsin.

Dubbed the Independence Day Spectacular, the two-day visit to Cedar Lake Speedway on Friday and Saturday, July 2-3, will not only award a pair of $10,000 top prizes, but it will activate a big money month for the Greatest Show On Dirt that includes Attica’s Brad Doty Classic, a pair of $175,000-to-win Kings Royals at Eldora Speedway, the $25,000-to-win Silver Cup at Lernerville Speedway, and the annual Summer Nationals at Williams Grove Speedway awarding $20,000.
