BROWNSBURG, Ind. (September 17, 2018) – Smoke’s return to Outlaw Speedway in Dundee, N.Y., with the Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Mobil 1 showed promise.
Although the evening started out not so stellar for the former three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion, qualifying fifth in his respective time trial group before finishing fifth during heat race action, Tony Stewart made the best of his situation and rebounded big during the 30-lap main event. Forced to start 14th, Stewart climbed through the field in a hurry, capturing MSD Performance Hard Charger Award honors on his way to a sixth place finish. It was Smoke’s 14th top-ten finish of the 2018 season against the All Star Circuit of Champions.
“We enjoy visiting Outlaw Speedway. It’s a fun, little place that usually boasts some really good racing. Hopefully we get an opportunity to return in the near-future,” Tony Stewart said, driver of the Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing/Rush Truck Centers/Textron Off Road/Ford Performance/Curb Records/Sage Fruit/No. 14 sprint car. “We’ve been working hard to improve our program. I’m not sure what our schedule has in store next, but the year is coming to a close quickly. We’ll do what we can to get back up front.”
Tony Stewart’s upcoming open wheel schedule remains uncertain. Fans are encouraged to stay alert via Tony Stewart Racing’s social media outlets for continuing schedule updates.
