2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Championship Standings: Fourth | 3506 points [150 points behind championship leader, Brad Sweet]

BROWNSBURG, Ind. (May 25, 2021) – Donny Schatz and Tony Stewart/Curb-Agajanian Racing put together a successful string of results during their recent World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series stretch, ultimately translating a trio of A-Main starts into a pair of top-five outcomes, highlighting the week with a runner-up finish at Attica Raceway Park in Attica, Ohio, on Friday, May 21.

Schatz, 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, was actually battling for third at Attica when the main event’s final caution appeared on the white flag lap, displayed for race leader, Sheldon Haudenschild, who fell victim to a spinning lapped car. Fellow WoO championship contender, David Gravel, inherited the top spot and drove on to score the win.

“I don’t know if we could’ve got him, we just seemed to struggle at the end,” Schatz claimed afterwards at Attica. “These guys are digging, though. We’re doing everything we can. We’ll get there, it’s just taking longer than we expected.”

Prior to his Attica visit, the ten-time World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series champion kicked-off his recent stretch with a fourth-place result at Bridgeport Motorsports Park in Swedesboro, New Jersey, on Tuesday, May 18. It was a solid night across the board for Schatz, as the Fargo, North Dakota-native timed second quick overall, finished second during his respective heat race and third in the evening’s dash.

Despite having to start 19th, Schatz’ Sharon Speedway finish on Saturday, May 22, was respectable in its own right, eventually climbing ahead eight spots to salvage an eleventh-place finish. Schatz was forced to start deep after failing to transfer out of his respective heat race; mechanical issues were the culprit, but he would go on to win the Last Chance Showdown.

Schatz’ recent successes not only padded the stat book, now with 15 top-five finishes in 26 World of Outlaws starts, but Schatz also used his momentum boost to climb to fourth in the Series title chase; a two-spot climb since the Morgan Cup doubleheader at Williams Grove Speedway.

Donny Schatz and Tony Stewat/Curb-Agajanian Racing will continue their 2021 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series title chase with a two-pack in the Hoosier State, set to invade the Terre Haute Action Track on Friday, May 28, followed by a routine visit to the highbanks of Lawrenceburg Speedway on Monday, May 31. Still in search of that elusive milestone victory, a win on Friday at Terre Haute would propel Schatz’ World of Outlaws win total to 300 all-time.
