ALL STAR SPRINTS PREPARE FOR FLORIDA EVENTS

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – An exciting new era for the UNOH All Star Circuit of Champion Sprint Car Series – the nation’s original traveling sprint car series – will kick off with five races over eight days in sunny FLORIDA beginning Thursday, Feb. 5 at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Fla.

The new All Stars will embark under the leadership of series owner Tony Stewart, who has energized “America’s Series” - its fans, race teams and tracks. Stewart, the three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Champion and former IndyCar and USAC triple-crown champion, will be very visible during the UNOH All Star events in Florida.

The All Stars – with a new attitude – will kick off the season at the Bubba Army Winter Nationals with three $5,000-to-win events - Thursday, Feb. 5, Friday, Feb. 6 and Saturday, Feb. 7. The UNOH All Stars then travel a short distance to Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Florida to be part of the DIRTcar Nationals. The All Stars will compete Wednesday, Feb. 11 and Thursday, Feb. 12.

Due to the recent change in ownership of the UNOH All Stars, the events in Florida, while sanctioned by the series, will not count toward the 2015 national point championship. However, tow money will be distributed according to 2014 point standings (competitor bulletin posted at www.AllStarSprint.com).

Five-time and defending All Star champion Dale Blaney will lead a strong contingent of All Star drivers. Expected to compete is four-time series champion Chad Kemenah; Danny Holtgraver, new comer Ryan Smith, 2014 national 410 winged sprint car rookie of the year Aaron Reutzel, Cale Thomas, Jac and Sheldon Haudenschild, two-time series champion Greg Wilson and four-time All Star champion Tim Shaffer.

The UNOH All Star events in Florida also draw many of the World of Outlaw teams like 20-time champion Steve Kinser. Look for “The Madman” Kerry Madsen, Craig Dollansky, Joey Saldana and more to compete.
Adding to the excitement will be several drivers from the PA Posse and various regional series.
