Inside Line Promotions – PORT ROYAL, Pa. (Oct. 18, 2016) – Dale Blaney heads into the Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions season finale this weekend ranked second in the championship standings.

Blaney and the Mainstream Holdings, Inc., backed CH Motorsports team is 18 points behind the leader in the standings as the series wraps up on Friday and Saturday at Atomic Speedway in Chillicothe, Ohio, where the race winner earns $20,000.

“We’ll just have to go down there and do the best we can,” he said. “We’ve had a lot of success there in the past. Hopefully we continue with that. I like my chances. My mindset going in is I’m not going to worry about the points. The only thing I’m concerned about is winning that race.”

Blaney has only competed at the high-banked oval once this season. He finished 16th in June. However, Blaney registered seven victories in 10 races at the track in 2014 and 2015.

Blaney competed in Central Pennsylvania last weekend during a pair of World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series races, beginning on Friday at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg for the National Open.

“I didn’t make a very good lap in turns three and four both laps and that got us behind a little bit,” he said. “I was happy with our heat. We jumped right into fourth and ran fourth the whole race.”

Blaney qualified 10th quickest in his group before placing fourth in a heat race. That locked him into the 16th starting position for the feature.

“My main goal was to get to the top 10,” he said. “I got there at one point. Restarts were really good for us. I was in the right lane every time. That’s really where we gained all our spots.”

Blaney advanced as high as 10th place before dropping a position in the closing laps to end 11th.

The weekend wrapped up on Saturday at Port Royal Speedway, where Blaney timed in sixth quickest in his group before he finished fourth in a heat race to again start the feature on the outside of the eighth row.

“I was really happy with our time trial effort,” he said. “We went out really late. I felt like I timed as good of a lap as I could. We just missed the front row of a heat race by half a tenth.

“In the feature I was hoping to get a top 10. I really felt like we ran pretty good. The starts hurt us. I always lost one or two and had to fight to get those back. I felt like starting 16th and running 16th doesn’t look good, but I felt good coming out of there.”

Blaney capped the weekend with a 16th-place finish.
