Inside Line Promotions – LAWRENCEBURG, Ind. (June 2, 2022) – Robbie Price made his first World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series A Main behind the wheel of the Sides Motorsports No. 7s last Saturday at Atomic Speedway.
Price kicked off the night at the high-banked oval in Chillicothe, Ohio, by qualifying ninth quickest in his group. He then finished where he started – fifth – in a heat race to lock into the main event. Price battled for a top 15 throughout the feature before ending 16th – his best World of Outlaws result since a 13th-place outing last September.
“It’s going pretty good,” car owner Jason Sides said. “Some of these tracks he hasn’t been to is a stepping stone for him. We’re trying to get both of us acclimated together to reading the race tracks and making progress from there.
“He qualified pretty good and put himself in a position to get through the heat race. It’s all about qualifying. You have to get that set up to where you can race you’re way in. Then once you’re in the feature you get 30 laps to learn. He was able to do that at Atomic. We did pretty good there.”
The holiday weekend concluded on Monday at Lawrenceburg Speedway, where Price timed in 14th quickest in his group. He placed seventh in a heat race and eighth in the Last Chance Showdown.
“He was just as good as the other cars there, but it was all track position,” Sides said. “Once it got strung out there it was difficult to pass until the feature. That’s where qualifying is so important.”
The team is headed to River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D., on Friday for the 1st Leg of the Northern Tour and to Huset’s Speedway in Brandon, S.D., on Sunday for the Ace Ready Mix and Myrl & Roy’s presents the World of Outlaws.
“The tracks this weekend will be maybe more his style with some of the tracks he’s raced on,” Sides said. “We’re looking forward to both of those race tracks. Hopefully we can get qualified well, make the main events and continue to improve together.”
