Watertown, Conn.—March 17, 2013 — Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, California, can be one of the toughest, most grueling and challenging tracks on the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series schedule. This was certainly the case this past weekend as many of the veteran drivers battled with and were bit by the high-banked, third-mile bullring. How did David Gravel stack up in his first visit to Tulare? Pretty well, as he finished fourth on the opening night, continuing his...more

Bloomington, Ind.—March 17, 2013— There are a few tracks on the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series circuit that really test a driver’s mettle. One of those is Thunderbowl Raceway in Tulare, Calif. The high-banked, third-mile usually requires a driver to “sit up in the seat” a little more than normal and get their “elbows up.” That was definitely the case on the opening night of the World of Outlaws two-night event at the track this past weekend. The finale...more

Another night of action on the tight 1/3-mile bullring of Thunderbowl Raceway was on tap Saturday for Craig Dollansky and the rest of the STP World of Outlaws following a top-ten performance by the Eyecon Trail Cameras #7 team the prior night. A pill draw of 30th out of 31 competitors looked like it might put the #7 in an early hole to start the racing program but ‘The Crowd Pleaser’ was able to power the Aggressive Hydraulics Maxim to a solid 6th quickest at 13.380...more
