Inside Line Promotions – MESQUITE, Texas (April 22, 2014) – Danny Lasoski has reunited with former car owners and friends Dennis and Teresa Roth of Roth Motorsports.
Lasoski, who drove for the Roth’s from 1997 to 2000 and then claimed the National Sprint Tour championship in 2006, received a call last week about hopping into the car for the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series Texas Outlaw Nationals at Devil’s Bowl Speedway.
“Dennis and Teresa Roth mean so much to me as not only car owners, but as friends,” Lasoski said. “I was really honored. I want to thank them for believing in me.”
Lasoski opened the doubleheader on Friday by using the same setup the team had with its previous driver.
“It was terribly loose the first night,” he said. “It just didn’t fit my driving style. The car was down and sliding. Thanks to Todd Ventura and the guys. They worked hard all night long. We didn’t get the result we wanted, but we knew what we wanted to fix for the next night.”
After advancing from 17th to a 12th-place finish in the main event on Friday, Lasoski and the Roth Motorsports team worked on the setup on Saturday. Shock guru Wayne Priddy adjusted the shocks and the team changed some of the setup.
Lasoski qualified 10th quickest and placed second in his heat race to advance to the main event. After starting on the outside of the fifth row in the feature, Lasoski began to maneuver toward the top five.
“Then the motor started laying down and I couldn’t figure out what was going on,” he said. “The next thing I knew the nozzle line came off. I got covered with fuel. My guess is it got knocked off.”
Lasoski, who was inside the top 10 when the issue occurred, was unable to finish the race.
“We saw advances throughout the weekend,” he said. “I can’t thank Dennis, Teresa, Todd and the whole team enough for the opportunity and I look forward to the next test this weekend.”
Lasoski will remain in the Roth Motorsports car for this weekend’s World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series races at Salina Highbanks Speedway in Salina, Okla., on Friday and at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, Mo., on Saturday.
