Inside Line Promotions – BILLINGS, Mont. (Aug. 1, 2016) – Former World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series champion Danny Lasoski will be racing at Billings Motorsports Park on Sept. 9-10.

Lasoski and car owner Mark Burch are making the haul for the final weekend of the NSA Shootout, which pays $2,000 to win during the opener and $7,500 to win and $500 to start the finale.

“It’s great that Mike Quigley and his team at Billings Motorsports Park are stepping up and offering a great purse,” Lasoski said. “Hopefully we can add a little excitement to it and come away with a win or two.”

Lasoski said he hasn’t visited the 3/8-mile oval in more than a decade since stops with the World of Outlaws in 2004 and 2005. Both seasons featured doubleheaders with Lasoski finishing second to Steve Kinser during the two races in 2004 before Lasoski posted top fives during the two-race weekend in 2005.

“I’m really looking forward to getting back there and racing again in Montana,” he said. “I haven’t been able to race there in a few years, but it’s a beautiful state. We’ll certainly enjoy the scenery and hopefully that will include a trip or two into Victory Lane.”

Lasoski recently clinched his record 11th track championship at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, and he leads the National Sprint League championship standings with only eight points-paying races remaining this season.

Aaron Reutzel captured the $7,500 top prize for winning the opening doubleheader of the NSA Shootout at Billings Motorsports Park on July 16 following a rain out on Night 1.

Next up, the NSA Shootout features a trip to Canada on Aug. 26-27 for the 61st annual Gold Cup at Castrol Raceway in Edmonton, Alberta.
