All Star Circuit of Champions
Lernerville’s Silver Cup kicks-off massive July sweep for All Stars including seven-race Midwest invasion
BROWNSBURG, Ind. (July 16, 2023) - Although a slow start to the month that witnessed the Tezos All Star Circuit of Champions presented by Mobil 1 compete on two occasions on Friday and Saturday, July 7-8, invading Ransomville Speedway in Ransomville, New York, and Sharon Speedway in Hartford, Ohio, in respective fashion, things are about to go full tilt, as the Series will partake in eight events between Tuesday, July 18, and Saturday, July 29, all of which blasting off with Lernerville Speedway’s annual Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup on Tuesday, July 18.
The highest paying program on the All Stars’ July slate, Lernerville’s Silver Cup, commemorating the life and achievements of former track promoter, Don Martin, will award a $25,000 payday, continuing a long standing track tradition that dates back to 1992. The Western Pennsylvania blockbuster will feature the All Star Circuit of Champions at Lernerville Speedway for the first and only time in 2023, and the Series will not return to the western half of the Keystone State this season.
The All Stars’ July campaign will continue due west with a three-race schedule through Iowa and Illinois on Friday through Sunday, July 21-23, beginning with a visit to the always-exciting 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, on Friday, July 21. The $7,000-to-win headliner will be flanked with Spoon River Speedway’s inaugural NOS Energy Drink presents The Rumble on the River on Saturday, July 22, followed by a visit to Red Hill Raceway in Sumner, Illinois, on Sunday, July 23. Each of the stops in the Land of Lincoln, Spoon River and Red Hill, will award $8,000 top prizes.
After a two-day break, Midwest action will continue with an $8,000-to-win stop in the Show-Me State, visiting Benton Speedway in Benton, Missouri, on Wednesday, July 26. Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, Missouri, will host the All Star Circuit of Champions for a $6,000-to-win program on Thursday, July 27, followed by an invasion of the state-of-the-art I-70 Motorsports Park in Odessa, Missouri, on Friday, July 28. The final Missouri visit of the season will award an $8,000 payday.
Concluding the Series’ Midwest takeover, the Sprint Car Capital of the World, Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, will host “America’s Series” on Saturday, July 29, welcoming the Tony Stewart-owned organization for the first and only time in 2023. The Saturday night staple will award $8,000, simultaneously giving All Star competitors a taste of Knoxville Raceway prior to the coveted Knoxville Nationals in mid-August.
As noted, the All Star Circuit of Champions will enter their massive July slate with recent visits to Ransomville Speedway and Sharon Speedway on July 7-8. The New York/Ohio weekend witnessed two dominations, as Rudeen Racing’s Zeb Wise nearly lapped the field for a $15,000 score at Ransomville, followed by a perfect 35-for-35 effort by “Sunshine” Tyler Courtney at Sharon. Sunshine, ace of the Clauson Marshall Racing/NOS Energy Drink No. 7BC, will head into Lernerville’s Silver Cup as the current Series point leader, chasing a third title in as many tries.
Lane Racing’s Chris Windom is currently second in the All Star driver standings, followed by Zeb Wise, the “Steel City Outlaw” Tim Shaffer, and Rookie of the Year contender, J.J. Hickle.
