CONCORD , NC – Feb. 23, 2007 – Fast-rising star Josh Richards and versatile veteran standout Tim Fuller will discuss the 360 OTC World of Outlaws Late Model Series on Monday night (Feb. 26) as guests of the popular talk show ‘Dirt Nation presented by Lucas Oil.’
Richards is coming off a victory in the 360 OTC WoO LMS season opener on Feb. 18 at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville , Fla. , while Fuller confirmed his plans to chase the tour’s 2007 Rookie of the Year award during his participation in the week-long Florida DIRTcar Nationals at the half-mile oval.
Hosted by Dave Seay, ‘Dirt Nation’ airs on Mondays from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. EST on radio station WLRT-1490 ‘The Outlaw’ in the Hampton , Va. , area and over the internet at www.racetalklive.com and www.dirtnation.net.
Richards, 18, of Shinnston , W.Va. , will make a return ‘Dirt Nation’ visit with Seay to talk about his spectacular burst out of the 2007 starting gate. The driver known as ‘Kid Rocket’ became the youngest points leader in the history of the 360 OTC WoO LMS with his convincing win in the tour’s lidlifter at Volusia, and his strong finishes in Volusia’s three preceding UMP Late Model events earned him recognition as the 2007 Florida DIRTcar Nationals points champion.
Also a past guest on ‘Dirt Nation,’ Fuller, 39, of Watertown, N.Y., is an accomplished DIRT big-block Modified driver who is planning to increase his dirt Late Model schedule in 2007. After showing flashes of his potential behind the wheel of a dirt Late Model during three weeks of February racing down south – including a dramatic heat-race victory to qualify for the 360 OTC WoO LMS season opener – Fuller figures to be a prime contender for the tour’s $15,000 Rookie of the Year prize, which will be determined by a formula that uses a driver’s best 30 finishes in 360 OTC WoO LMS competition.
Both Richards and Fuller are currently gearing up for the next events on the 360 OTC WoO LMS schedule – next month’s ‘World of Outlaws March Through Dixie’ on Fri., March 23, at Baton Rouge Raceway in Baker, La.; Sat., March 24, at Columbus (Miss.) Speedway; and Sun., March 25, at North Alabama Speedway in Tuscumbia, Ala.
Also scheduled as guests on Monday night’s ‘Dirt Nation’ show are DIRT big-block Modified star Danny Johnson of Phelps, N.Y., who won twice at Volusia en route to the Florida DIRTcar Nationals title for the Advance Auto Parts Super DIRT Series big-block Modifieds, and World of Outlaws Sprint Car racer Tony Bruce Jr. of Liberal, Kans., a candidate for the tour’s Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year Award.
