contains caffeine plus Guarana and Ginseng for maximum energy. Fans are
invited to stop by Justin’s trailer in the pits for free samples. “We
like the sport and the fans of sprint car racing,” said Jolt President
Kevin Gass. “We did a program last year that was more of a regional
effort with good results and this year we wanted to get more of a
national presence. The World of Outlaws and Justin Henderson brings
that and more. During those 40 lap features, Justin can pop two pieces
of Jolt before the race and be ready to blast by the competition. We
are looking forward to a very long and prosperous relationship with
Justin and helping in him his mission of winning Rookie of the Year
honors.” Henderson’s machine is now the Race Girl/Jolt Energy Gum
Schnee powered by Hollywood Engines.

QUOTABLE
The World of Outlaws Mean 15 racers offer their thoughts about this
weekend’s event at Eldora Speedway

Becca Anderson, driver of the No. 19 Woodring Racing JEI
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “Eldora is going to be pretty exciting.
Hopefully we’ll get the car going a little better and not so tight so
we can get up on the wall and get going. It’s going to be exciting to
have Kenny Jacobs there as a team car because Kenny gets around the
place so well. Hopefully I’ll learn something from him. … You
definitely want to get running against the wall, not in the wall or on
the wall. It’s one of those things where you can’t be intimidated by
the track but you have to respect it all at once.”

Jeremy Campbell, driver of the No. 10C Americas Best Value Inn Maxim
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “It’s always fun. It’s awesome running
at Eldora. It’s got the speed going so fast. Running up against the
wall. It’s a real competitive racetrack. Anybody can win there. It just
depends on who is quick and who can make the last move at the last time
and get across the finish line. … When you’re going through those
turns, you’re cruising. There is no rollercoaster out there like it.
It’s awesome.”

Brian Carlson, driver of the No. 18 Lincoln Electric Maxim
• On racing Eldora Speedway: “I guess the one thing about Eldora is
that you have to be comfortable there. Even if the track slicks off,
it’s still real fast. On some nights it’s right against the fence and
there isn’t much to lean on. Lately it seems like some guys have been
working the middle and the bottom pretty good. The big thing is the
momentum. You have to keep your momentum up there. It’s a track where
if you feel comfortable you seem to go fast. We’ve done pretty well
there in the past so I’m looking forward to getting back to some
familiar ground.”

Craig Dollansky, driver of the No. 7 Karavan Trailers Maxim
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “I always enjoy going to Eldora. It’s
definitely one of my favorite racetracks. There’s a lot of speed there,
a lot of action goes on racing back-and-forth. Hitting that place in
the springtime is definitely something I look forward to.”
• On the World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora: “Those guys
have been doing a good job. They just need to get acquainted with the
place and get comfortable before they push the envelope too hard.”

Randy Hannagan, driver of the No. 1X Terry Hannagan Racing Maxim
• On racing at Eldora: “It’s good for me because I’ve had some success
there and I need to carry it over to this year, plus it’s close to
home. … The speed is kind of relevant, but the racing is good. When the
track gets slick it gets real racy. It’s one of the raciest racetracks
we go to and I really enjoy that part of it. It’s not a
follow-the-leader type of place. Starting position doesn’t mean a whole
lot because if you’re car is good you can pass and work your way to the
front. It’s a place where I have to be consistent. I’ve won some races
there and I like it. The more speed the better.”

Jac Haudenschild, driver of the No. 35 Wright One Construction Maxim
• On racing at Eldora: “We’re looking forward to getting back to
Eldora. We’re just getting started. The Rick Wright car has been
feeling pretty good to us. Paul and Bonzai have the car going real
good.”
• On the World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora: “There isn’t
much you can say. Most of those guys have raced quite a few races.
Eldora is probably a little different than most of them. It’s got a
little bank and it’s real wide, but all these guys out here are a
pretty good bunch of guys and have a lot of laps. I think they’ll do
fine.”

Justin Henderson, driver of the No. D1 Race Girl/Jolt Energy Gum Schnee
powered by Hollywood Engines
• On racing at Eldora for the first time: “When we go to Eldora, I’m
really looking forward to the high speeds and running everywhere on the
racetrack, passing back-and-forth. It’s a real high-speed racetrack.
I’ve been to Knoxville, but Eldora has such a bank to it. I want to see
the bank, for one. I’ve heard a lot about it, but I really want to race
at the higher speeds. It’s going to be a lot of fun for us, plus it’s
historic so getting our sponsors names out there is good for everybody.
• On what to expect in his first race at Eldora: “I’ve talked to quite
a few people who have raced there before and they said just get ready
to stand on the gas. It’s a wide-open type of racetrack and hopefully
our car is balanced right and we can go wide open. I’m really looking
forward to going. It’ll be the fastest I’ve ever gone I’m sure.”

Dion Hindi, driver of the No. 11D RealTruck.com J&J
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “I’ve had some good races and bad races
there. It’s really when you’re on the racetrack you don’t have the
sensation of speed. It’s like everything condenses down and it doesn’t
feel as big as it is. It’s usually a pretty good racetrack. We are
looking forward to getting back there and hopefully running pretty
good.”

Chad Kemenah, driver of the No. 15K Underground Utilities Inc. Eagle
• On racing at Eldora: “There’s no place like Eldora. Eldora is just a
place of its own. It’s really fun because of the speeds and it’s
usually a really good show for the fans.”
• On several World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora for the
first time: “The only thing I’d say to anybody who is racing Eldora for
the first time is that you better have respect for it because if not
it’ll get you. There’s just no substitute for seat time at that place,
that’s the biggest thing about Eldora.”

Jason Martin, driver of the No. 36 NOS Energy Drink/Mafia Motorsports
Maxim who is recovering from injuries sustained in an early season
crash. Eldora veteran Rob Chaney will pilot the car this weekend
• On Eldora Speedway: “I’ve been there before, but I’m really excited
about it because Rob’s always gone real good there. Hopefully we can
pull something out of our hat and get something good there.”
• On when he’ll return to action: “I’m looking to get back in on May 1.
I want to get back in at Lawrenceburg (April 21), but we’ll just have
to see.”

Terry McCarl, driver of the No. 24 Big Game Treestands Eagle
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “I hadn’t been there since 1997 going
into last year and I was a little leery of it. I was that way with a
few tracks so I’m glad we got last year under our belt. Every time we
went back I got better and better and got my qualifying down right away
after the first time we were there. Then we finished second the last
time we were there. I like Eldora. I like tracks with fences because I
like to bang off the fence. Now I’ve got a year back under my belt and
I feel real comfortable there and I’m really looking forward to going
back.”

Daryn Pittman, driver of the No. 21 Titan Garages & Carports Maxim
• On racing at Eldora: “I always look forward to going to Eldora. It’s
a lot of fun and one of my favorite racetracks to go run at. It’s the
first real true test of speed. We’ll have a tough car count. It’s
always a tough place and it’s a lot of fun when you’re good there.”
• On several World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora for the
first time: “That place is tough on my 50th trip if I’ve been there
that many times, let alone my first. It’s the most fun racetrack when
you have a good car and the worst whenever you don’t have a very good
car. It’s a learning curve every time everybody goes there.”

Joey Saldana, driver of the No. 9 Central Merchant Services Inc. JEI
powered by Mopar
• On racing at Eldora: “It’s the track that I grew up at. The All Stars
run there a lot so it was a track I got used to racing at.”
• On several World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora for the
first time: “That track’s a track where experience matters most. You
could tell somebody until you’re blue in the face, but it has nothing
to do with anything until the driver figures it out. You just hope
nothing crazy happens and they get some good laps and get some
experience.”

Donny Schatz, driver of the No. 15 ParkerStore J&J
• On racing at Eldora Speedway: “It’s one of those places where we
haven’t shined. We’re excited to go back there. We have a lot of things
we want to try. Obviously when we go there in the spring the weather is
cold and the motors run real good so there could be a new track record.
Maybe it’ll be us, maybe it’ll be somebody else but there’s always the
threat of doing that. That’s a neat thing to do at Eldora and that’s
about the only time of the year you can do it. … We just want to get
ourselves in a good position for the Kings Royal so we’re going to try
a few things and hopefully we’ll be fast enough to be up front.”
• On several World of Outlaws rising stars racing at Eldora for the
first time: “I don’t think there’s anything you can tell anybody about
racing at Eldora. It’s big and the experience there sometimes pays off.
Obviously, some of the best drivers at that place have been around the
longest. We haven’t been as good as we want to be. We’ve won there in
the past, but times have changed since that happened. We’re excited to
get there and hopefully we can get everything in our program good
enough to where we can be contending for a win.”

Brooke Tatnell, driver of the No. 8 Garlic Jim’s Pizza/Castrol Eagle
• On racing at Eldora: “I love the place. It’s probably one of the
fastest tracks you go to and it’s probably the racetrack that hurts you
more than anywhere else. We haven’t had a good run there in a long
time, but we’ve been fast until something happens. I’ve had a couple of
pretty big wrecks there and have had some other things go wrong that
kept us out of good finishes. It’s just a wicked place. It’s a place
where you sit down, hang on, don’t turn the steering wheel and make
sure you say a good prayer before you get strapped in.”
