MOYER BATTLING FOR THIRD WORLD OF OUTLAWS’ CROWN
BATESVILLE, AR (October 25, 2005) – Billy Moyer and the #21 Banner Valley
Hauling/Petroff Towing/J&J Steel/McCarthy’s One Hour Rayburn team has impressed
with a strong season that includes ten feature wins to date but “Mr. Smooth” is
still focused on the remaining task at hand – the hotly-contested World of
Outlaws’ Late Model Series Championship. The legendary driver who has a renowned
“outlaw” style and has traditionally eluded point racing in preference of the
independent trail currently holds a slim ten point lead over fellow contracted
“Dirty Dozen” member Steve Francis in the 2005 title hunt.
Moyer collected two consecutive World of Outlaws’ titles in 1988 and 1989 before
DIRT Motorsports resurrected the series in 2004. He is seeking his third WoO
title while Francis is in search of his first WoO championship. Half of the #21
team’s ten victories in 2005 came under the WoO banner. Going into this
weekend’s series’ finale at Volusia Raceway Park, Francis also has five wins on
the WoO trail and both drivers visited YJ Stinger™ Victory Lane at the Florida
speedplant when the tour stopped for February Speedweeks. The stage is set for
an awesome showdown where winner takes all at the October 30th Championship
Banquet in Daytona Beach, FL.
“We’re in the final stretch now and it’s come down to the wire,” commented
Moyer. “We started in Florida back in February and had solid performances so
hopefully luck doesn’t fail us now. The team has worked hard to be up front all
year long and we had our share of trouble but we put ourselves in a good
position going into the finale. We’ve had a good season but coming home with
that championship would make it complete but that’s what we’re all gunning
after. Two more wins first and then that title. So we all have the same agenda,
I just hope we get there first.”
Moyer, Francis and the rest of the “Dirty Dozen” will converge at Georgia’s
Golden Isles Speedway on Wednesday, October 26th, for the “Lloyd’s Land Clearing
50” before trekking back to Florida for the inaugural “Gator 100” two-day series
finale this weekend at Volusia. Event information for the “Lloyd’s Land Clearing
50” and the “Gator 100” is available online at
http://www.woolms.com and more information on “Mr. Smooth” and his
infamous #21 is available at
