Winchester, IN (April 28, 2008) –
Scott Hantz, Carl Muffley and Bill Charles all came away with CRA victories on Sunday afternoon on the High Banks of Winchester Speedway in the rescheduled season opener for all three series that was originally scheduled for last Sunday, but was postponed by a week because of rain. A large crowd came back out to see the event, which included the USAC Sprint Car Series in the Rich Vogler Classic. The CRA Super Series finally got their season opening event in after weather had postponed their first three scheduled events of 2008. Click Here.

S.E.A.L. to Help Cut Cost and Police Sealed Engines in Super Late Model World
Several Racing Series Team Up With Sealed Engine Alliance Leaders
How would you like to have a competitive Super Late Model on some of the best tracks in the
country with an engine that costs half of what others do? It's quickly becoming a reality. Several industry leaders announced today the formation of the Sealed Engine Alliance Leaders. S.E.A.L, as it will be known, has been spearheaded by race promoter R.J. Scott and is made up of several entities including the engine producers, McGunegill Engine Performance, Hamner Racing Engines and other racing series. The Sealed Engine Alliance Leaders is an effort to keep Super Late Model racing around with a lower cost alternative to the traditional 9:1 or steel head motors. Click Here.
