USCS vs. URC North South Shootout "Spring Speed Xplosion"
Winged Outlaw Sprint Car Headlines Racing Action At
Lancaster Speedway On Saturday, April 12th.
Atlanta, GA - April 7, 2014 - The United Sprint Car
Series presented by K&N Filters (www.uscsracing.com)
returns to the red dirt 1/2 mile racing surface at
Lancaster Speedway in Lancaster, South Carolina for the
first time in three years to contest a full night of
racing action this Saturday night during the USCS vs.
URC North vs. South Shootout “Spring Speed Xplosion”
Round #2. The event for winged sprint cars also includes
the co-sanctioned North vs. South Shootout challenge
race between the Georgia based United Sprint Car Series
(USCS) presented by K&N Filters and the Delaware based
Rislone United Racing Company (URC) sprint car
organization (www.urcsprints.com).
The USCS is in its eighteenth season of competition and
the URC, as the oldest sprint car sanction in the
country, has contested sixty-six plus seasons of
competition. The two-night weekend kicks off on Friday
night at Carolina Speedway with Round #1 of the battle
for pride and glory and nearly $30,000 in prize money.
The co-sanctioned event promises to be loaded with an
action-packed sprint car racing program with some of the
country’s top ranked drivers racing for their series in
this first time ever spring version of the USCS vs. URC
North vs. South Shootout sprint car challenge events at
Carolina Speedway. Saturday night’s racing action
features a full program of USCS and URC winged outlaw
style sprint car racing plus racing in six of Lancaster
Speedway’s most popular weekly racing divisions. In
addition to the 130+ mile per hour winged sprint cars,
the action packed racing card features the speedway’s
SECA Late Models, Pro Street, Crate Sportsman, Super
Street, Xtreme Four and Vintage divisions.
The USCS Outlaw Thunder Tour and URC winged sprint cars
will contest a full racing program including their
Hoosier Speed Dash, Qualifying Heat races and Main
Events on Friday. All the other divisions will also
contest a full program of qualifying races and main
events. The Lancaster Speedway weekly racing series SECA
Late Models are racing for $1000 to win.
The Lancaster Speedway USCS Vs. URC event is expected to
bring top winged outlaw sprint car drivers from at least
seven states to the track from as far away as New York,
Florida and Arkansas. The exotic fire breathing, alcohol
burning, 700 horsepower open-wheeled USCS sprint cars
weight just 1,300 pounds, and are pound for pound the
World’s most powerful short track race cars. The cars
will literally fly around the track surface at speeds
well over 130 M.P.H. It is not uncommon to see the USCS
sprint cars popping "wheelies" or doing wheel stands
because of the brute force of their engines and their
huge 17-inch wide rear tires.
Expected entries for both nights include at least four
previous multi-time USCS Lancaster Speedway and Carolina
Speedway USCS sprint car winners including 10-time
National USCS National Champion Terry Gray, from
Bartlett, Tennessee. Gray won on both of the USCS series
two previous visits to Lancaster Speedway The former
Southern Thunder regional series Champion Johnny Bridges
from Cherryville, North Carolina who won USCS event at
Carolina Speedway on September 28, 2012. Also entered
are two past Carolina Speedway sprint car winners, Eric
Riggins, Jr. from Charlotte, North Carolina and female
sprint car hot-shoe, Morgan Turpen from Cordova,
Tennessee who both won their half of twin main events at
Carolina Speedway in September of 2011.
The eighteen year-old Eric Riggins, Jr. won on both
visits that the United Sprint Car Series had to Carolina
Speedway in 2013, He won the first USCS sanctioned event
on April 12th. He then repeated as the winner on October
4th during the 2013 USCS vs. URC North vs. South Sprint
Car Shootout that was co-sanctioned by both the Georgia
based USCS and the country’s oldest sprint car
organization, the Delaware based URC then in its 66th
year. Riggins bested a 32 car field that included some
of the Nation’s best sprint car drivers.

2012 series Champion, Robbie Stillwagon from Burlington,
New Jersey and 2013 URC Championship runner-up Josh
