Gobrecht Memorial Fund has Raised over $54,000

12-28-04 More than anything, Kevin Gobrecht wanted to be an Outlaw. From the time he started racing as an 8-year-old, Gobrecht dreamt of racing a sprint car with the World of Outlaws.

After years of success as a member of the Pennsylvania Posse and in a few short stints with several Outlaws teams, Gobrecht landed a full-time ride in 1999 driving for former champion Dave Blaney. Once he was settled, Gobrecht earned a victory at Eldora and had a solid showing at Knoxville. It was clear he had the skill and ability to become a star on the circuit.

But on a late September night at I-80 Speedway in Nebraska, Gobrecht died from injuries sustained in a crash. It left the sprint car world stunned.

In the days that followed, the Outlaws announced its honor to the top first-year driver would become the Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year Award. In addition, his family created the Kevin Gobrecht Memorial Fund.

The award in 2004 went to Kraig Kinser, but it is the fund that continues to best pay tribute to Gobrecht, who in addition to racing earned a degree in business and finance from Millersville University. To date, the organization has raised and distributed more than $54,000. And in a display of how popular Gobrecht was, his memorial merchandise has been requested worldwide.

“The rookie of the year award title keeps Kevin associated with the Outlaws, and that was one of his dreams,” said Donna Gobrecht, Kevin’s mother. “All he ever talked about was being a professional driver with the World of Outlaws. It means a lot that the Outlaws were willing to carry his name.”

The organization’s biggest fundraiser is an annual golf tournament near the end of September. In 2004, 140 golfers helped to generate a record-high $19,000, even after torrential rains forced the event to be relocated in a matter of hours.

The group uses those funds to award two scholarships and assist local and national charities.

“One scholarship is through the high school that goes to a senior going into higher education,” Donna Gobrecht said. “The second one is through the racetracks and is available to anyone. The only stipulation I put on that scholarship is that the winner attend Kevin’s memorial race at Lincoln Speedway for the presentation. This year, because of the proceeds from the golf tournament, we’ve actually been able to double the amount of the scholarship so we’re going to give two $2,000 scholarships this year.”

The rest of the money is donated to aid groups, such as Feed a Friend, or ones that assist injured drivers in the racing community.

“The purpose is to keep Kevin’s name alive,” Donna Gobrecht said. “We’ve never taken one cent for administration costs or anything. It’s all going back into the racing community, and that’s the purpose.”

Dirt Motorsports Buys MARS DLM Series

NORMAN, OK, December 17, 2004 / Business Wire / Boundless Motor Sports Racing, Inc., (OTCBB: BMSR) (Boundless) d/b/a DIRT MotorSports^TM, announced that it has purchased Mid-America Racing Series, (MARS), a regional late model sanctioning body based in Arkansas.  Established in 2000, more than 350 drivers have competed at twenty-four tracks in seven states during the series’ history.

The series was originally created by Batesville Speedway owner and promoter Mooney Starr in order to offer local late model drivers a regional late model series with competitive purses.  In 2004, with title sponsorship from the nationally recognized O’Reilly Auto Parts, the series schedule included 33 race nights and paid out $125,000 in points funds.

“The Mid-America Racing Series has a strong following throughout the Southern and Midwestern parts of the country,” said Paul A. Kruger, Chairman and CEO.  “The acquisition follows the objectives of our business plan in order to create a more unified late model national touring series that benefits the team owners, drivers, sponsors and promoters.”

Along with the recent acquisition of UMP and the Stacker 2^® Xtreme DirtCar Series, the MARS acquisition strengthens the Company’s position as the largest and most recognized sanctioning body for sprint, late model and modified dirt track racing in the United States.  In 2004, an estimated more than 3.5 million fans attended World of Outlaws^® and DIRT Series sanctioned events to watch the best drivers in the industry perform.  Management expects to be able to build upon the success of its 2004 season and anticipates significant attendance growth for 2005.

“It is very important to have strong regional support for our World of Outlaws Stacker 2 Late Model national tour and for MARS to assist us in achieving our goals,” said Bobby Hartslief, Boundless’ COO.

For the past twenty years UMP has been a major player within the late model and modified circuits. With more than 3,000 registered open wheel modified drivers, the Xtreme DirtCar Series’ sponsors include Stacker 2, The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company®, Gemini Auto Stores® and Lucas Oil®. The Xtreme DirtCar Series also has a television contract with SPEED Channel.

The UMP acquisition strengthens the Company’s position as the largest and most recognized sanctioning body for sprint, late model and modified dirt track racing in the United States. In 2004, an estimated more than 3.5 million fans attended World of Outlaws and DIRT Series sanctioned events to watch the best drivers in the industry perform. Management expects to be able to build upon the success of its 2004 season and anticipates significant attendance growth for 2005.

“As we’ve moved through the year we’ve been able to make strategic acquisitions that are consistent with the goals we established in our business plan,” said Paul A. Kruger, Boundless’ Chairman and CEO. “The UMP acquisition reflects our commitment to building a sanctioning organization which will take the sport of dirt track racing to a new level both in the United States and abroad.”

“The acquisition of UMP will help us to extend our base of DIRT’s weekly sanctioned tracks as we bring on board a large contingent of modified teams,” said Bobby Hartslief, Boundless’ COO. “However, most importantly, the acquisition unifies the late model series and brings with it marketing opportunities to better serve our fan base.”

Quotes Terry McCarl

“I want to thank God for a safe race. I thought Erin (Crocker) was going to pull it off again—she did a great job again tonight, and I was kind of hoping she’d win when I was running toward the back, but as I got closer and closer to the front I started to think that I might have a shot at it. I’ve run a lot of races on a lot of different type tracks, and I knew I had to try to run the bottom and save my tires as much as I could. Danny (Lasoski) kind of showed me something up higher there toward the end of the race, but again, you had to be really careful. I wish my wife and family could be here with me for this one, but I know they’re back home listening. These internet broadcasts are great. I have to thank all of my sponsors—Big Game Tree Stands, Country Builders: I wish the Offil family could have been here tonight. They were here last night when we sucked, but they’ve been with me for a long time. Bosma Poultry, Fast & Mueller, Fleet Buying Group. I don’t have a big corporate sponsor—we’re trying to put something together to run the full (World of Outlaws) season next year. Wesmar Engines—seems like when we run an engine that’s supposed to go back for a re-build, we win an Outlaw race. I have to thank Neil (Cowman) and the guys at Hoosier for building the best race tires in the world. Eagle Chassis, Weld Racing and Brodix, and everyone for coming out here tonight.”

Quotes

Erin Crocker

“My heart’s beating pretty fast and I’m out of breath.  This has been a long year, and we’ve been through some tough times, but Mike Woodring and my crew stuck with me.  This is a rookie team with a rookie driver, and after everything we’ve been though, this win means the world to me! I don’t know where (the winning move) it came from!  I have so many people to thank for this! Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is my university, and they’ve been my sponsor for three years, and without them this wouldn’t be possible.  We have so many great associate sponsors—Car Mate Trailers, and just so many people who have helped make it possible.  I’ll definitely be back to Tulare!”

Brazilian Formula 3 Star to Make WoO Debut at Vegas

(October 28, 2004) Former Formula 3 star, Brazilian Ricardo “Matchbox” Maurício will make his World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Series debut at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in Las Vegas, NV during the Series’ final season event on November 5th and 6th, 2004.  Maurício will drive a car owned by sprint car racer Doug Lippincott of Sparks, NV.  Veteran World of Outlaws crew chief Davey Whitworth will help the road-racing star make the transition from pavement to dirt, with ButlerBuilt Motorsports Equipment also lending support to the team.

Maurício hails from Brazil but hopes to race full-time in the United States. His decision to venture to the United States to join the World of Outlaws Sprint Series came after a conversation with former office teammates of retired Formula One star Nelson Piquet.  The former teammates happened to include Bobby Hartslief, Boundless Motor Sports Racing, COO; Brazilian promoter Carlos Lua Mauro and Ted Quackenbush of TQ & Associates who represents IRL driver Vitor Meira and Japanese Formula 3 driver J.P. Oliveira.

“I wanted to focus my career in the U.S. and the best available entrance gate for someone that has Stock Car racing in mind, I believe, is sprint car racing,” said Maurício. “I am excited to try dirt oval racing and at the same time ready to learn the tricks of the trade with these fast and experienced drivers. I hope to squeeze in, use some of my road course past and find a place here for many, many years.”

The nickname “Matchbox” originates from his diminutive stature, Maurício stands only 5’3”, and his reputation for having a “hot foot.”  The hard-charging style has worked well for the 25-year old native of São Paulo, Brazil.  In 2003, he won the Spanish Formula 3 Championship, claiming six wins and four pole positions in his Racing Engineering Toyota-Dallara.  Maurício also won the Brazilian Formula Ford Championship in 1996.

Maurício is currently racing with the Brazilian V8 Stock Car Series and serves as an Instructor at the Roberto Marazii Driving School at the legendary Interlagos Circuit in São Paulo as well as the Porsche Advanced Driving School, in São Paulo.

WoO Announces 2005 Rules Package

(October 26, 2004)  The World of Outlaws (WoO) Sprint Series released the 2005 edition of the WoO technical rules today.  The rules can now be downloaded from a link (“2005 Sprint Rules”) located at the bottom of the official WoO Sprint Series web site home page at www.theworldofoutlaws.com.   

“We worked with the World of Outlaws teams and with the tracks that run the World of Outlaws Sprint Series,” said Martin Willis, VP of Technical Operations.  “Our goal is a unified set of rules allowing any team to pull in and be ready to race.”

Over the 2004 season, the WoO held meetings with promoters, drivers and race team owners in an effort to release the rules to the racing community before the end of the WoO 2004 season. “This is the earliest the rules have ever been published,” said Willis.  “We wanted to help the race teams with their plans for 2005.”

Releasing the new rules is just one aspect of the sanctioning organization’s efforts for improvements in 2005.  “We are working on minor changes to the race and format procedures to create a better show,” said Craig Cormack, VP of Race Operations.  “A new membership structure will be in place to encourage more teams to be a part of the World of Outlaws organization.  There are still some details to hammer out, but we will have the entire system in place by January 1, 2005.”

Boundless to Become "DIRT Motorsports"

NORMAN, OK, -- Boundless Motor Sports Racing Inc., (OTCBB: BMSR) (Boundless) Chairman and CEO Paul A. Kruger announced that the Board of Directors has unanimously approved changing the Company’s name from “Boundless Motor Sports Racing, Inc.”, to “DIRT Motorsports, Inc.” During the meeting the Board also approved the reincorporation of the company to Delaware. The Company’s name change and reincorporation to Delaware will require shareholder approval in order to be effective.

“I’m very confident about the direction that we are taking with the Company,” said Kruger. “DIRT Motorsports is a recognized leader in the industry with an established reputation and loyal fan base built in part by the wide variety of broadcast programs produced by our in-house studios including ‘This Week on DIRT’, ‘Rush Hour on DIRT’, DIRTvision’s online race broadcasts and our new online talk-show ‘DIRT Doggs LIVE’. Changing the name to DIRT Motorsports more accurately reflects our position as the dominant name in dirt track racing.”

“The Company will continue to leverage and build upon its existing brands including the World of Outlaws Sprint Series, the World of Outlaws Late Model Series, and the DIRT Big Block Modified Series,” said Bobby Hartslief, Boundless Chief Operating Officer. “While the World of Outlaws Sprint Series and World of Outlaws Late Model Series are still the foundation of the Company, we believe the name change to DIRT Motorsports will foster an environment that will enable us to expand the reach and popularity of all our dirt track racing series throughout the United States.”

Once completed, www.dirtmotorsports.com will be the new official corporate web site address .

Quotes Danny Lasoski

"I thought I was pretty quick on the top when I got by (Tim) Kaeding, but then I saw the King sneaking up on the bottom side, and I got running really good down there in 3&4, and on the top in 1&2. I'm just glad to see all these people out here in the stands-it's been a long time since we've been to Wichita. I have to thank my car owner Tony Stewart for giving me everything I need to run this deal, JD Byrider, Home Depot, and Mopar have been great for us, and next year we have the big mouth bass-Bass Pro Shops coming on board. Kistler Engines, Eagle Chassis, and Hoosier Tires do the job for us, and I really have to thank my guys. I've got the best crew chief in the business with Jimmy Carr, and Todd Splain and Mike Kuemper. We've been struggling here the last month, but these guys never gave up on me, and I'm really proud of that."

Quotes Tim Kaeding

"This is a great night for the Beefpackers team. We were just kind of out cruising and waiting for things to happen. Donny (Schatz) got held up in some traffic, and I just pulled it down to the bottom and hoped it would stick. I think the right rear tire started to come in later in the race. I could hear someone coming behind me that last lap, but I didn't know who it was. I just have to thank Dennis and Theresa Roth for giving me a great ride. Next year is going to be pretty exciting!"

Quotes Steve Kinser

"We've always run good here-I don't really know why. We've run good ever since we started racing here in the late `70s. I've always enjoyed running here, but I don't know. . .we need to get these ski jumps (banking for the quarter-mile inner oval) off the frontstretch. You have to try to time the lapped cars so that you catch them coming out ofthe corners, then you can make a move on them. Starting on the outside was the place to be here. With the gear that we have to run you get a little bogged down on the inside, plus it was a little slick down there tonight, so it worked out well that we got the outside front row. We just have to keep running well, and not get injured or anything like that. Scott Gerkin, and the guys on both of these teams do a great job. We started out the year to win another championship, so we just have to keep it going."

Quotes Tim Kaeding

"Man, this is cool! My little brother (Bud) runs the non-wing cars here, and he told me it would get right up by the fence, so we just got up and let it run. I have to thank HR Cattle, Dennis and Theresa Roth-they've given me a great opportunity, and we're getting ready to run full time with these guys. This might make up for some of the tough luck we've had the last couple of weeks. Donny (Schatz) and Steve (Kinser) were fast all night long, and we were just kind of back there cruising around. I saw them both go to the bottom, and I thought `I think there's enough room up there to squeeze by them', so I just made the move and figured we'd either crash or have the lead. I saw Sammy (Swindell) there on the last lap, and I just tried to keep a lapped car in between us. It probably would have gotten ugly coming out of (turn) four-we both probably would have crashed. I'm just happy to get this win. . .it's time for a beer, now!"
