Tulsa, Okla., Jan. 14---Joe Loyet of Loyet Motorsports has released Danny Lasoski from his driving duties at the 2010 Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Midget Nationals, effective Thursday morning.
This decision comes as a response to the financial situation stemming from the Bull Ring Midget Nationals at Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Mo. Lasoski and Scott Pennington were co-promoters of the December 18-19 event. Competitors have yet to receive the purse payout for Saturday Night’s events.
“Loyet Motorsports feels they have an obligation to show support to the other owners and drivers who participated in that event. “We hold no ill-will to Danny, but felt that it was best for both parties to go their separate ways at this time” said Loyet.
Lasoski competed in Tuesday night’s event for the team. There will be no replacement driver for the event.

A man is about as big as the things that make him angry.
There is more to this than meets the eye. If you look at the posts on http://karting.4cycle.com/showthread.php?t=294179 you will see that Lasoski had nothing to do with the money part of the event and the person responsible has admitted fault.
As far as Lasoski finding another ride....Hard to say, but if I had a car sitting, I'd put him in it. He's come real close to winning it on several occasions and he's never been tough on equipment.
