Coming off a very impressive win at Manzanita Speedway on Saturday night, owner Jon Kantor has ceased operations immediately leaving Chad Kemenah without a ride on the World of Outlaws tour. The shocking news came this morning as Jon Kantor informed Chad and the team on the developing situation. With the economy going through tough times right now there just is not enough money left over to keep the race team going. The entire racing operation is for sale. Anyone interested in buying please contact Chad Kemenah on his cell phone (419) 348-2222. Chad and the team want to thank Jon Kantor for providing them with the opportunity to run the World of Outlaws tour.

I know the economy is bad, but the outlaws have run just a handful of races. Did the owner's outside business go belly up all of a sudden? If he barely had enough money to get through 7 races, it seems odd to commit to Chad for a whole season.

It would be great if this were an April Fools joke, unfortunately it was announced on March 31st.
