Red-Hot Billy Moyer Has Shot At World of Outlaws Late Model Series Consecutive Win Record During Upcoming East Coast Swing

$10,000-To-Win Tour Shows At Virginia Motor Speedway On April 11 & Lernerville Speedway On April 15 Precede Big Circle K Colossal 100 On April 18-19

CONCORD, NC - April 7, 2008 - Billy Moyer has a chance to make World of Outlaws Late Model Series history when the tour begins a three-race East Coast swing this Friday night (April 11) at Virginia Motor Speedway.

The hottest dirt Late Model driver in the nation is riding a three-race WoO LMS winning streak, giving him a shot at tying Rick Eckert's modern-era (2004-present) tour record of four consecutive victories in Friday night's 50-lap 'Rumble on the River IV' event at the pristine half-mile VMS oval owned by Bill Sawyer.

A $10,000 triumph at VMS would set Moyer up to gain sole possession of the consecutive-win standard on Tues., April 15, at Lernerville Speedway in Sarver, Pa., which hosts the 50-lap 'Showdown in Sarvertown' that offers another 10-grand top prize.

Of course, Moyer, 50, of Batesville, Ark., is a veteran of more than three decades behind the wheel, so he knows that he's best served enjoying his three straight wins rather than talking about the possibility of four - or more - in a row.

"We're just riding it out," Moyer said of his streak, which includes nine overall dirt Late Model wins to date. "You just never know what tomorrow is gonna bring in this sport.

"For sure, we're not gonna continue to win every race. I hope we can, but I know everything is just going our way right now."

Calling himself "rejuvenated" running new Victory Circle M1 Chassis cars that he helped design, Moyer has strung together WoO LMS wins in the Alltel DIRTcar Nationals finale on Feb. 16 at Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville, Fla.; the 'March Through Dixie 100' on March 29 at Pike County Speedway in Magnolia, Miss.; and the inaugural 'Illini 100' on April 5 at Farmer City (Ill.) Raceway. His only loss in four tour events this season was a third-place finish in the opener on Feb. 14 at Volusia, leaving him in the points lead with $53,450 in earnings.

Though he hasn't committed to following the 2008 WoO LMS in pursuit of a fourth career points title, Moyer has plans to come east for Virginia Motor, Lernerville and the $50,000-to-win Circle K Colossal 100 on April 18-19 at The Dirt Track @ Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C.

Moyer might have to make some creative travel arrangements for himself, however, because his father, Billy Moyer Sr., is scheduled to undergo a medical procedure on his heart this Wednesday in Iowa. Moyer plans to travel to his native Hawkeye State to be with his father, who attended Saturday night's 'Illini 100' at Farmer City. It's possible that doctors could determine the elder Moyer needs more serious heart surgery such as a bypass, so Moyer is uncertain whether he'll drive east with his team or have to fly in to meet them at VMS.

The WoO LMS modern-era consecutive win record of four in a row that Moyer is chasing was established in 2006 by York, Pa.'s Eckert. In late-May and June Eckert rolled to successive victories at North Central Speedway in Brainerd, Minn., Deer Creek Speedway in Spring Valley, Minn., Western Kentucky Speedway in Nebo, Ky., and East Alabama Motor Speedway in Phenix City, Ala.

Demonstrating the degree of difficulty associated with stringing together consecutive wins on the ultra-competitive WoO LMS, Moyer is only the fourth driver who has registered three straight triumphs since 2004. He joins Eckert, defending WoO LMS champion Steve Francis of Ashland, Ky. (the first to win three in a row, in 2005) and 2006 WoO LMS titlist Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y. (2005).

During the 2007 season, the longest winning streak was two races, accomplished three times - by Shannon Babb of Moweaqua, Ill., Chub Frank of Bear Lake, Pa., and Josh Richards of Shinnston, W.Va.

Moyer does hold the alltime WoO LMS consecutive-win record when the 1988 and 1989 seasons, which were overseen by late Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Series founder Ted Johnson, are included. The legendary driver known as 'Mr. Smooth' won five straight tour races in both '88 and '89.

Virginia Motor is a track that remains on Moyer's Victory Lane hit-list. He owns a record 34 career WoO LMS wins (12 since 2004), but he's come up empty in three previous visits to the track in Jamaica, Va.

Moyer's best VMS run with the Outlaws came in 2006, when he finished third. He was 11th in the 2005 event and a dismal 21st in the April 2007 show, which saw him use a provisional to start the A-Main after a heat-race accident.

The four-tenths-mile Lernerville oval has treated Moyer a bit better. He has one WoO LMS victory there, on April 29, 2005.

On-track activities are scheduled to begin this Friday night at 7 o'clock at Virginia Motor Speedway, which is located on U.S. Route 17 just a short drive from the Richmond, Fredericksburg, Southern Maryland and Hampton Roads areas.
