season with yet another win at Toledo Speedway.
Buescher, who has won three of the last four
races at Toledo, won the rain-delayed Federated Car Care 200 leading 53
of 206 race laps. It was also his third win in the last four ARCA Series
events.
The season-ending race at Toledo Speedway
attracted 42 drivers to battle it out on the 1/2-mile track.

the race with a top time of 16.080 seconds (111.940 mph). Ty Dillon was second
followed by Grant Enfinger, Chris Buescher and Chrissy Wallace. More

CHRIS BUESCHER WINS 2011 HOOSIER TIRE
SUPERSPEEDWAY CHALLENGE
KANSAS
CITY, KS (October 7, 2011) -- Chris Buescher came into Friday's Kansas
Lottery 98.9 race at Kansas Speedway in a dead heat with Ty Dillon in the
Hoosier Tire Superspeedway Challenge.
When it was all over, the
18-year-old driver had captured the coveted award as the highest finisher in
the 7-race challenge on paved mile (or longer) tracks on the ARCA Series
schedule.
Dillon looked to be well on his
way to winning the award after leading 76 of the first 81 laps in the final
challenge race at Kansas before disaster struck when he came in contact with a
lapped car.
The contact would result in a
disappointing seventh place finish for the 2011 ARCA Series champion. Buescher
would take advantage of the misfortune and finish second to give him a 25-point
win over Dillon. More

to that point and looked to be on his way to his eighth win of the season
before disaster struck. More

HOOSIERS!
KALAMAZOO,
MI (September 17, 2011) -- Andy Bozell set a new 3/8-mile world record Saturday
posting a lap of 10.020 seconds on Hoosier racing tires. (Watch
Video)
The 12-time Kalamazoo Speedway
track champion broke his own record time of 10.038 seconds set last year.
The surprising part wasn't that
Bozell set the new record, it was that he did so on 10" wide tires. The
previous record time was set using a 17" wide right rear tire. More

TY DILLON WINS AGAIN!
LONG
POND, PA (August 7, 2011) -- Even Mother Nature couldn't keep Ty Dillon from
winning his seventh ARCA Racing Series victory of the season at Pocono Raceway
on Sunday.

ARCA 125 from its Saturday afternoon scheduled start to early Sunday
morning. But that didn't dampen the efforts of 19-year-old Ty
Dillon.

route to capturing his third win in a row. More

TY DILLON WINS HIS 6TH ARCA RACE OF THE SEASON!
INDIANAPOLIS,
IN (July 28, 2011) -- It was more than a quarter century ago (1985)
since the ARCA Racing Series last competed at Lucas Oil
Raceway--formerly known as Indianapolis Raceway Park.
In fact, it was so long ago that
Thursday's Ansell Protective Gloves 200 race turned out to be a
duel between a pair of teenage drivers who weren't even born the last
time the series raced at the "other" famous Indy
track.
The series' return to
Indianapolis had 19-year-old Ty Dillon battling 17-year-old Ryan
Blaney for 200 laps and then adding to the excitement, the race was
extended three more laps due to a late-race caution. More
