CLIMB IN, HANG ON
OPEN-WHEEL CIRCLE TRACK — V8
Armed with the edgy new Mopar look, the Team Mopar sprints
and midgets contingent captured attention (and victories)
throughout 2003. Chief among them was J.J. Yeley, who set
the record for most USAC wins in a season, eclipsing the
previous record of 19 held by the legendary other initial-guy,
A.J. Foyt. Yeley captured the USAC National Sprint Car season
championship driving the No. 20 Mopar car owned by 2002
NASCAR Winston Cup Champion Tony Stewart, who held
ownership in several other Mopar USAC entries. Tracy Hines,
Jay Drake and Cory Kruseman also racked up numerous wins
and fast times using Stanton Racing Mopar power. Dave
Steele drove Mopar to victory in three USAC Midget events.
In the World of Outlaws, Danny “The Dude” Lasoski switched
to Paul Kistler-built Mopar power for 2003 and the results
were spectacular. Lasoski posted the Fast Time in qualifying
an astounding 28 times — more than three times as many as
the next in line (Steve Kinser had eight). And backed by that
reliable Mopar power and Tony Stewart Motorsports, he was
locked in a battle for first with Kinser throughout the entire
year as the two of them fought it out for WoO supremacy.
Daryn Pittman also figured into the WoO equation, thanks to
the Mopar power under his front wing; Pittman finished the
season fourth in points.
Mopar supplied the power for several additional
successful V8 dirt-trackers in 2003, and you
can choose some of the same parts
that took them to Victory Lane
in these pages.

Good things come in pairs.
