After spending a couple of weeks with Roth Motorsports on the World of Outlaw trail, Kyle Hirst has decided to head back to his native California and continue his 2015 racing season. With that, Roth Motorsports has hired Elk River, MN driver, Craig Dollansky, to pilot their car this weekend at the Eldora Speedway.
“I really have to thank Dennis and Teresa Roth for giving me such a great opportunity, unfortunately after a few weeks, I have decided that I am happier racing in California,” Kyle Hirst said. “It looks like I will be able to drive for Roth Motorsports and a few other people back home, so I think this will truly work out for everyone.”
With Hirst heading home to pilot the No. 83jr machine next weekend in Tulare, CA, Roth Motorsports has made the decision to put Craig Dollansky in their machine starting this weekend at the Eldora Speedway.
Dollansky is no stranger to the famous Eldora Speedway as he has 4 career wins to his credit as he also sits 10th on the all time World of Outlaws feature event wins list with 59 wins to his credit.
“First off, we really admire Kyle Hirst’s honesty, and respect his decision,” Dennis Roth said. “We look forward to continuing our relationship with him in California. We are very pleased to have Craig Dollansky in our car this weekend, and look forward to watching him work with our team and represent us.”
A seasoned veteran, Dollansky looks forward to the chance to compete for the legendary Roth Motorsports team as he makes his debut at legendary Eldora Speedway on Friday night.
“It’s an honor to drive for Dennis and Teresa Roth,” Dollansky said. “They have fielded first class race teams for a lot of years, and I have a lot of respect for them, and the entire Roth Motorsports organization. I have a very strong desire to race and win, and Dennis and Teresa Roth have a solid team in place for me to work with. I am very eager to get back to racing, and am thankful for the opportunity.”
The Roth Motorsports team would like to thank Roth Enterprises, HR Livestock Transportation, 3H Cattle, Mobil1, FK Rod Ends, Weld Wheels, Brown and Miller Racing Solutions, Kent Performance, Kaeding Performance, and Astro Titanium for their support in 2015.
