Adding to the list of Americans already nominated is four time and defending All-Star Circuit of Champions title holder Dale Blaney whom will campaign the ultra competitive David Doherty owned N6 entry.

Blaney comes to Australia on the back of another outstanding American season, during which the 1998 World of Outlaws Rookie and 2000 Kings Royal Winner took his career All-Star Circuit of Champions A feature victory tally to 99, becoming the most successful driver in the history of the All-Stars.

NEW CASTLE, IN | Dec. 3, 2013 - Only one driver finished among the top-six in points with each of the USAC National series in 2013. In addition, just one driver was victorious in a Silver Crown car, Midget and Sprint Car in USAC National competition this season. That driver... Tracy Hines.

The veteran driver scored wins with the Traxxas USAC Silver Crown Series, Amsoil USAC National Sprint Car Series and the Honda USAC National Midget Series Pavement Championship. In points, Hines was the runner-up in the Honda USAC National Midget Series Pavement Championship, third in the Traxxas USAC Silver Crown Series, fourth in the Honda USAC National Midget Series Dirt Championship and sixth in the final tally for the Amsoil USAC National Sprint Car Series.

BREAKING NEWS!:: POWRi Midgets’ Battle at the Center CANCELLED by BAD WEATHER

DU QUOIN, Ill. | Dec. 5, 2013 - The POWRi Lucas Oil National Midget Series has been forced to cancel Saturday’s fourth annual Great Clips Battle at the Center presented by K & N Filters by a severe winter storm the National Weather Service predicts will drop freezing rain, sleet and three-to-seven inches of snow at the Southern Illinois Center and the surrounding areas in the two days leading up to the event.

The NWS forecast calls for freezing rain and sleet on Thursday during daylight hours preceding a 100 percent chance of tonight and Friday.

The indoor event on the Mini Magic Mile at the Du Quoin State Fairgrounds had attracted an all-star field of midget drivers including Bryan Clauson, Chris Bell, Andrew Felker, Brad Kuhn, Jerry Coons Jr. Darren Hagen and Danny Stratton.

“It’s really unfortunate we have to cancel the Battle at the Center,” POWRi co-founder Kenny Brown said. “We had a great group of drivers and it would have been a tremendous event. With the ice and snow, it would have been difficult for the fans, competitors and officials to get to Du Quoin and there is a realistic possibility of the ice knocking out the electricity at the event. We’re very disappointed, but it was not possible for the event to go on Saturday. We tried to find a replacement date, but there wasn't anything available in the next couple of weeks and then we run into Christmas. We thank the teams that entered and we’ll be returning their entry fees.”
