TULSA, Okla. (February 4, 2015) The American Sprint Car Series’ 24th year of promoting dirt track races will be the eighth year of competition for Tony Bruce, Jr with the Oklahoma based series.

Picking up three Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by MAVTV American Real feature wins in 2014, the Liberal, Kansas driver was pleased with the overall setup of his Team One8 program, but not the performance of a seventh place finish in the overall point standings.

“I think I crashed more last year than I’ve crashed in my entire career,” said Bruce.

Asked about difference in his program from 2014 to 2015, Bruce replied, “We didn’t really change anything on the car. The only thing we had a problem with was finishing races, especially when we were running up front so hopefully that changes. We’ll see what happens. The goal really is to just be competitive every night. Like I said, last year I felt like we had a great car night in and night out, but we just seemed to find ourselves on the back of a Wrecker. “

With Moss Engines under the bonnet of the Oil Medics / Lubbock Wrecker No. 18 again in 2015, Bruce will also keep his mixture of Ford and Chevrolet power plants in play with track size serving as a primary variable on which sees action.

Once again taking on the part of racer and promoter, Bruce elaborated on his events for 2015.

“The Rock N’ Roll 50, Eagle Nationals, and Kansas City Classic with Scott Traylor at Racinboys.com will be our marquee events this season. The Rock N’ Roll 50 has always been a great event for us and so has the Eagle Nationals.”

Since earning the title of “Brodix Rookie of the Year” in 2005, Tony Bruce, Jr. has amassed 13 Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour feature wins in 280 starts with 73 top-fives’ and 156 top-ten finishes. Bruce has also earned 16 ASCS Regional victories.
