The winners and their guests will attend a major league baseball game, watch the inaugural Federated Auto Parts World of Outlaws “Ironman 55” race at the Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway and have their own personal dirt track driving experience at that same track, all in the span of 48 hours.

“We want to congratulate the winners of the ‘Dream Weekend’ contest and also want to thank them for being loyal Federated customers,” says Phil Moore, senior vice president for Federated. “The ‘Dream Weekend’ is one of the most unique promotions we have ever conducted and we know it will be a tremendous experience for our winners and their guests.”

Five Federated Car Care Center members were chosen as winners and will be accompanied on the trip by their respective Federated member representative. The Federated Car Care Center members who will attend the Federated Ironman 55 Dream Weekend are:

  • Dave Christopher — Christopher’s Car Care, Tallmadge, Ohio
  • Howard Fulton — Cassel’s Garage, Melbourne, Fla.
  • Brad Heimbach — Brad’s Motor Market Place, Lafayette, Ind.
  • Rodney Gisler — Performance Plus, Three Rivers, Texas
  • Troy Stariha — Kalama Auto Supply & Repair, Kalama, Wash.

The weekend will begin on Friday, Aug. 3, with a major league baseball game featuring the world champion St. Louis Cardinals hosting their arch rivals, the Milwaukee Brewers, at beautiful Busch Stadium in downtown St. Louis.

On Saturday, Aug. 4, the dream weekend will continue with four dirt track races at the newly named Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway in Pevely, Mo. In addition to watching the Federated dirt track car driven by Federated spokesperson Ken Schrader in action, the winners will also get to see the first-ever Federated Auto Parts World of Outlaws “Ironman 55,” the most challenging and grueling race on the World of Outlaws circuit.

The dream weekend will conclude on Sunday, Aug. 5 back at the raceway with a dirt track driving experience taught by instructor Schrader. The winners will get behind the wheel of one of Schrader’s dirt cars and will learn the dirt track racing ropes from the dirt track master.
