AMES, HAUDENSCHILD, WOLFGANG’S, SMITH, CARSON, LASOSKI &
TROSTLE TO SIGN AUTOGRAPHS IN BOB’S GARAGE IN MUSEUM NEXT WEEK
KNOXVILLE, IOWA (August 5, 2011) - Following last year’s 50th
Goodyear Knoxville Nationals, it only seems appropriate that three of
the next generation of sprint car racers will appear in the “Sixty
Minutes in the Trostle Garage with…“ autograph sessions next week in the
National Sprint Car Museum as the sport’s biggest event begins its next
fifty years. Ohio ‘young guns’ Zach Ames and Sheldon Haudenschild, son
of National Sprint Car Hall of Fame inductee Jac Haudenschild, have
agreed to open up the series of meet-and-greet sessions in the museum on
Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. And, later that afternoon at 3:30 p.m.,
up-and-comer Robby Wolfgang will sign autographs with 1977 Knoxville
Nationals winners Doug Wolfgang (driver) and Bob Trostle (car owner).
In addition to Wolfgang on Wednesday, Trostle will host Danny Smith and
Shane Carson in his re-created garage on Thursday afternoon at 3:30
p.m. And Bob Trostle will host Danny Lasoski at 3:30 p.m. on Friday
afternoon. Wolfgang, Trostle, Lasoski and Carson are all inductees into
the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame. Museum curator Tom Schmeh said
today, “I really appreciate the willingness of young sprint car drivers
like Zach Ames, Sheldon Haudenschild and Robby Wolfgang to come in and
sign autographs in the museum. This generation of ‘Facebook kids’
really is the future of our sport, so it is exciting to see them get out
and make the face-to-face connection with fans. And, it is great to see
the veterans like Bob Trostle, Doug Wolfgang, Shane Carson, Danny
Lasoski and Danny Smith do the same thing. I think this on-going
fan-friendliness by the teams really bodes well for the future of the
sport of sprint car racing.”
The schedule for the “Sixty Minutes in the Trostle Garage with…”
autograph sessions will be released early next week. Fans are
