FIVE 2012 CHAMPIONS AMONG ENTRIES FOR INDOOR AUTO RACING SERIES RACES; BALTIMORE INAUGURAL SET FOR THIS SATURDAY

The list of Threee Quarter (TQ) Midget drivers entered for the first race of the three event Fatheadz Indoor Racing Series - in 1st Mariner Center in Baltimore, Md., December 8 - is best characterized in two
ways - quality and quantity.

Among the nearly sixty competitors are a quintet who earned circuit or
track championships in 2012.

Tim Buckwalter of Pottstown, Pa., the recently crowned 2012 American Racing Drivers Club (ARDC) Midget driving champion, is looking for his first win Indoors.

Ted Christopher of Plainville, Ct., a five time winner Indoors between
Atlantic City and Providence, is the 2012 Stafford (CT) Motor
Speedway track king.

Mike Lichty, a one-time winner indoors, and one of two Canadian
drivers entered in the Fatheadz three race series, won his first ISMA
Supermodified driving championship in 2012.

Anthony Sesely, Matawan, N.J., will be seeking his first TQ Midget win
after earning the 2012 Wall Stadium Modified track championship for
the second consecutive year.

And Ryan Tidman of Levittown, Pa. will be a contender in the Indoor
races after having won the 2012 ATQMRA Three Quarter Midget outdoor
championship for the second straight year.

The 1st Mariner Center race is the first of a three indoor auto racing
event series produced by Len Sammons Motorsports Productions.

The newly named Fatheadz Series’ second event is logged in for
Dunkin’ Donuts Center in Providence, R.I., on December 31 and the
two-race weekend finale is scheduled for February 1-2, 2013 in
Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall.

Entries have been coming in at a steady rate for the Baltimore,
Providence and Atlantic City in the Champ Kart support division as
well. Atlantic City’s schedule of events includes two other class, a
600 Micro Sprint class and the Slingshots.

The addition of the Baltimore race this year to the previous events in
Providence and Atlantic City provides TQ drivers and Champ Kart racers
with major events in three destination cities.

Registration forms, technical rules and race procedures for all three
events is available on line at www.aarn.com or by calling 609-888-3618.

Series sponsor Fatheadz is synonymous in the Midwest with open wheel
racing by marketing heavily in the Sprint car and Midget ranks since
its founding and sponsors other forms of motorsports throughout the
country.

Collectively, the racing talent in the TQ Midget field has won an
estimated 700 feature races and fifty track or circuit championships.

The 1st Mariner Center is near the very popular Camden Yards and is in
the middle of Baltimore’s trendy Inner Harbor area, a tourist mecca
with dozens of shops, restaurants and attractions.

The Providence race in Dunkin’ Donuts Center is the fifth Indoor race
at that venue promoted by Sammons. The December 31 scheduling - on
New Years Eve - has provided race teams and their followers with a
rare opportunity to compete against one another, then party the night
away and herald the coming of the new year.

The Clarion Inn in Seekonk, Mass. will serve as the host hotel for the
Providence Indoor race.

A gala post-race New Years’ Eve Party has been planned at the Clarion
after the races have been completed.

The 2013 running at Boardwalk Hall will be the eleventh event under
Len Sammons Motorsports Productions. Racing indoors in Boardwalk Hall
took place for the first time in 1938.

Associate sponsorships are being sought for the three race series.

Advertising is also available in the three event programs.
