OCTOBER 9, 2011
The Iron Motorsports team and driver Jeep Van Wormer closed out their version of the 2011 season victoriously, as they claimed a big win in the annual 'UMP Nationals' at the famed Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio over the October 7-8 weekend! On Friday night, Jeep laid down the third fastest lap in his group during the qualifying session, which locked him into the outside of the front row for Saturday's heat race.

Jeep went on to win his heat race in preliminary action on Saturday to become the outside polesitter in the 40-lap 'UMP Nationals.' The Pinconning, Michigan ace was on the gas early in the race and grabbed the top spot immediately. Jeep then stayed out in front of the strong field from flag-to-flag en route to the popular $5,000 triumph over Frank Heckenast, Jr., Jason Feger, Kevin Cole, and Ryan Unzicker.

OCTOBER 6, 2011
After spending the past several weekends away from the racetrack, Jeep Van Wormer and the Iron Motorsports team will conclude their 2011 racing season this upcoming weekend (October 7-8) at the famed Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio. Jeep's last event was nearly a month ago when he finished a strong eighth in the $44,000 to win 'World 100' at the "Big E." The Pinconning, Michigan ace will be looking to put an exclamation mark on his '11 campaign in the annual running of the 'UMP Nationals' this weekend.

The two-day UMP DIRTcar Series showdown at Eldora will get started with Late Model qualifying on Friday night. Heat races, consolation events, and the 40-lap main event will then headline the weekend on Saturday evening. The winner of the 'UMP Nationals' will receive $5,000 for their efforts. Additional information concerning the final race of the season for the #55 team can be located online at www.eldoraspeedway.com.

"Hopefully, we go out with a bang this weekend at Eldora," exclaimed Jeep when speaking about his season finale. "We haven't raced a lot the last couple of months due to work commitments, but it would sure be sweet to end our year with a big win. Our car has been really good at Eldora in the big races this year and hopefully that continues during the UMP Nationals!"


SEPTEMBER 12, 2011
Jeep Van Wormer and the #55 Iron Motorsports team returned to action on September 9-10 at the famed Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio. The 41st Annual 'World 100' was held at the "Big E" over the weekend and a whopping $44,000 top prize was on the line. On Friday night, Jeep laid down the tenth fastest lap of the 112 entrants during the two-lap qualifying session.

When the action heated back up at the "Big E" on Saturday evening, Jeep ran second in his loaded heat race, which locked him into the outside of the fifth row in the 'World 100.' The Pinconning, Michigan native, who was aboard his special white/blue September 11, 2001 themed paint scheme that received the Best Appearing Car Award, was fast from the drop of the green flag. Jeep got up to the sixth spot during the 100-lapper and had his sights set on a strong top five finish. However, after a couple of mid-race restarts, his tires sealed over and never came fully back to life and Jeep slipped back to a solid eighth place finish.
