World of Outlaws World Finals presented by Can-Am wraps up the 2018 season
CARLISLE, PA. – October 29, 2018 – After rain canceled one night of racing and delayed another, Mother Nature finally allowed the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series to run the Tuscarora 50 at Port Royal (Pa.) Speedway. David Gravel and the CJB Motorsports team took to the fast-half-mile with $51,000 on the line. The GoMuddy.com, Big Game Treestands, J.R.C. Transportation, Nyce, Crete and Landis Block and Concrete #5 car timed in 13th, finished 3rd in his heat race and started the feature event in 17th.
“We missed the invert by one spot in time trials,” Gravel said. “Instead of being on the pole for the heat race, we hard to towards the back. The track was really fast in the heats and luckily, we made up a few spots. A few guys fell out. Later on, during the feature, we were really good early on. The track was still really fast, and we just made our way up through the field as the race wore on.”
Fresh off the top-5, the team will wrap up their season at the World of Outlaws World Finals presented by Can-Am at the Dirt Track at Charlotte in North Carolina. The event, which begins with a qualifying on Thursday, November 1st before two full features take place on Friday and Saturday nights. Gravel and the team have experienced success at the track, including a victory in the Saturday night event in 2017
“The atmosphere is awesome,” Gravel said of the event. “All the weight feels like it is gone from your shoulders. You get to go to the banquet the next day and have fun with all of the people from the sprint car community. Fans come in from all over the country for it. It’s a great facility, great racing and you really couldn’t ask for a better way to end the season. This is my last race in the #5 car. I want to go out with a win.”
