Watertown, Conn.—Nov. 16, 2012 — David Gravel has really put his name on the sprint car racing map over the last few years, including scoring his first career World of Outlaws win in 2011, as well as claiming the Ohio Sprint Speedweek title in 2010. The 20-year-old built on all of that success in 2012 as he had a breakout season, qualifying for both the Knoxville Nationals and the National Open for the first time in his career, as well as setting fast time with the UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions seven times, the World of Outlaws on five occasions and finishing third in points with the All Stars, winning with the series in Canada.
 
“It was the most consistent year we’ve had and you can’t complain about that,” said Gravel. “The year seemed to go by a lot smoother, because of how consistent we were. We didn’t tear much stuff up here and had a lot of strong runs. I wish we could have won a few more races, but all in all, it was a pretty good year. I’m proud of what we were able to accomplish and the team we have in place.” Read more »

He was able to achieve this in one of the two rounds of time trials during Kellogg’s Qualifying Night for the Sixth Annual PEAK Motor Oil World Finals Presented by NAPA Auto Parts at The Dirt Track at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
 
Gravel, who was sporting a special pink Beyond Boobs paint scheme to promote breast cancer awareness, earned his fifth fast time award of the season with the World of Outlaws during the second round of time trials on Thursday, Nov. 1. The native of Watertown, Conn., was the last driver to hit the track and turned a lap of 13.026-seconds to pace the 50 drivers that were entered for the event. Read more »
