Watertown, Conn.—August 23, 2012 — Ever since the door closed on the DDR Motorsports hauler on May 12, at Mercer Raceway Park in Pennsylvania, David Gravel has been anticipating his return to the semi-banked three-eighths-mile in Western Pennsylvania. That’s because he laid down the fastest lap in time trials that night, only to have an electrical problem prevent him from starting the main event. Gravel returns to Mercer this weekend with the UNOH All Star Circuit of Champions on Saturday, August 25, for a full night of racing, beginning with time trials, followed by heat races, a dash and concluding with a 30-lap main event.

“Every time we’ve been to Mercer we’ve been strong,” said Gravel. “We’ve been very fast lately, and just had some bad luck with lapped cars. We definitely have the speed, we just have to put a whole night together and we know we are more than capable of doing that.” Read more »

During a quick break in the Thunder Through the Plains schedule last week, he headed to the famed Knoxville Raceway in Iowa for the Goodyear Knoxville Nationals, where he earned a spot in the 50-lap main event, following a runner-up performance on the third qualifying night, that saw him lead a number of laps and turn in the fastest lap in qualifying.
