Inside Line Promotions – WINDOM, Minn. (Jan. 31, 2022) – The 2022 season gets underway next week for Big Game Motorsports, which will venture to Florida to tackle the 51^st annual DIRTcar Nationals.

Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville hosts FloRacing All Star Circuit of Champions races on Feb. 8-9 before the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series kicks off its 2022 campaign at the track with a tripleheader running Feb. 10-12.

David Gravel returns to Big Game Motorsports following a stout first season with the team, including a fourth-place finish during all four DIRTcar Nationals races last year.

“It’s been a track I feel I’m pretty good at, but don’t have a lot of wins in my career,” he said. “I’ve been solid, but would love to win more races.”

Gravel was victorious at the half-mile track in 2017. He has recorded a top 10 during each of his last 12 races at the track dating back to 2019 and he has at least one top-10 result during the DIRTcar Nationals since 2011. Eight of those years featured a top-five outing, including five with a podium finish.

“It’s a fast track that can give you a lot of different surfaces,” he said. “It’s a confidence booster if you can run well right out of the box to start the season. I think we have the pieces in place to do that.” Read more »

Inside Line Promotions – WINDOM, Minn. (Jan. 26, 2022) – A fresh design and heightened goals highlight the end to the offseason for Big Game Motorsports and David Gravel, who return to the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series trail in two weeks following a successful first season together.

The team placed second in the 2021 World of Outlaws championship standings – a career best for Gravel and tied for the best ever for the team. The next step is a championship, which is the ultimate goal.

“It was a great first year,” Gravel said. “We’re keeping most of the team from last year so I’m really looking forward to continuing to build my relationship with Cody (Jacobs) and the guys. We have most of the same equipment. I feel we should start off pretty close and then fine-tune.”

Gravel captured 11 World of Outlaws victories last year, which is the most in a single season for Big Game Motorsports since 2012. The team added three non-sanctioned wins for a total of 14 trips into Victory Lane.

“We had a great season and still have room to grow so I’m excited for our potential,” Gravel said. “Hopefully we can start off the year on a strong note at Volusia. It’s a track where I’ve been successful, but don’t have a lot of wins.” Read more »
