Inside Line Promotions – MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (Aug. 3, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports produced a second-straight week of earning a trio of podium finishes with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series.

David Gravel guided the team to third-place results on Wednesday at BAPS Motor Speedway and Friday at Williams Grove Speedway before he won the C&D Rigging Summer Nationals finale at the track on Saturday. It marked Gravel’s 11th career World of Outlaws triumph at the unique oval.

“The first race where I ever drove a sprint car was at Williams Grove Speedway,” he said in a post-race interview on DIRTVision. “I did about four laps the whole night then went to Lincoln (Speedway) the next night and crashed in the heat race. Yeah, PA is where I got my start. I’ve got to thank Cody (Jacobs), Zach (Patterson) and Luke (Vaughn) for busting their butts.”

The busy week in Central Pennsylvania started at BAPS Motor Speedway in York Haven, Pa., on Wednesday. Gravel was sixth quickest in qualifying and he won a heat race as well as the dash before capping the night with a third-place finish in the A Main.

Two nights later, Gravel timed in fourth quickest in his group at Williams Grove Speedway. A heat race victory was followed by a fourth-place finish in the dash. Gravel gained a position in the main event to end third.

Saturday was near perfect for the team as Gravel was quickest in his group (Flight 1 quick time was quickest of the night to keep Gravel from a clean sweep). He then captured a heat race, the dash and the main event for his 10th feature triumph of the season.

The strong week pushed Gravel’s lead in the World of Outlaws championship standings to 180 points.

The Ironman 55 Weekend is up next for the team with shows this Friday and Saturday at I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway Park in Pevely, Mo. Gravel has World of Outlaws wins at the track in 2016 and 2024.
