Greg Wilson Wins at Eldora, Claims First Ever Outlaws Victory
The Ohio-native becomes the 21st different winner of the season, second first-time winner of the year
ROSSBURG, Ohio – Sept. 25, 2015 – Greg Wilson’s ascent through the field at Eldora Speedway‘s 4-Crown Nationals on Friday night was steady and underneath everyone’s radar as he rode the bottom of the track to his first ever World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series victory.
The Benton Ridge, Ohio-native and All Star Circuit of Champions regular, passed Rico Abreu midway through the feature and ran away with the win, leading second-place Shane Stewart by nearly seven seconds at the end.
“This is a World of Outlaws win!” an emotional Wilson said in victory lane. “I was starting to wonder. I just turned 40 – hell, I thought I was going to have to get Depends and quit this stuff. You ain’t going to wipe this smile off for a long time.”
