NEW EGYPT, N.J. — May 24, 2017 — Off to undoubtedly his best career start to a season, David Gravel came into the Jersey Outlaw Classic at New Egypt Speedway with seven wins on the 2017 World of Outlaws Craftsman® Sprint Car Series season. Starting from the second position, Gravel quickly jumped out to the lead and was able to hold off a hard-charging Donny Schatz and Brad Sweets as the laps ticked away. At a track where he cut his teeth in Sprint Car racing, Gravel picked up his eighth-win of the season, along with the last three of the last four races for the Outlaws.
