“The Reaper” hopes for redemption when he returns on Memorial Day Weekend, still searching for his first career Series triumph.
Gustin is joined by current points leader Dennis Erb Jr., who’s off to his best start in World of Outlaws history, scoring a win and five top-fives in the first 10 races of the season.
Chasing the Carpentersville, IL driver in the standings is Pennsylvania’s Max Blair, who also has a win in 2022. He’s currently second in points—44 points behind Erb.
Bear Lake, PA driver Boom Briggs is another driver to watch on Memorial Day weekend after a sixth-place finish in 2021.
A stout field of regional competitors will also be on hand to try and keep the World of Outlaws drivers from winning on their home turf. That includes the return of Dirty Dozen original Chub Frank.
“Chubzilla” scored a top-ten in last year’s event and his veteran knowledge could be key to finding Victory Lane at the track, like his win there in 2007.
