Wilson Wins Wild Race at The Dirt Track at Charlotte
Captures Circle K/NOS Energy Drink Outlaw Showdown for second career series win

CONCORD, N.C. – May 27, 2016 – A caution with six-laps remaining helped propel 2016 Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year contender Greg Wilson to his second career World of Outlaws Craftsman® Sprint Car Series victory in the Circle K/NOS Energy Drink Outlaw Showdown at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on Friday night.

Wilson, who won his first World of Outlaws race at the 4-Crown Nationals at Eldora Speedway in 2015, led just one lap of the 30-lap feature, after he passed race leader Shane Stewart on the final lap to capture the checkered flag.

“I’ve never dreamt in my wildest dreams that I would ever get this opportunity,” Wilson said. “I have been blessed to run with the World of Outlaws this year. To do this in Charlotte, in front of all these fans, this is badass and that’s all there is to it!”

Stewart, who led a race-high 25 laps, settled for a runner-up finish after he easily controlled the top spot for much of the feature.

“Greg [Wilson] is new to the Outlaw deal and it’s always cool to see someone get their first Outlaw win – I’m not sure if he’s won an Outlaw race before or not,” Stewart said. “We hated to lose a race like that, but hats off to Greg.”
