After having Danny Lasoski fill in for them for the last two weeks, Dennis Roth and the entire Roth Motorsports organization is extremely excited to announce that Watertown, CT driver, David Gravel is the new driver of the Roth Enterprises No. 83 machine.

“We are looking forward to David Gravel coming on board and being our new driver,” Dennis Roth said. “He has done well over the last few years, and we think this is a great fit for both parties.”

The new arrangement will kick off this weekend as Gravel and his Roth Motorsports team take to the famed Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, OH for more World of Outlaw action.

“I am beyond excited for the chance to work with the entire Roth Motorsports team,” Gravel said. “They have always put a great product on the track, and I am excited to see what we can do together. I also need to thank Tom and Sherry Leidig for the opportunity they gave me this year. It is tough to leave great people, but I wish them the best.”

Gravel has competed most of the 2014 season with the World of Outlaws, and has made a few other stops as well, toatlling 21 races with a feature event win (Merced WoO), four Top-Five’s, 13 Top 10’s, and has also earned two fast time awards.

Joining Gravel and the Roth Motorsports team of Scotty Martin and Brandon Hickman on the road will be long time Crew Chief, Sonny Kreitzer. During the 2013 season, Kreitzer worked with the Roth Motorsports California team and helped them get off to a great start and ultimately claim the King of the West Title.

“We are excited to have Sonny back with us,” Roth said. “He helped us a bit in 2013, and was also in the pit area during the California swing, and we are hoping he can help us continue on for the rest of the 2014 season and pick up some feature wins.”

With the new arrangement in place, the Roth Motorsports team would like to thank Danny Lasoski for his two-week substitute role with the team.

The Roth Motorsports team would like to thank Roth Enterprises, HR Livestock Transportation, 3H Cattle, Mobil1, FK Rod Ends, Weld Wheels, Brown and Miller Racing Solutions, Kent Performance, Kaeding Performance, and Astro Titanium for their support in 2014.
