MYERSTOWN, Pa. (January 15, 2018) – The “Myerstown Missile” Brent Marks will kick-off his 2018 World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series campaign in style, debuting a white ride featuring all major partners, most of which returning to Brent Marks Racing from years prior.
Headquartered in Ephrata, Buckwalter Trucking is the most recent partner to join Brent Marks and his Myerstown-based operation. Buckwalter Trucking will join other major contributors including M&M Painting & Construction, BAPS Auto Paint & Supply, A.

“We have an overwhelming level of support for 2018. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to have the partners that I do. I’m proud of what my team has been able to accomplish. The only thing left to do is get this car to victory lane. I’m confident in saying we are one of the hardest working teams on the road. That hard work is going to pay off this year,” Marks said, who earned 23 top-ten finishes during World of Outlaws competition in 2017.
The “Myerstown Missile” will launch his sophomore season with the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series at Volusia Speedway Park near Barberville, Florida. Headlining three days of the 47th Annual DIRTcar Nationals, the Greatest Show On Dirt will take over the Volusia County half-mile on Friday through Sunday, February 9-11.
Marks earned his first World of Outlaws top-ten finish as a full-time traveler during his Volusia Speedway Park visit in 2017, finishing eighth during the first of two features on Sunday, February 19.
