ROSSBURG, Ohio (May 5, 2023) — Logan Schuchart became the first winged sprint car winner of the season at Eldora Speedway after winning the main event with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series Friday night. Schuchart, from Hanover, Pennsylvania, held off a final lap challenge from the most recent World of Outlaws feature winner at Eldora Speedway, Rico Abreu, for the victory. The win was Schuchart’s first of the season with the Outlaws.
Defending World of Outlaws champion Brad Sweet started on the pole with Abreu to his outside, but it was Schuchart who quickly drove into the lead on the opening lap. Abreu kept pace with Schuchart, just out of striking distance until there were two laps to go. Abreu was able to get the lead off turn four and led coming to the white flag, but Schuchart was able to counter to take the lead back through turns one and two and drive away to victory. Abreu held on for second while Donny Schatz, Sweet, and David Gravel rounded out the top five.
