CONCORD, N.C. (Nov. 10, 2026) – Big Game Motorsports used a strong showing at the Dave Smith Motors World of Outlaws World Finals last weekend to wrap up its third consecutive World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series championship.
David Gravel is only the fifth driver in Series history to garner a trio of titles and the fourth to win three in a row. Big Game Motorsports Owner Tod Quiring ranks fifth in World of Outlaws owners championships with three triumphs.
The team opened the event at The Dirt Track at Charlotte last week by qualifying quickest in their group for Thursday’s program and 10th quickest in their group for Friday’s program.
On Thursday, Gravel won a heat race before he placed fifth in the dash and sixth in the A Main.
The following night, he maneuvered from fifth to third place in a heat race and from 11th to ninth place in the main event.
The weekend concluded on Saturday with misfortune early. Mechanical woes resulted in a DNF in a heat race. Gravel rebounded to capture the Last Chance Showdown before he gained four positions to end 17th in the A Main.
The two top 10s gave the team a series-best 66 top 10s this season.
The margin of victory in the championship standings was 86 points.
Gravel and the team celebrated the championship on Sunday during the World of Outlaws banquet. Additionally, Brian Morrison, who builds the team’s engines, was honored as Engine Builder of the Year.
