WINDOM, Minn. – The 2022 season gets underway next week for Big Game Motorsports, which will venture to Florida to tackle the 51st annual DIRTcar Nationals.

Volusia Speedway Park in Barberville hosts FloRacing All Star Circuit of Champions races on Feb. 8-9 before the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series kicks off its 2022 campaign at the track with a tripleheader running Feb. 10-12.

David Gravel returns to Big Game Motorsports following a stout first season with the team, including a fourth-place finish during all four DIRTcar Nationals races last year.

“It’s been a track I feel I’m pretty good at, but don’t have a lot of wins in my career,” he said. “I’ve been solid, but would love to win more races.”

Gravel was victorious at the half-mile track in 2017. He has recorded a top 10 during each of his last 12 races at the track dating back to 2019 and he has at least one top-10 result during the DIRTcar Nationals since 2011. Eight of those years featured a top-five outing, including five with a podium finish.

“It’s a fast track that can give you a lot of different surfaces,” he said. “It’s a confidence booster if you can run well right out of the box to start the season. I think we have the pieces in place to do that.”
