Brent Marks won his sixth-career World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series victory Saturday night at the Champion Racing Oil Summer Nationals. The PA Posse race car driver gave fans one of the more exciting finishes in recent memory against fellow sprint car competitors representing the World of Outlaws at the Mechanicsburg 1/2-mile. A tricky and technical surface combined with challenging lap traffic situations created an intense fight for the lead late in the going during the 30-lap race.

Marks took the lead in the closing laps and officially scored his 11th career Williams Grove win with a 0.903-second margin of victory. “That was pretty intense,” stated Marks. “We had a lot of close calls out there, but we survived and pulled it off. The track really threw us for a curveball, it was drier than we expected. We made the right calls, though. That was a ton of fun racing.”

Over the final five laps, Marks maintained a steady pace on the cushion and walked away with his second World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series victory of the 2021 season.
