“It’s pretty exciting to get a call from SRX inviting me to race with some of the best drivers in the country from such different racing backgrounds on dirt at Lucas Oil Speedway next week,” said Davenport.
Davenport also won the dirt late model $1 million event at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio last season.
“SRX wins with Jonathan Davenport stepping into the seat of one of our cars at Lucas Oil Speedway,” said Don Hawk, SRX Chief Executive Officer. “He is a multiple time Champion who steps up in big race scenarios. I expect him to do the same as he battles some the very best at Lucas Oil Speedway.”
