    Gavin Landers Ready to Taste the Gumbo

    Batesville, Arkansas (10/06/17) – Gavin Landers will be taking his Crop Production Services #77 ASC Warranty Sweet Bloomquist Super Late Model into battle this weekend as he pursues a $10,000 top prize in the 11th annual Gumbo Nationals.

    “Greenville Speedway can be a wild place, but it seems like we’ve been getting better and better the past few times we’ve been there,” Landers said. “After last week’s rough ride at Batesville (Motor Speedway), we’re just hoping for a smooth and successful outing this weekend.”

    Competing in the inaugural Race for Hope 74, Gavin Landers headed to Batesville Motor Speedway (Batesville, Arkansas) last Wednesday night in his Crop Production Services #77L Open Wheel Modified. In a field of 91 cars, Landers secured his spot into the opening night preliminary feature with a second-place finish in his heat race behind J.T. Goodson. Locking the Top 8 into the $20,000-to-win A-Main on Saturday evening, Gavin posted a 23rd-place outing.

    The following night for another round of preliminary action, Gavin landed a runner-up finish in his heat behind Kurt Kile, sending him into the A-Main. Falling short of a Top 10 finish, Landers registered a 15th-place finish.

    Returning to the 3/8-mile on Friday, Gavin started the night with a heat race victory, which locked him into the preliminary feature. From that point his luck took a turn for the worst. Battling for a Top-10 finish, Landers got squeezed into the wall, which sent him flipping violently. He was able to walk away from the scary incident unharmed while being credited with a 21st-place finish.

    Due to extensive damage on his racecar, Landers’ weekend was over after his wreck on Friday night.

    “That was probably the wildest thing I’ve ever had happen to me,” Landers recollected. “It really made me appreciate just how important quality safety equipment truly is. It allowed me to walk away uninjured.”

    This weekend – October 6-7 – Gavin will compete in the 11th annual Gumbo Nationals at Greenville Speedway (Greenville, Mississippi). The Mississippi State Championship Challenge Series (MSCCS) sanctioned event posts a $10,000 top prize for Saturday night’s finale.
