Revolution Racing Wins the OneDirt World Short Track Championship
St. Augustine, Florida (10/30/17) – A last-minute decision had successful repercussions for Revolution Racing over the weekend in the second annual OneDirt World Short Track Championship.
On Thursday Blake Spencer made the call to make the weekend move from driver to team owner, when he inked a deal for Jonathan Davenport to pilot his Revolution Racing #6 QuickLane Tire & Auto Longhorn Chassis Crate Late Model at the Dirt Track at Charlotte.
The last-minute move paid big dividends as Davenport picked up the $4,000 victory.
“I’m still learning the ins and outs of Dirt Late Model racing so to have Jonathan Davenport drive the car and Kevin Rumley turn the wrenches was a no brainer for us,†Spencer commented. “It was a great weekend for our team, and I’m looking forward to getting back behind the wheel at Charlotte for the upcoming weekend’s World Finals.â€
With Jonathan Davenport behind the wheel of the Bozard Ford #6 Crate Late Model, the Revolution Racing teamed headed to the Dirt Track at Charlotte (Concord, North Carolina) on Friday evening for the opening round of the OneDirt World Short Track Championship. After qualifying 29th fastest in a field of 66 entries, Davenport streaked to a heat race victory, positioning him sixth on the starting grid for the feature.
Overtaking race-leader Matt Long on lap-19 – when the leader retired with mechanical issues – Jonathan Davenport held off the field in the remaining 11 circuits to capture the $4,000 payday. Kyle Bronson, Max Blair, Benji Hicks, and Brett Hamm completed the Top 5 finishers in the 30-lap affair.
“I have to thank Blake Spencer and Letti Bozard for giving me this opportunity. Heath, his crew guy, called me and gave me this opportunity,†said Davenport. “I’m just glad to get back in one of these Longhorns and get the feel of it.â€
“I think Matt was the class of the field there,†added Davenport. “He was pretty good, and I don’t know if I could have got him in the traffic, but it is what it is. His misfortune was my fortune.â€

The upcoming weekend – November 2-4 – will see Blake Spencer back in the driver’s seat as he enters the annual Textron Off Road World Finals at the Dirt Track at Charlotte. The World of Outlaws (WoO) Craftsman Late Model Series opens with two rounds of qualifying on Thursday evening. Friday and Saturday will be headlined by a pair of $12,000-to-win events.
