Grant won three Friday night preliminary events in a row from 2016-2018, and has two podium Saturday A-main finishes. The past two years, he has competed for Jeff Taylor and Ricky Young at RAMS Racing in Tulsa, and will continue to prepare their cars for the 2021 edition.
Along with Grant, the team added two new additions to their 2021 Tulsa lineup: 2017 USAC National Midget Series Champion Spencer Bayston confirmed to our Chet Christner at the Copper Classic at Arizona Speedway this weekend that he has joined the team to compete for this year’s Golden Driller.
Bayston also will team up with multi-time World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series winner and 2019 A-Main Chili Bowl starter David Gravel.
