BARBERVILLE, FL – February 16, 2019 – After a breathless week of incredible Super DIRTcar Series action, Stewart Friesen held off Gypsum Racing teammates Larry Wight and Billy Decker to win the 50-lap DIRTcar Nationals finale. Friesen outran Larry Wight on a green, white, checkered flag restart, but Wight tallied enough points to capture the Gator Championship. Billy Decker, who won the first round of DIRTcar Nationals Big-Block Modified competition, ran well enough to round out the podium.
