BENTON RIDGE, Ohio (June 19, 2023) – It was an up and down battle for Greg Wilson in the 2023 edition of Ohio Sprint Speedweek featuring the All Star Circuit of Champions, and despite a few lows, most of which in the form of “DNF” finishes, the Benton Ridge, Ohio, native and former All Star and Ohio Sprint Speedweek champion still managed to find success, just missing the top-ten on two occasions including one during the $22,554-to-win finale at Portsmouth.
Wilson, ace of his own Hercules Tires, DNC Hydraulics, Ohio Logistics Warehousing and Transportation, No. W20 sprint car, earned his Ohio Sprint Speedweek success stories during starts at Attica Raceway Park on Friday, June 9, Eldora Speedway on Friday June 16, and Portsmouth Raceway Park on Saturday, June 17, finishing 11th, 15th, and 14th, respectively, with two of the three being products of forward progress. Wilson’s 15th-place finish at Eldora commenced from row 12, while Wilson’s eventual 14th-place rally in Portsmouth’s Dean Knittel Memorial began in row 10.
“Ohio Sprint Speedweek is always a tough stretch, but I think we put out a great effort,” Wilson explained. “We’re getting closer and closer to where we need to be. Forward progress is an important part of sprint car racing and we proved our potential to do so on a few occasions. We just need a little bit more.”

Tentatively, Greg Wilson and Greg Wilson Racing will continue their 2023 campaign with another Attica/Fremont Championship Series doubleheader on Friday and Saturday, June 23-24. As the name suggests, action will take Wilson to Attica Raceway Park on Friday and Fremont Speedway on Saturday.
