2023 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series Standings: 8th | 4490 points
By Fully Injected Motorsports:
CARLISLE, Pa. (July 3, 2023) – Lebanon, Indiana’s Spencer Bayston and CJB Motorsports put together an impressive weekend campaign at Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wisconsin, eventually capping the annual Independence Day Spectacular with a pair of top-ten performances, all of which highlighted with a runner-up score in the weekend finale on Saturday, July 1.
Bayston, driver of the TrueTimber Camo, Rothco, JRC Transportation, Nyce Crete and Landis, Ecynbro Trucking, C&S Lawn and Landscape, Kistler Engines, Highlands’ Power Sports, High Performance Lubricants, No. 5 sprint car, started from the pole in Saturday’s 35-lapper, racing on to lead 19 circuits total before losing command to eventual winner, David Gravel. Gravel made his winning move on lap 28, sneaking by Bayston on the bottom of turn four.
An early battle with Carson Macedo would see the two exchange positions on a few occasions. Bayston led the opening circuit before losing the top spot the following loop. A slider on lap 10 would secure the lead for Bayston once again.
One night prior in the Independence Day Spectacular opener, Bayston finished fifth, the product of an impressive rally from 22nd on the grid. In fact, Bayston was up to ninth with only four laps complete, utilizing a pair of multi-car cautions to propel himself forward.
“Overall, a great weekend for this CJB Motorsports team. Our performance on Friday is a testament to this team’s hard work and perseverance. They have a ‘never give up’ attitude and it certainly paid off. To follow that performance up with a podium is even more exciting, especially with such a big July slate ahead,” Bayston said. “I think we were strong enough to win on Saturday. During the midpoint, I could feel the track begin to change and get abrasive. Not too often someone is able to pass you when the track gets like that. Regardless, getting another taste of the podium makes us even hungrier for a win.”

Spencer Bayston and CJB Motorsports will continue their 2023 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series campaign with another swing through the heart of the Midwest, first visiting 34 Raceway in West Burlington, Iowa, for the West Burlington Sprint Car Showdown on Friday, July 7, followed by a stop at Wilmot Raceway in Wilmot, Wisconsin, for the Larry Hillerud Memorial Badger 40 on Saturday, July 8.
