Brad Sweet led every lap from the pole to win the Knoxville Raceway opener for the Premier Chevy Dealers NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws event, taking the non-stop 25-lap main in the Paul Silva/Silva Motorsports No. 94 and collecting $12,000. He separated from the field late and finished more than two seconds ahead of David Gravel.

David Gravel, J.J. Hickle, Justin Henderson and Ryan Timms pressured Sweet early, and on lap two Gravel mounted a strong high-side surge to challenge Sweet in traffic. Sweet held the point throughout, Gravel settled for second, and Timms finished third, 0.042 seconds behind Gravel. Brent Marks was fourth and J.J. Hickle was fifth.

The victory was Sweet’s 93rd World of Outlaws feature win and his first at Knoxville since June 2019. The win extended Sweet’s streak to 15 consecutive seasons with at least one World of Outlaws feature victory, tying him for the fourth-longest run, and marked his third win in eight 410 Sprint Car starts this season. Gravel’s runner-up effort was his 10th podium of the season and extended his points lead in the World of Outlaws standings. Buddy Kofoid posted the Race//Ready Hottest Lap of the Night, and the Knoxville opener drew a 65-car field, one shy of the non-Knoxville Nationals one-day record of 66 set in 1979.
