SWINDELL MAKES RETURN TO THE PAVEMENT THIS WEEKEND

July 2, 2025 - Three-time World of Outlaws sprint car champion Sammy Swindell is set to make his first winged pavement sprint car start since 1992 this weekend July 4-5 at Colorado National Speedway in Dacono, Colorado. Swindell will be driving for local Fort Collins, Colorado car owner Bryan Gossel. Gossel will also compete himself in a team car to Swindell. Swindell will be competing in two nights of racing with a winner's share of $10,000 each night.

Swindell has enjoyed a stellar career that has seen him win virtually every dirt sprint car race imaginable. But at 69 years of age, pavement sprint car starts have been few and far between. But when he did compete on the pavement, he was a force to be reckoned with.

Between 1991-1992 the World of Outlaws contested six special winged pavement sprint car events at tracks in Kansas City, Kansas and Punta Gorda, Florida. Swindell won a remarkable three of those races. He had two seconds and a fifth in his other starts. His last winged pavement start came on April 5, 1992. It was also his last win in a pavement sprint car. Now, over thirty-three years later, Swindell is set to pound the pavement once more.

“We put a deal together to come out here and run some dirt races earlier in the year. Bryan Gossel had some pavement cars and said they were having this big race in July” explained Swindell. “He had a new one sitting there that really wasn’t together. After the races we had a pretty good time, and he decided to get that other car together for me to come out here this weekend”.

Interestingly, Swindell has been running a handful of pavement midget races for the last few seasons for friends Tim Bertrand and David Ward.

“I’ve had a few opportunities here lately to do some pavement stuff. Now this opportunity has come up. It’s keeping me busy. I didn’t think I was gonna be doing a whole lot. I’ve been trying to cut back a little bit more. It seems I’m getting busier than ever, but that’s ok too.”

“The Outlaws did five pavement races or so and I did well there. I think I won three of them. We had some really good runs there. I liked running the winged cars on pavement. We have this opportunity to do some more this weekend. I’ve got a pretty good win percentage running the stuff I did with the Outlaws.”

Swindell got his first taste of pavement sprint car racing early in 1978 during Florida Speedweeks competing in a handful of non-winged events highlighted by a start in a 500-lap race at Golden Gate Speedway in Tampa. He found victory lane for the first time in a pavement sprint car at Orlando that year.

“That year I led every one of the pavement races down there, but I had some issues with the motor. We had some rocker arm issues. I had to start dead last at Orlando and won there. We put a deal together with M.A. Brown and Bruce Cogle Ford and put a car together to run those pavement races”.

Swindell has fond memories of competing at Colorado National Speedway when it was dirt. ”We first came out here in 1977 with Bobby Davis’ sprint car. That was the first time I ever seen a midget. I won it in John Notary’s car and ran second the next night. That Rocky Mountain Midget Association was running. We also won the sprint car deal both nights. That was a long time ago.” He would also win a World of Outlaws A-main at CNS in 1984.

The dirt veteran is open minded about the possibilities to do more winged pavement sprint car racing this year and beyond if he has fun and can find some success.

“It depends if something comes together. I don’t own cars. You never know. Maybe there will be some opportunities to run other races in the future.”

The Bartlett, Tennessee native seems eager for the task at hand but realizes things will be drastically different than his last go around on pavement. He last raced pavement on Good Year Tires. He will be on Hoosier’s this go around.

“Some of it is gonna be tire management and not running any races to know how the tires are. I’ll definitely stay on the conservative side, but fast enough to run good. I don’t have any experience with these tires or this track. I’m gonna have to lean on a few people to find out what they think about how hard you can run and what you can do. It will be fine; I’ll figure it out."

When asked what his goals are for this weekend, he was confident and direct with his answer. “Just to dominate the thing and win both nights” concluded Swindell.
