Daryn Pittman enters the event at Attica third in points, on the strength of 10 Top-10 finishes. He picked up a win in the finale of the Florida DIRTcar Nationals in Florida in February.

The native of Owasso, Oklahoma is only 104 points out of the top spot as he chases his first World of Outlaws title. Danny Lasoski, the 2001 World of Outlaws champion, has been one of the most consistent drivers this season.
