2019 in Review Outlaw 4s
The 2019 schedule would include eight appearances for the Outlaw 4 class, starting with the second week of the new season.
Defending class champion Brandon Yates would roll to a win in the first outing on March 9, the start of his defense of the track title. In week 2, a new driver in the class for the season would prevail in the feature. Nick Hebrank, who had won the Street Stock on the night when Yates won the Outlaw 4 main in March, would return to the class while the engine in his Street Stock was being rebuilt. Yates would become the first (and only) multiple winner by winning his second main on May 4.
The class would have a three-month break, but Yates showed no signs of rust in returning to Victory Lane on August 31. Yates would solidify his position atop the point standings with two more wins on September 21 and November 2.
Despite his stranglehold on Victory Lane, Yates could not lock up the point championship due to consistent finishes by Eric Knight and Stephen Hohlbaugh, who were regulars in the top three. Knight would eventually break through to claim his feature win on November 16. Cecil Martin closed off the year with a feature win on the final night of the 2019 season on December 14.
There would be 19 drivers in the class in 2019 with four drivers (Hohlbaugh, Knight, Yates and Candice Kealy) recording perfect attendance. Average car count was 9.8.
