Saturday’s win is Winger’s second World of Outlaws victory of the season, third of his career and his first World of Outlaws triumph in front of his home crowd.
“We didn’t even know if we were going to get the chance to race; this thing was in a million pieces Friday night,” Winger said. “I felt like at the middle stage of the race I had a good rhythm, but early I felt like I was kind of dead in the water.
“When we got to lap traffic the first time, I didn’t feel as good as I needed to, so I’m glad everything worked out the way it did.”
“Senoia is one of the places where if you get bottled up behind someone for a lap, it’s half a second,” Winger added. “When I’m looking on the scoreboard and I see Madden on there, and Whitener and guys that are pretty good in this area, I can’t sit there and mess with traffic for very long.”
