Jacob Allen was making moves “on the fly” when he began last year’s World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series campaign. Undaunted by the 80-plus race schedule, Allen felt like a changed man when the season kicked off at Florida’s Volusia Speedway Park in February. “I feel way better about myself as a guy setting up a race car and I feel way more confident when I’m in a position to win a race now. I didn’t have that experience of winning races last year,” Allen said. If he can pair the calculated, veteran mentality he’s displayed this season with the emotional memory of his second career Outlaw win, Allen and his No. “I’m somebody who, if I can get my race car feeling comfortable for me, I’m going to race up against the best of them,” Allen said.
