Shane Stewart\u00a0<\/strong>started on the outside of the front row in the A-Main Saturday night as part of the second part of the first-ever Music City Nationals at Fairgrounds Speedway in Nashville.<\/p>\n

By the time the field reached the middle of the back stretch, Stewart had gotten around\u00a0Jeff Swindell\u00a0<\/strong>to take the lead.<\/p>\n

He wouldn’t go on to lead all of the final 29 and a half laps, but the CJB Racing driver would take the No. 5 car to victory lane for the first time this season.<\/p>\n

Shane Stewart earns first win of WoO season in Night 2 at Nashville<\/h2>\n

Stewart did however hold the lead until lap 7, when\u00a0Brent Marks\u00a0<\/strong>got around him for the first spot still looking for his own first victory of the year.<\/p>\n

The caution flew however after four cars spun in turns three and four, meaning Stewart would retain the lead on the single-file restart.<\/p>\n

Marks would continue to work Stewart for the lead, and the two eventually battled wheel-to-wheel for the top spot for a few consecutive laps before the No. 19 took the lead on lap 12.<\/p>\n

Fast forward 10 laps and Marks was staring lapped traffic in the face going into turns one and two trying to finish off his night in Nashville.<\/p>\n

Marks ran the car too high and ended up catching some of the cushion to allow Stewart to pass him for the lead on the inside with nine to go.<\/p>\n

Stewart would lead for the remainder of the night and hold off Marks to earn a $25,000 check and a trip to victory lane.<\/p>\n

Stewart remains in sixth in the World of Outlaws standings, but gains 10 points on leader\u00a0Donny Schatz<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and another 20 points on fifth-place\u00a0Logan Schuchart<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The World of Outlaws Sprint Cars return to the track on Tuesday for the FVP Platinum Battery Showdown at Fairbury Speedway<\/a> in Illinois.<\/p>\n
