CONCORD, N.C. — The World of Outlaws and CBS Sports Network have announced the schedule for this season’s broadcast package, featuring both the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series and the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Models.
The series premiere will be Sunday, Oct. 6, with back-to-back airings of both nights of the 41st annual AGCO Jackson Nationals at Jackson Speedway.
The full schedule includes 16 different races from tracks across the country.
“This has been an incredible year for us, and for the sport, as we have significantly ramped up our efforts to bring dirt racing to fans far and wide through all mediums, including CBS Sports Network’s doubled coverage,” said World of Outlaws CEO Brian Carter. “Last year, we put Fairbury Speedway’s legendary Prairie Dirt Classic on national television for the very first time, and this year fans will be able to enjoy the Jackson Nationals, the Champion Racing Oil National Open, and the Gold Cup Race of Champions for the first time in years.”
While the schedule will maintain the crown jewel events from year’s past — the Kings Royal at Ohio’s Eldora Speedway, the Firecracker at Pennsylvania’s Lernerville Speedway and the Can-Am World Finals at The Dirt Track at Charlotte (N.C.) — new tracks this year include Jackson (Minn.) Speedway, California’s Silver Dollar Speedway, and Pennsylvania’s Williams Grove Speedway.
CBS Sports Network will air 16 races in total, covering 10 World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series races and six World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series races.
Events will air on Sundays from Oct. 6 through Jan. 19, with the exception of Thanksgiving Week.
