CONCORD, N.C. — The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series and the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series, together with their partner tracks, have updated schedules into mid-June in an effort to safely return to racing in a manner that allows tracks, teams, partners and fans to begin looking ahead.

The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series is set to race Friday night, May 8, at Knoxville (Iowa) Raceway in a $10,000-to-win, behind-closed-doors Invitational by McKay Insurance with Nationwide. While spectators will not be able to attend in person, fans across the world can watch live on DIRTVision.

The World of Outlaws will next race May 22-23 at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 in Pevely, Mo., in front of a limited, socially distanced crowd in events paying $6,000-to-win on the Friday night and $10,000-to-win on Saturday night.

On May 29-30, the world’s premier sprint car series will shift to Lake Ozark Speedway in Eldon, Mo., for another $6,000/$10,000, Friday/Saturday event in front of a limited, socially distanced crowd. The previously scheduled Jason Johnson Classic will be held at a later date.

In June, the World of Outlaws will return to Knoxville Raceway, June 12-13, as originally scheduled for the Brownells Big Guns Bash, currently with no crowd, but with the hope that some fans may be permitted by that date.

Events originally scheduled for May 23 at The Dirt Track at Charlotte, May 25 at Lawrenceburg Speedway, May 29 at Lake Ozark Speedway, May 30 at I-70 Motorsports Park and June 3 at I-80 Speedway have been postponed.

The always popular June 5 event at River Cities Speedway in Grand Forks, N.D., and June 6 at Granite City Speedway in Sauk Rapids, Minn., remain on the schedule, with a final determination being made closer to the event dates based on local guidelines.

The World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series is also adjusting its schedule, with action resuming May 15-16 at Federated Auto Parts Raceway at I-55 rather than the previously announced Boone Speedway.

The fast-changing landscape has provided the opportunity to shift the series re-opener to Pevely, Mo., in front of fans on a limited basis. Federated Auto Parts Raceway’s location also makes it convenient and cost-effective for late model teams who may compete earlier in the week at Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo.

The return at Pevely will feature a $6,000-to-win on Friday and $10,000-to-win on Saturday, with the series then heading to U.S. 36 Raceway in Cameron, Mo., on Monday, May 18, for $6,000-to-win event in front of a limited crowd.

Next up the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model stars will head to the magnificent Jackson (Minn.) Motorplex for the series debut on May 22-23 for $6,000/$10,000 events on Friday and Saturday provided Minnesota opens on schedule on May 18.

Following the traditionally DIRTcar-sanctioned Dream weekend at Eldora Speedway on June 4-6, the series will resume action June 12-13 in a $6,000/$10,000 Friday and Saturday event at Cochran (Ga.) Motor Speedway in front of a limited crowd.

The originally scheduled races May 29 at Jacksonville (Ill.) Speedway and May 30 at Tri-State Speedway in Haubstadt, Ind., have been postponed.

Tickets to all limited crowd events will go on sale in the very near future and be available through WorldofOutlaws.com. Participant and spectator guidelines will be enforced consistent with state, county, city and World of Outlaws procedures. Expectations for all attendees will be communicated in advance.

The events at Knoxville and I-55 will run with the previously announced 48-car maximum field size. The events to follow will require advance registration, but field sizes will be limited only by track-specific pit area size, parking teams in every other pit stall.
