LINCOLN, Ill. – Lincoln Speedway, located at the Logan County Fairgrounds in Lincoln, Ill., will open its season by hosting the rescheduled finale of the DIRTcar Fall Nationals on April 9.
Lincoln Speedway hosted the DIRTcar Fall Nationals for the first time in October of 2020, with two days of racing scheduled. Unfortunately, only the first of the two race days were completed as rainfall settled in on the Saturday portion of the event.
The Friday event had well more than 100 cars, including a field of 42 DIRTcar modifieds.
Following last year’s format, the April 9 event will have DIRTcar Super Late Models, Modifieds, Pro Modifieds, and Sport Compacts (Hornets). Those who were registered for last year’s event are set and entered for this year’s make-up date. New entries will also be accepted via pre-registration or at the track.
An open practice is scheduled for Thursday, April 8.
Competitors who had purchased two-day pit passes as well as fans who had purchased two-day or Saturday tickets in person or online will be able to use those by presenting them at the event.
The 2021 Fall Nationals will also be held at the quarter-mile dirt track, following the regular season for DIRTcar competitors. Practice will be held on Thursday, Sept. 30 with racing Oct. 1-2. Full details on that event will be announced at a later date.
