Ohio will welcome the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series for the final time this year with a doubleheader weekend to close out September.
The series will make its highly anticipated return to Wayne County Speedway in Orrville on Friday, September 27th and then return to Dave Blaney’s Sharon Speedway in Hartford on Saturday, September 28th.
Wayne County Speedway will be a major stop on the tour for the first time since 2020. Sheldon Haudenschild, who grew up about 15 minutes from the track in Wooster, won that event – his first series win at his home track.
The Outlaw World: Buckeye Brawl The event will pit World of Outlaws stars against Ohio’s top local talent, including Brandon Spithaler, Trey Jacobs, Leyton Wager – the current 410 Sprint Car points leader at the track – and more.
Afterwards, the World of Outlaws returns to Sharon Speedway for the Federated Auto Parts Showdown – the series’ second visit to the 3/8-mile dirt track this year. During the series’ last visit in May, David Gravel bested 10-time series champion Donny Schatz and Carson Macedo to score his first series win at the track.
This weekend also marks the start of the road to the World of Outlaws World Finals (November 6-9), with only 10 races remaining until the championship-deciding weekend.
If you can’t make it to the track, you can watch all the action from both races live on DIRTVision.
