Fox Sports Films will debut a five-part documentary series later this month of behind-the-scenes chronicles from dirt tracks across the country.

“Dirt: The Last Great American Sport” will debut Tuesday, May 16 at 7pm ET on Fox Sports 1. The series was produced by FloSports Studios.

Some of the biggest dirt racing events in the country will be shown throughout the series, such as the Chili Bowl, King’s Royal, and BC39. Throughout will be commentary from some of the sport’s biggest names along with crew members, fans, and family members.

Among the drivers featured in the series that shows racing and life away from the racetrack is NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson, who splits his time running — and winning — on dirt and in NASCAR.

Justin Grant, the 2022 USAC Silver Crown champion, is also featured. As is the 2019 USAC National Midget champion Tyler Courtney and 19-time USAC National Series winner Thomas Meseraull.

I like the Larson comment, "The fear is nothing when you're strapping in or going racing, but when you're about to hit something, its like, I hope this doesn't hurt"
