Event to Feature Five Classes Brand New to the Desert Half-Mile Venue

LAS VEGAS (October 6, 2021) – X.CELERATED announces the inaugural Las Vegas Dirt Nationals event will take place on January 18-22, 2022 at The Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

The five-day Las Vegas Dirt Nationals event will be headlined by the Open Modified class, which will utilize a similar ruleset Open Modifieds use at the Karl Kustoms Bristol Dirt Nationals at Bristol Motor Speedway. The acceptable rules packages include those from USRA, USMTS, WISSOTA or UMP Modified.

A hybrid Sprint Car class modeled after the Texas-based Bandits Outlaw Sprint Car Series will join the event as a supporting class along with the fan-favorite Dwarf Cars, West Coast Sport Compacts and Hobby Stocks.

After multiple attempts to hold a 2021 Spring event from The Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway were derailed due to COVID-19 restrictions, XR Events is establishing this new annual event. The new Las Vegas Dirt Nationals will give Midwest racers a respite from the cold weather and new winter destination to kick off their racing seasons.

Full event details for the Las Vegas Dirt Nationals will be available soon. For event information, visit: www.lasvegasdirtnationals.com.

When I first saw the June 10th and 11th dates, I got excited because I was looking for a reason to go back to Belleville. Two one day shows with a total prize money of 75k to win should bring in a lot of cars. I then read that they are going against the dream, and my excitement quickly faded.

I realize that Belleville was facing an up hill battle to keep the midgets running there, but the decisions being made after dropping the midgets make me wonder.

This business model is ridiculous and will likely lose a ton of money. That said, it seems like LMs are always running for big money, there was supposed to be a $25k to win show at Kokomo for goodness sakes. I just wish once the buffoon who wants to lose his shirt would do it for non-winged sprints instead of a late model or other car.
