On Friday Night, September 1 the Series visits Bill Sawyer's Virginia Motor Speedway in Saluda, VA for the "All American 50" with a $10,000 first place prize up for grabs. On Saturday Night, September 2 the Series heads to the Tyler County Speedway in Middlebourne, WV for the 38th Annual "Hillbilly 100" paying $25,000 to win and $1000 to start. At both tracks the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series will have a complete race program with Comp Cams Time Trials, PBM Performance Products Heat Races, Mason Racin' Rebel Shock Dyno and Penske Shocks B-Mains and the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series A-Main. The "All American 50" at Bill Sawyer's Virginia Motor Speedway will have the cameras of SPEED Channel on hand to tape the event which will be shown on a date and time to be announced in the future.
