WEBSTER CITY, Iowa (Jan. 8) – Officials from the United States Modified Touring Series released the 2009 USMTS National Tour schedule of events Thursday which features an exciting slate of races that is sure to make the winter months seem even longer to thousands of action-hungry race fans.
The assembled slate of mud-slinging shows includes return events at some the most popular USMTS venues, as well as a bolstered menu of new racetracks representing the finest in the country.
The rugged road warriors of the USMTS National Tour will thrill race fans in America's heartland with an aggressive campaign which currently features 60 events at 39 different venues in 10 different States. The schedule is highlighted with return engagements to 31 facilities that hosted an O’Reilly USMTS National Event last season, one facility returning to the line-up after a two-year hiatus and seven new venues encompassing some of the most exciting dirt ovals in America.
For the sixth straight year, they USMTS National Events campaign will kick off with a doubleheader at the Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Neb.

Thursday, June 25, is reserved for a to-be-announced event prior to invading the U.S. 36 Raceway in Osborn, Mo., on Friday, June 26. After a two-year hiatus, the USMTS National Tour returns to the state-of-the-art Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Mo., on Saturday, June 27, to close the curtain on a busy month of June and kick off a nearly four-week "summer vacation" for the tireless USMTS National Tour teams before returning to battle on Thursday, July 24, at the Fayette County Speedway in West Union, Iowa.

The USMTS National Tour will return to the Deer Creek Speedway for the 11th Annual Featherlite Fall Jamboree on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Sept. 24-26. The standing-room-only show has become one of the most popular races on the calendars of Modified fans, as well as one of the most lucrative for the drivers. Thursday’s main event winner will pocket $2,000, Friday’s winner will get $4,000 and a $6,000 paycheck awaits Saturday’s champion. Last season's Featherlite Fall Jamboree saw more than 120 drivers compete, with a rich pedigree pit area full of America’s best-known pilots.
