THE STAGE IS SET: 2020 USA Nationals Champion Crowned Tonight

Saturday’s 100-Lap Feature Pays $50,000-to-win, $3,000-to-start at Cedar Lake Speedway

NEW RICHMOND, WISC. – It all comes down to this. Saturday night of the 33rd annual USA Nationals.

A stacked field of 45 World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series competitors have made it through a full preliminary program on Thursday, a passing points format on Friday, and now they’re set to chase a huge $50,000-to-win payout in tonight’s 33rd annual 100-lap USA Nationals feature at Cedar Lake Speedway.

“Mr. Smooth” Billy Moyer, a 62-year old legend from Batesville, AR, will start from the pole position tonight with a record-breaking sixth-career USA Nationals championship on the line. Joining Moyer on the front row with an outside pole starting spot is DIRTcar Summer Nationals icon, Brian Shirley of Chatham, IL, who chases his first coveted wooden eagle trophy.

Fellow superstars including Brandon Sheppard, Jimmy Owens, Brandon Overton, Tyler Erb, Jimmy Mars, Rick Eckert, Mike Marlar, Darrell Lanigan, Cade Dillard, Kyle Bronson, Ashton Winger, Chris Simpson, Frank Heckenast Jr., and Jason Rauen are also locked-in for the 100-lap feature through passing points.

Saturday’s program for the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series includes a pair of 15-lap Last Chance Showdowns (3 Transfer) and a 15-lap Last Chance Qualifier (2 Transfer) before the lights go down, the glow sticks illuminate the night sky, and some of the coolest driver intro’s in racing electrify a standing-room only crowd.

The action is slated to kick off with hot laps hitting the New Richmond, Wisc. 3/8th-mile at 6:30pm CT tonight. Before that, fans can make their way to vendor row behind the front stretch for a Driver Autograph Session at 4:30pm CT.

Tickets are available for purchase at the gates for the time being. Act fast, as this is expected to be a monstrous crowd tonight. For those unable to make it, you can watch all the racing from the comfort of home with the DIRTVision Pay-Per-View for $29.99.
