WHO TO EXPECT: Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series Debuts on Monday and Tuesday at Millbridge
Nearly 50+ Entries Expected for Inaugural Series Event on DIRTVision
SALISBURY, NC – May 23, 2022 – The Xtreme Outlaw Sprint Car Series presented by Low-E Insulation had its turn in February, now the history-making is in the hands of the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota Racing this week.
Announced in December, the new Series will officially come to life on Monday & Tuesday, May 23-24 at Millbridge (NC) Speedway for the Production Alliance Group Double Down Showdown. The intrigue and interest are at an all-time high with nearly 50+ entries expected to compete over two nights on DIRTVision, along with a loaded class of 600cc micro sprints.
On top of 15+ teams already committed to the full 10-race mini-series, this week’s inaugural Xtreme Outlaw Midget event is attracting some of the brightest names in motorsports ahead of NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600 weekend. Racers will battle for $4,000/Win, $300/Start on Monday, and $5,000/Win, $400/Start purse on Tuesday, with plenty of incentives in between.
Several exciting off-track activities, such as a post-race concert and BBQ catering on Monday & racer appreciation lunch on Tuesday, are also planned around the much-anticipated debut. If worse comes to worst, the Series and track are both fully committed to using Wednesday as a rain date for teams and fans.
