StubHub and World Racing Group signed a multi-year partnership that makes StubHub the company’s Official Open Distribution Partner across a full season of World Racing Group events. The deal covers the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series, the World of Outlaws Late Model Series and the Super DIRTcar Series, with fans able to buy tickets through the series websites and StubHub.

Under the Open Distribution model, World Racing Group keeps ownership of its ticketing operations, fan data and event branding. The partnership also gives World Racing Group access to StubHub’s global marketplace of more than 125 million fans in more than 200 countries and territories. The agreement includes exclusive fan offers such as driver meet-and-greets and collectible pins.

StubHub is also the presenting sponsor of Super DIRT Week. The event is scheduled for its 54th running and 10th year at Oswego Speedway from Oct. 5-10. The Billy Whittaker Cars 200 is the main event, with a $54,000 prize.

The World of Outlaws Late Model Series heads to Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wisconsin, this weekend for the USA Nationals, a $100,000-to-win race that is the series’ second crown jewel event in as many weeks. Last year’s race delivered the first $100,000 payday in USA Nationals history, and Ryan Gustin returns as the defending winner.

Much of the attention centers on Bobby Pierce, who is trying to win the USA Nationals for a third straight year. A victory would move him within one win of the World of Outlaws single-season win record of 18. Trey Mills, 18, is set for his first USA Nationals start after strong runs in the Dream and the Prairie Dirt Classic.

Brandon Sheppard also enters on a high note after winning his fourth Prairie Dirt Classic last weekend. He previously won the USA Nationals in 2018. The weekend opens Thursday with a $10,000 feature, followed by qualifying and heat races Friday that will set much of Saturday’s 100-lap lineup. Last Chance races are scheduled Saturday to fill the field.

Brandon Sheppard won the Prairie Dirt Classic at Fairbury for the fourth time, giving Rocket1 Racing another major victory after the team reunited in 2025. The win was Sheppard’s first crown jewel triumph in the Rocket house car since 2022, and it was his 90th World of Outlaws Late Model Series victory and 128th national-touring win. His 128 combined wins across World of Outlaws and Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series history broke his tie with Scott Bloomquist for the most all-time.

Friday’s action also set part of the Prairie Dirt Classic field, with 16 drivers earning spots in the 2026 event through four Showdowns at Fairbury Speedway. The World of Outlaws Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision paid $5,000 to win each race, and Jason Feger, Sam Seawright, Sheppard and Trey Mills each won a Showdown to lock in entries.

The Prairie Dirt Classic also advanced 16 drivers into Saturday’s DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals main event at the 36th annual event in Fairbury, Illinois. Tyler Nicely won Showdown Feature 1 by leading all 15 laps for his third career PDC Showdown win, Mike McKinney won Showdown Feature 2 flag to flag, Ricky Thornton Jr. won Showdown Feature 3 after holding off Michael Ledford, and Trevor Neville won Showdown Feature 4 after passing Landen Miller on a Lap-4 restart. The top four finishers in each 15-lap race advanced, and the top two from each feature were set to redraw for starting spots during opening ceremonies.

David Gravel won the $20,000-to-win Federated Auto Parts Six Nations Showdown finale at Ohsweken Speedway on Wednesday night, passing Carson Macedo around the halfway point of the 35-lap World of Outlaws feature and pulling away on the slick track surface. The victory was Gravel’s third straight at Ohsweken, making him the first driver in 15 World of Outlaws series visits to win three consecutive races at the track. It was his eighth win of the 2026 season and widened his championship lead to 136 points as he pursues a third consecutive title.

Logan Schuchart finished second, Sheldon Haudenschild was third, D.J. Christie placed fourth in his first World of Outlaws Feature start, and Donny Schatz finished fifth. Macedo had led early from the outside front row before slipping in Turn 4 and losing the top spot to Gravel.

Tuesday’s opener at Ohsweken was canceled because of heavy rain, with World of Outlaws and track officials making the call. The finale still went ahead and paid $1,500 to start. The series next moves to Weedsport Speedway in New York on July 25-26 for the Empire State Challenge as part of a four-race Ontario and New York swing.

Anthony Macri won the 43rd Kings Royal at Eldora Speedway on Saturday night, repeating as champion in the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series feature. The victory gave Macri his second straight Kings Royal title, making him only the second driver to win the event in consecutive years and the first from Pennsylvania to do it. Dave Argabright crowned him Royal Sovereign after the race.

Macri started on the pole and led the opening 12 laps before Garet Williamson took over on Lap 13 and controlled much of the race. Macri got back to second with seven laps remaining, then passed Williamson with two laps to go. A late caution forced a green-white-checkered restart, and Macri held on to secure the win.

Rico Abreu finished second after advancing from 10th, Giovanni Scelzi was third for his best Kings Royal result, Corey Day finished fourth and Williamson was fifth after leading the most laps. Macri said he was “speechless” after the win, which was his fifth since returning from a back injury earlier in 2026 and his eighth overall victory of the season, including three World of Outlaws wins.

Bryce Lucius of Findlay, Ohio, scored the biggest win of his career Tuesday night at Attica Raceway Park, capturing the Ohio Logistics Brad Doty Classic Presented by DAC Vitamins and Minerals for his first World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars victory. Lucius held off Logan Schuchart to win the 40-lap Feature in a race that drew a 49-car field.

Lucius took the lead after Kyle Larson, who had been chasing a fourth Brad Doty Classic win to tie the event record, flipped his car in Turns 3 and 4 with eight laps remaining. Lucius had earlier passed Carson Macedo in traffic, then inherited the top spot after Larson’s crash and stayed in front to the finish.

The victory made Lucius the 157th different winner in World of Outlaws history, the 27th different Brad Doty Classic winner in 36 runnings and the 17th Ohio driver to win a World of Outlaws Series race.

Sheldon Haudenschild won the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series’ O’Reilly Auto Parts presents the Larry Hillerud Memorial finale on Saturday night at Wilmot Raceway in Wisconsin, taking the lead for good with two laps remaining after a late battle with Garet Williamson. Williamson had led early, and the two traded slide jobs and crossover moves in the closing laps before Haudenschild pulled away for his 52nd career World of Outlaws victory.

Williamson finished second, while David Gravel placed third, Spencer Bayston was fourth and Logan Schuchart rounded out the top five. The result gave Haudenschild and KCP Racing four victories in their last seven races.

Haudenschild and KCP Racing have also collected 10 podiums in their last 12 Features. The World of Outlaws series now heads to a two-race Ohio swing at Attica Raceway Park on July 14 and Eldora Speedway on July 17-18.

Bobby Pierce won the World of Outlaws Late Model Series feature at Sharon Speedway in Hartford, Ohio, on July 10, 2026, giving him his fourth career victory at the track. The win was his 17th World of Outlaws Late Model Series triumph of the season and the 59th of his career.

Nick Hoffman led the first third of the 60-lap race before Pierce took over in Turn 3 and stayed in front the rest of the way. Source details said Hoffman got too high in Turn 2 as Pierce completed the pass in Turn 3. Hoffman finished second, followed by Ryan Gustin in third, Tim McCreadie in fourth and Tyler Erb in fifth.

The World of Outlaws Late Model Series is next scheduled to race in the Prairie Dirt Classic at Fairbury Speedway on July 24-25.

Thunderstorms and the threat of more rain forced World of Outlaws Late Model Series and Sharon Speedway officials to cancel Friday’s portion of the Battle at the Border in Hartford, Ohio, with the decision made alongside Precision Weather Service and based on safety for fans and teams. Friday’s event will not be made up.

Fans who bought tickets in advance will receive a face-value credit to their MyDirtTickets.com account for two years. Ticket buyers can request a refund by Aug. 10 if the credit does not work for them.

The Battle at the Border is still scheduled to return Saturday, July 11. Saturday’s program is set to feature a 60-lap feature paying $20,000 to win, with grandstand gates opening at 4 p.m., an autograph session at 5 p.m. and hot laps at 7 p.m.
