Did you know that motorsports fans consumed over 3.4 billion minutes of racing content on streaming platforms last year alone? It’s a huge number, but if you are a fan of USAC’s unique brand of non-wing sprint cars, midgets, or Silver Crown beasts, you know the struggle of finding exactly where to tune in.
In this guide, NXTbetsis going to clarify how to watch USAC racing in 2026. Whether you are a first-time viewer needing a quick link or a veteran looking for the lowest latency feed for betting, we’ve got you covered.
Different streaming platforms offer unique services – some are free while others are paid subscriptions. Here are the options you’ve got:
FloRacing
FloRacing is the official streaming partner for USAC, meaning this is where you will find every lap of the National Sprint, Midget, and Silver Crown seasons live.
Here is what a subscription actually gets you:
Live broadcasts: Full coverage from hot laps and qualifying all the way through the B-Mains and the Feature
Replays & archives: Immediate access to full event replays and a library of past races
Event hubs: Centralized pages for each race week that include schedules, results, and news
Supported devices have increased significantly for 2026. You can watch on the web, mobile apps (iOS/Android), and Connected TV devices like Roku, Fire TV, Chromecast, and Apple TV. A significant upgrade for this year is the addition of native apps for Samsung, Vizio, and LG Smart TVs, making it easier than ever to get the action on the big screen without casting.
YouTube & Social
While you generally have to pay to see the live features, YouTube is a fantastic resource for free content. The official USAC and FloRacing channels frequently post teasers, condensed highlights, and interviews.
New for the 2025/2026 cycle is the ‘FreeRacing on FloRacing’ campaign. This initiative streams select top-tier events entirely for free on YouTube to help introduce new fans to the sport. While you shouldn’t expect the Chili Bowl A-Main to be free, keep an eye out for these special promotional broadcasts throughout the season.
Free Live Audio
USAC provides free, live audio broadcasting for many of its events. It’s perfect for the drive-time fan or as a low-data option when your Wi-Fi is spotty. You can listen directly via the USAC Racing website or the Mixlr app. The platform also features a chat function, allowing you to interact with other listeners if you want to geek out over split times.
Where to Watch by Region
Before you settle in for the night, it’s always smart to verify the specific listings for the next round on USAC’s official site or the FloRacing event hub – local TV deals can occasionally shift things.
United States
For American fans, FloRacing handles full live and video-on-demand (VOD) coverage. TV simulcasts on traditional cable are rare for regular-season events, so don’t count on finding the race on a standard sports channel. Your best free complements are the YouTube highlights for the next morning and Mixlr for live audio if you aren’t subscribed.
Canada
FloRacing is available directly in Canada, offering the same live events and archives as the US version. You can catch highlights on YouTube and grab the free audio via Mixlr just like your neighbors to the south.
UK & Ireland
Viewers in the UK and Ireland can subscribe to FloRacing to watch live. Given the time difference, you will likely rely heavily on the Video on Demand (VOD) replays the next morning. It’s a great way to start your Sunday without staying up till late.
Mainland Europe
FloRacing is also accessible throughout most of Mainland Europe. The main hurdle here is device compatibility; while the web player works universally, the availability of specific smart TV apps (like Roku or Vizio) might vary by territory. Check your local app store to see what’s native to your device.
Australia & New Zealand
With so many Aussie and Kiwi drivers crossing over to race in the States, the interest here is enormous. FloRacing holds the rights here as well. Like European fans, you will probably be watching morning-after replays due to time zones, but the platform is designed for precisely that.
Asia & Middle East
FloRacing is generally available globally, including in Asia and the Middle East. If you cannot find the FloSports app in your local TV’s app store, the web player on a laptop connected via HDMI is your most reliable backup.
Live vs Replays vs Highlights
The good news is you can watch USAC Racing live, replays, or highlights whenever you want.
Live Window
A standard USAC race night on FloRacing involves Hot Laps and Qualifying leading into Heat Races, followed by the B-Mains (semi-features), and ending with the Feature event. During weeks like Indiana Sprint Week, you might get multi-camera options, but for standard nights, expect a solid broadcast feed.
Full Replays & Condensed Cuts
Full replays are posted inside the specific Event Hub on FloRacing shortly after the checkered flag drops. For a quicker fix, YouTube is the place for condensed highlights and select segments, usually uploaded the following day.
Free Audio & Stick-to-Live Tips
If you are commuting and can’t watch, fire up Mixlr.
Pro Tip: If you are waiting to watch the replay, mute your social media notifications! USAC’s social teams are fast with updates, and there is nothing worse than having a photo finish spoiled by a push notification before you load the video.
Devices & TV Setup
Worried about which device to use? You’ve got lots of options:
Mobile & Tablet
The FloSports app is available on both iOS and Android. It allows you to enable notifications for when your favorite series goes live. This is essential for keeping track of rain delays or schedule changes.
Casting & AirPlay
If you don’t have a smart TV app, casting is also an option. You can use Chromecast or AirPlay directly from the mobile app to your TV.
If it’s not working, ensure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network (2.4GHz vs 5GHz matters!). Force-quitting and relaunching the app often clears connection hang-ups.
Smart TVs & Streaming Sticks
Native apps are available for Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, and now Samsung, Vizio, and LG televisions. This covers the majority of modern setups.
Desktop/Laptop
The web player on FloRacing.com is the universal fallback. If your smart TV is acting up, an HDMI cable from your laptop to your TV is the best way to ensure a high-quality stream without buffering.
Pricing, Plans & Free Options
To access a world-class USAC racing experience, you need to select the right plan based on your viewing habits. The following breakdown gives a guide on the costs and flexibility:
FloRacing Subscription
Let’s talk numbers. As of 2026, the standard offer for an annual plan goes for approximately $12.99/month, billed as a lump sum upfront at about $150. Alternatively, a monthly-only option is available (around $39.99/month), which is significantly more expensive in the long run.
Multi-Stream/Household Viewing
Planning a watch party? FloSports allows you to watch up to 12 streams simultaneously on devices connected to the same Wi-Fi network or IP address. This is a game-changer for multi-screen setups where you want the race on the TV and onboard cameras on your tablet.
Free Options
If a subscription isn’t in the cards right now, you can still follow the action. USAC on YouTube provides high-quality highlights, and Mixlr offers live audio commentary at zero cost.
Troubleshooting & Stream Quality
If you’re having trouble with your stream, we have some tips for you.
Buffering/Resolution
Buffering is the enemy. Aim for a stable broadband connection. If you are on a PC and seeing stuttering, try disabling hardware acceleration in your browser settings – it’s a common fix for video glitches. On Roku, if you experience lag, try casting from your phone instead.
Delay vs Live
Streaming (OTT) always has a slight delay compared to real life. If you are live betting, this is critical info. Close background apps, use a wired Ethernet connection for your TV device if possible, and avoid looking at Twitter/X to avoid spoilers.
Access Errors
If you get an ‘Access Denied’ error, check your subscription status first. If that’s clear, try the web player. Ensure you aren’t logged in on too many devices at different locations. It can trigger ‘Couch Rights’ restrictions.

The Fox No. 53 will contest a concentrated 30-race USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car slate in 2026 with C.J. Leary sharing the seat for events focused in Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. Leary’s Sprint Car debut in the No. 53 is scheduled for April 3 at Red Hill Raceway in Sumner, Illinois and April 4 at Paragon Speedway in Indiana for the Chuck Amati Classic; when he is not in the No. 53 he plans to run other USAC events in a different ride.
Leary will split his 2026 USAC program with a full-time Silver Crown ride for Team AZ-Petty-Rossi/Curb-Agajanian, piloting the No. 21 DRC/Stanton-powered car in an 11-race dirt-and-pavement Silver Crown schedule that opens May 8-9 at the Kansas State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson. Teammate Mario Clouser will drive the No. 20 DRC/Stanton-powered entry; Clouser, from Auburn, Illinois, drove for three teams in 2025, led 42 of 100 laps at the Kansas State Fairgrounds, earned his first IRP pole and compiled podiums en route to a career-best fifth in the 2025 Silver Crown standings. Team AZ confirmed primary technical support from DRC/Stanton and commercial backing from Avanti Windows & Doors, Curb Records, Pella and AMSOIL for the 2026 Silver Crown campaign.
Leary brings strong USAC credentials to both programs: he is the 2019 USAC National Sprint Car champion, has 24 career USAC series wins and entered the announcement with a streak of 321 consecutive USAC feature starts dating to 2017, six starts short of Justin Grant’s benchmark of 327. His Silver Crown résumé includes a runner-up finish in the 2025 championship with two late-season wins at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park (pavement) and Du Quoin State Fairgrounds (dirt).
The Fox No. 53 program is tied to the Fox family and the Gohr Racing legacy, with longtime mechanic Galen Fox involved. The car carries 19 career USAC National Sprint Car feature wins—two by Brad Fox and 17 by Jon Stanbrough—which the No. 53 team will look to add to during the concentrated 2026 slate.
Eldora Speedway will host the 10th #LetsRaceTwo Presented by LGMG doubleheader on May 15–16, pairing the USAC National Sprint Cars and the World of Outlaws at the half-mile dirt oval in Rossburg, Ohio. Promoters bill the rare consecutive-night format as a unique draw, with each show paying $12,000 to the winner. USAC action will stream on FloRacing and World of Outlaws coverage will be available on DirtVision.
Several drivers plan cross-series double duty. Defending USAC #LetsRaceTwo winner Brady Bacon will drive the Chris Dyson No. 20 in USAC and the TKH Motorsports No. 21 for WoO. Logan Seavey will run the Abacus Racing No. 57 and the CB Industries–Spire Motorsports No. 87. Karter Sarff will make his WoO start in the Chase Briscoe No. 5B. Steven Snyder Jr. and Jakeb Boxell will make USAC debuts in the CB Industries–Spire No. 87 and the No. 54, owned by Matt Westfall, respectively. C.J. Leary brings a streak of 326 consecutive USAC feature starts in the Fox Brothers Racing No. 53, two starts shy of Justin Grant’s record of 328. Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports arrives off consecutive USAC wins and plans to enter two cars.
Kyle Cummins leads the USAC standings with 760 points and is seeking Eldora redemption after a 0.016-second loss in night one of #LetsRaceTwo 2024. On the WoO side, David Gravel leads the tour by 88 points; expected entries include Donny Schatz, Sheldon Haudenschild, Rico Abreu, Tyler Courtney and Carson Macedo. Eldora has hosted World of Outlaws racing since April 16, 1978, and across 47 seasons the series has raced there 242 times, missing only 2020. The Speedway is one of three tracks with more than 200 WoO nights and currently trails Williams Grove by a single appearance. A total of 51 drivers have won WoO races at Eldora, and six drivers have reached double-digit WoO wins there: Steve Kinser (41), Sammy Swindell (30), Donny Schatz (18), Doug Wolfgang (15), Joey Saldana (13) and Dave Blaney (10). Donny Schatz holds the most WoO wins during #LetsRaceTwo weekends with six. The World of Outlaws will return to Eldora on July 17–18 for the 43rd Kings Royal, which carries a $200,000 winner’s purse.
The USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship will headline two Midwest dirt events this spring: the Avanti Windows & Doors Corn Belt Clash Night #1 at Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa, and a two-night stop at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg/New Weston, Ohio. Both venues are half-mile dirt ovals, and Eldora is scheduled for Friday–Saturday, May 15–16 as part of the #LetsRaceTwo weekend. Knoxville details conflict across sources: Source 1 lists the Knoxville card on May 29 with 360 winged sprints and a $10,000 winner payout, while Source 2 lists May 30 with 410 winged sprints and a $15,000 winner payout. Both sources agree the Knoxville program is co-sanctioned by the USAC Midwest Racing Association, list pits opening at 3:30 p.m. CT and gates at 5:30 p.m. CT, and describe two-lap qualifying and heat races with a possible 10-lap C-Main and 12-lap semi leading to a longer feature; Source 1 describes a 25-lap feature with inversion rules to set front rows and a 24-starter field, and Source 2 describes an 8-lap heat format with a top-6 inversion and a 30-lap feature that starts 24 cars using defined transfer procedures. Because the date, car class and winner payout conflict between sources, verify final details with the track or USAC.
Eldora details are consistent across sources: gates open at 4:00 p.m., hot laps begin at 6:00 p.m. and racing starts at 7:30 p.m. each night. The USAC format at Eldora is two-lap qualifying, inverted heat races and a 30-lap feature with 24 starters. Kirk Spridgeon is listed as race director for Eldora, and Eldora’s winner payout is listed at $12,000.
Common prize, points and entry information is the same for both events: the event winner will receive 70 championship points, and payouts and points will be paid through 24th place. Entry fees are $30 for USAC members and $40 for non-members, with USAC membership required to earn championship points and contingency awards. Advance tickets are available at KnoxvilleRaceway.com; Eldora advance prices list general admission $35 and reserved $40 for ages 14+, with children pricing noted, and Eldora pit passes are $45 per night or $90 for two days. Both events will be streamed live on FloRacing, with live audio available via the USAC app and Mixlr and live timing via MyRacePass and Race Monitor; the mandatory driver radio frequency is reported as 464.5500.
After a breakout 2025 season and winning the USAC National Most Improved Driver award, 22-year-old Hayden Reinbold of Gilbert, Arizona, will contest the full 29-race USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship in 2026. He will drive the Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports No. 19AZ entry and has returned to full-time USAC National Midget competition for 2026. The campaign will open April 24-25 at Kokomo Speedway with the Kokomo Grand Prix.
Reinbold’s 2025 season produced his first USAC National Midget victory in September at Eldora’s 4-Crown Nationals, his 101st national start, where he also recorded his first fast qualifying time. He finished the year 11th in the standings with two top-five and seven top-ten results, and USAC named him the National Most Improved Driver, the first Arizona to earn the honor since Jerry Coons Jr. in 2001.
Reinbold began his USAC National Midget career in 2020 as a 16-year-old at Tulsa’s Port City Raceway. Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports calls the 2026 full-season effort a step up in commitment and ambition, seeking stronger results across the USAC National Midget tour as Reinbold builds on the extra seat time that drove his 2025 improvement.

After a breakout 2025 season and winning the USAC National Most Improved Driver award, 22-year-old Hayden Reinbold of Gilbert, Arizona, will contest the full 29-race USAC NOS Energy Drink Midget National Championship in 2026. He will drive the Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports No. 19AZ entry and has returned to full-time USAC National Midget competition for 2026. The campaign will open April 24-25 at Kokomo Speedway with the Kokomo Grand Prix.
Reinbold’s 2025 season produced his first USAC National Midget victory in September at Eldora’s 4-Crown Nationals, his 101st national start, where he also recorded his first fast qualifying time. He finished the year 11th in the standings with two top-five and seven top-ten results, and USAC named him the National Most Improved Driver, the first Arizona to earn the honor since Jerry Coons Jr. in 2001.
Reinbold began his USAC National Midget career in 2020 as a 16-year-old at Tulsa’s Port City Raceway. Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports calls the 2026 full-season effort a step up in commitment and ambition, seeking stronger results across the USAC National Midget tour as Reinbold builds on the extra seat time that drove his 2025 improvement.
