BULLS GAP, Tenn. — The second running of the Kyle Larson Presents, FloRacing Late Model Challenge is set for April 6 at Volunteer Speedway.
The action-packed Dirt Late Model event kicks off a weekend full of dirt racing at nearby Bristol Motor Speedway.
2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Larson will once again take on a star-studded field of expected super late models entrants, along with some possible surprise entrants from the NASCAR world.
Last season, the event debuted at the famed East Tennessee oval in front of a massive crowd. Home state driver Mike Marlar topped a star-studded field at the fourth-tenths-mile oval and will be back to defend his crown in 2023.
The racing program is headlined by a $20,000-to-win / $1,000-to-start super late model feature, which boasts over $62,000 in total prize money.
Joining the night’s action will be the Sportsman division, which will contest a $1,000-to-win finale that includes a $4,600 total purse.
The super late model program will include a full slate of hot laps, qualifying, heat race and consolation race action, capped by a 50-lap finale around the East Tennessee highbanks.
Meanwhile, the Sportsman division docket includes hot laps followed by qualifying with the top-16 qualifiers locked into the feature. The balance of the 22-car grid for the night’s 20-lap finale will be determined by a consolation event.
