CONCORD, N.C. — Three new tracks have been added to the 2023 schedule for the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota, further setting the scene on a bright sophomore campaign for the nation’s newest national dirt midget racing tour.
WHAT’S NEW
The Xtreme Outlaws will now kick off a three-day weekend swing with a visit to Ohio Valley Speedway on July 28. The three-eighths-mile oval, located slightly over the Ohio/West Virginia border in Washington, W.Va., is home to weekly racing on its red clay surface, and will host midgets for the first time in 2023.
Path Valley Speedway Park will host the Xtreme Outlaws on August 11, filling the open space on the east coast Speedweek stretch, which runs August 8-12. The quarter-mile oval, located in Spring Run, Pa., hosts regular 270 & 600cc Micro Sprint racing on Saturday nights. This event, along with each of the other four Speedweek events, will be co-sanctioned by the ARDC Midgets.
Highland Speedway is the third new venue added to the 2023 Xtreme Outlaw slate on Sept. 16. The quarter-mile, hairpin-style bullring in Highland, Ill., is a staple venue for weekly DIRTcar competition, hosting Late Models, UMP Modifieds and Factory Stocks. The track also features a handful of Micro Sprint events throughout the season, and welcomes a national Midget tour in for 2023.
The Highland event replaces the Series’ appearance at Red Hill Raceway, which has since moved to Sept. 17. The midgets will now complete the three-day swing through Illinois with a trip to the four-tenths-mile, red clay oval, located in Sumner, Ill.
