Texas Motor Speedway has reached agreement with motorsports promotor X.CELERATED of Silver Bay, Minn.-based for 18 nights of sprint car, Super Late Model and Modified racing in 2021 at the Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track.
The exciting schedule includes The Revival in February for Modified cars, a NASCAR All-Star Race sprint car companion event in June, a Monday night summer series, and a $50,000-to-win Super Late Model extravaganza in September.
“The Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track is an incredible opportunity” stated X.CELERATED CEO Barry Braun. “Dirt track racers, teams, and fans love this facility and yearn to race at this mecca. We believe our commitment to a robust schedule with grassroots sensibilities and customer service will help this place thrive.”
X.CELERATED, which revitalized the Duel in the Desert at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in November 2020 and launched the upcoming March 15-20 Bristol Dirt Nationals at Bristol Motor Speedway, has committed to a multi-year strategic business agreement with the half-mile Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track.
“The Texas Motor Speedway Dirt Track has hosted some of the best dirt racing in Texas since the first race in 2000 so we’re proud to be working with Barry Braun and everyone at X.CELERATED to bring local fans a full schedule of competition in 2021,” said Texas Motor Speedway President and General Manager Eddie Gossage.
The 2021 schedule kicks off Feb. 18-20 with “The Revival”. Open (Outlaw) Modifieds, Limited Modifieds, Factory Stocks, Hornets, and Eco Mods will race with complete shows on Friday and Saturday. Tickets go on sale Feb. 1 at https://racexr.com/. Additional information, including entry and parking, will be released at that time.
The Dirt Track will fire off NASCAR All-Star Weekend with the All Star Sprint Car Showdown, June 10-11, featuring the Bandits Outlaw Sprint Series and supporting classes.
A major commitment for local racers will be take place from June through August with the Texas Monday Series. Working as a good neighbor by not booking on top of local schedules, the Texas Monday Series seeks to highlight the best of the area with an aggressive production and unprecedented promotion of the series racers. Open Modifieds, Limited Modifieds, and Factory Stocks will be the regulars highlighted with a once-a-month invitational class. The dates for the Texas Monday Series are June 21, 28, July 5, 19, 26, and August 9, 16, and 23.
The 2021 schedule will conclude with a bang as the Texas Dirt Nationals, scheduled for September 13-18, 2021, rock the Fort Worth facility featuring a number of grassroots classes and capped by a $50,000-to-WIN Super Late Model crown jewel event on September 18, 2021.
