World of Outlaws Sprint Cars

World of Outlaw Sprint Car Series started off rough and ready to race with no wings and little protection for the drivers other than a role cage. As early as the 1970's wings and sideboards were added to the cars for added down force, greater control turning into corners and aborbing some of the impact for the driver when are air-borne or crash.

World of Outlaw was formed in 1978 and is the premier dirt sprint car racing series across the USA now with 75 race dates a year including Canada. Famous tracks featured in the series included the Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio, the Knoxville Raceway in Knoxville, Iowa and Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. Each August, the Knoxville Raceway holds the paramount sprint car event, the Knoxville Nationals
