The Dirt Track at Charlotte will double the amount of competition and entertainment coming to Charlotte’s world-class clay oval in May, as announced by the track.

Track officials and the World of Outlaws unveiled the Patriot Nationals, an expanded two-day event May 24-25, featuring the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Sprint Cars headlining a weekend of sprint car racing less than 24 hours before the green flag for the 60th running of the Coca-Cola 600.

Each Patriot Nationals sprint car feature pays $15,000 to win and $1,000 to start. Fans in attendance will also witness the fender-banging FUEL Racing Series on Friday and the SECA Late Models on Saturday, serving as action-packed undercards for the Patriot Nationals.

“The World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series couldn’t be more thrilled to work with The Dirt Track at Charlotte to make the Patriot Nationals come to fruition,” World of Outlaws COO Tom Deery said. “With the increased purse for both nights, the Patriot Nationals will be an amazing event for the fans and drivers during a huge weekend of racing in Charlotte.”

In addition to the two-day event, the Dirt Track, celebrating its 20th season, will again host the World of Outlaws World Finals presented by Can-Am on November 7-9.
