World of Outlaws Craftsman Late Model Series Director Matt Curl has become the majority owner of his hometown track, Fairbury American Legion Speedway in Faribury, Illinois.
Curl and officials from the quarter-mile dirt oval made the joint announcement to the Fairbury Fair Board, which will be realigned as a pivotal step toward a new arrangement that will position Curl at the helm.
“This is exciting news for our series director,” World of Outlaws President Tom Deery said. “It’s a testament to his ability—the very reason we chose him to lead our Series. He has already played an important role in making Fairbury one of the top tracks in America, and now he will lead that anchor track into the next era.”
Curl formerly served as promoter of Fairbury American Legion Speedway and was a longtime Fairbury resident before joining the Outlaws on the road this season.
When the Series brought Curl into its fold last November, is was largely due to his impressive success as the FALS promoter, but Curl’s history with the track runs deep, having served it in countless capacities throughout his career, from official to race director.
Out on the southern edge of Fairbury, the legendary semi-banked, DIRTcar-sanctioned oval opened in 1946 and features late model, street stock, sportsman and modified racing.
Curl took the reins of the World of Outlaws Late Model Series last November.
Currently putting the final touches on the 2019 racing schedule for the World of Outlaws late models, Curl looks forward to an unprecedented season.
“My number one priority will be the series this winter,” Curl said. “We will continue to develop the 2019 schedule and work with the teams and tracks to lay the groundwork for an outstanding season.”
