2026 World of Outlaws Sprint Car Schedule Sees Multiple Events Paying Over $200K to Win
The 2026 World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series schedule is certainly ambitious. After traveling to at least 40 tracks in nearly half the nation’s states and one Canadian province over 86 nights, the 2026 championship will certainly be well-earned.
The series’ 49th season will see three races paying at least $200,000 to the winner. The 43rd running of the Kings Royal at Eldora Speedway will pay the winner $200,000. Additionally, the winner of the 65th Knoxville Nationals will also receive a $200,000 champion’s check. And last but not least, the High Bank Nationals at Huset’s Speedway will pay a World of Outlaws record $300,000 to the winner.
“We’re very excited about 2026 with the schedule we’ve assembled,” said World of Outlaws Series Director Carlton Reimers. “The coast-to-coast campaign continues to bring the biggest events of the year, along with new events, new facilities, and many fan favorites. They all combine to create what promises to be another excellent season of The Greatest Show on Dirt.”
The World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series returns to five tracks in 2026 after lengthy absences. They include Nodak Speedway, Hartford Speedway, the Belleville High Banks, Dodge City Raceway Park, and Mansfield Speedway. It also will visit two race tracks that have never hosted an event before: Creek County Speedway and Texarkana 67 Speedway.
