50th DIRTcar Nationals Hot Laps Moved up to 2PM on Sunday, Feb. 7

The 50th DIRTcar Nationals at Volusia Speedway Park on Sunday, Feb. 7, will kick off at 2pm(ET), starting with Hot Laps for the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars and DIRTcar UMP Modifieds.

With a fairly significant football game taking place that Sunday night, DIRTcar and Volusia officials will open the grandstands at 1pm before going into Hot Laps at 2pm and racing at 3pm, ensuring fans can have the best of both worlds if they choose.

The Outlaws — known as The Greatest Show on Dirt — will race in a $10,000-to-win Feature while the UMP Modifieds will be racing for a chance to qualify for The Gator Championship the following night at Volusia.

For the remainder of the event from Tuesday, Feb. 2, to Saturday, Feb. 6, and Monday, Feb. 8, to Saturday, Feb. 13, fans can enter the grandstands at the World’s Fastest Half-Mile dirt track nightly at 5pm(ET) with opening ceremonies and racing at 6:50pm.

While the best way to catch all of the action is in the track’s practically brand-new grandstands, the racing will also air around the world on DIRTVision as part of the broadcast giant’s Fast Pass.

Tickets for the 50th DIRTcar Nationals are available online, with a schedule featuring Sprint Cars, Dirt Late Models, UMP Modifieds and Big Block Modifieds:
