2022 DIRTcar Nationals & Sunshine Nationals Dates Set

BARBERVILLE, Fla. – DIRTcar and World of Outlaws officials have announced the dates for the 2022 editions of the DIRTcar Nationals and the Sunshine Nationals.

The Sunshine Nationals, featuring the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series, will kick off the late model season on Jan. 20-22.

Then, after a couple weeks of more exciting dirt racing around Florida, the 51st DIRTcar Nationals will commence, Feb. 8-19, featuring the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars, DIRTcar UMP Modifieds, All Star Circuit of Champions, DIRTcar Late Models, World of Outlaws Late Models and the Super DIRTcar Series.

“Dirt racing in Florida is going to be bigger and better than ever at the start of 2022,” said Brian Carter, World of Outlaws and DIRTcar CEO. “Demonstrating our commitment to our fans and drivers, we’ve coordinated with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series so there is no overlap of events, allowing fans to enjoy the best Late Model drivers in the world battle throughout Florida on a weekly basis from January to February.

“Then, that will lead into the always action-packed DIRTcar Nationals at the beginning of February where the best sprint car, late model, modified and big-block drivers will compete for the must-have golden gator trophies.”
