NASCAR driver Carson Hocevar will also race a dirt late model
In late April, NASCAR is heading to the 2.5-mile of Talladega Superspeedway. NASCAR Cup Series drivers will take the green flag on Sunday April 26th.
During that race weekend, Carson Hovevar will be pulling double-duty. He’ll be heading to the dirt track across the street.
On April 24 and 25th, the Talladega Short Track is hosting the Alabama Gang 100. The track will host the World of Outlaws Late Model Series in the event.
Friday’s event will pay $12,000 to the feature winner. Saturday’s feature will see a check for $25,000 handed out to the winner.
Hocevar stated, “Heard they’re racing dirt late models across the street from Talladega while NASCAR is in town.”
He confirmed, “this is a ‘I’m racing this race, please buy a t shirt from our t shirt trailer at the dirt track’ if that wasn’t clear.”
Spire Motorsports has previously fielded a dirt late model for Hocevar. The Longhorn Chassis machine has previously been sponsored by Chili’s.
Will other NASCAR drivers join the field? Chase Elliott has previously raced at the same track as recently as 2023.
The Talladega Short Track is a 1/3-mile dirt oval. The entrance to the facility is directly across the street from Talladega Superspeedway.
