Our 72nd season includes 29 dates of racing at the historic half-mile dirt oval on the Marion County Fairgrounds, headlined by the $195,000 to win 64th running of the NOS Energy Drink Knoxville Nationals presented by Casey’s on August 6-9.
Building up to the Knoxville Nationals will be the 35th annual Xtream powered by Mediacom 360 Knoxville Nationals presented by Great Southern Bank on July 31 through August 2 and the 13th annual Avanti Windows & Doors Capitani Classic presented by Great Southern Bank on Sunday, August 3.
The Knoxville Championship Series 410s will begin their season with the World of Outlaws on April 18 and 19. This will be a 410 sprint car only weekend and there will be an Open Practice Night for 410s on Thursday, April 17.
Our Knoxville Championship Series 360 and Pro Sprint Classes will push off their season on April 26 with the 72nd annual Pella Motors/Kraig Ford Season Opener. There will be an Open Practice Night for 410, 360 and Pro Sprints on Friday, April 25.
“We’re excited to present another fantastic schedule for our fans, teams, and partners in 2025,” said Race Director John McCoy. “We have big money for our teams to compete for this year. We know that the April dates can be unpredictable due to the weather, and we've faced some challenges with Mother Nature over the past two years. However, we're optimistic that this coming year the odds will turn in our favor.”
“It’s a true testament to our fans and dedicated team of employees that we’ve been able to retain all of our core marketing partners from 2024 into 2025,” said General Manager Jason Reed. “We’re entering our sixth year with NOS Energy Drink as the title sponsor of the Knoxville Nationals and our eleventh year with Casey’s as the presenting sponsor. Alongside many of our long-standing local partners for the Knoxville Championship Series, these sponsors recognize the value of supporting us, and our fans continue to show their appreciation by supporting them in return.”
The mid-season schedule features the USAC National Sprint Cars on May 30-31 during the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Induction weekend. The weekend of June 13-14 we will host the second two-night event with the NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series. July 5 will be the Nolan Wren Memorial Higher View Enterprises Mid-Season Championship Night.
The Knoxville Championship Series will include a point fund of over $100,000, including $20,000 to win for the 410 Class. The 360 Class pays $8,000 to win and the Pro Sprints pays $1,000 to the winner. Total point payout for the three classes is more than $150,000 in cash and another $150,000 worth of contingency prizes at the end of the season banquet, plus the Knoxville Raceway Charitable Organization (KRCO) again will provide insurance for all 2024 Knoxville point eligible drivers.
