It is RACE DAY for the MARS Late Model Championship powered by FK Rod Ends and the MARS Modified Championship powered by Summit Racing Equipment!

The destination of the night will be the Fairbury American Legion Speedway for the Illinois Dirt Shootout! Tonight both tours race for the largest purse of the season, as the MARS Late Models will battle for $15,000-to-win, and a total purse of over $50,000. The MARS Modifieds will race 40 laps for $5,000-to-win, with a total purse of over $20,000.

Last night night at Farmer City Raceway it was Mike Spatola picking up his first MARS victory since 2022 over a hard-charging Jason Feger and MARS Late Model Midwest Sheet Metal Company point leader Ryan Unzicker.

Another stout field of MARS Late Models and MARS Modifieds are expected tonight, and with temperatures dropping to the 80's today, a great crowd is expected to be in attendance. This will be the only night of stock-car racing at FALS in the month of September. Hot laps are now set to hit the speedway at 6:00 P.M. this evening. We hope to see you at the track!

It is RACE DAY for the MARS Late Model Championship powered by FK Rod Ends!

Tonight the tour heads to Farmer City Raceway for the Chuckwagon Outpost 40, where we will help Farmer City close the curtain on "Friday night lights" for 2026! MARS Late Models will battle 40 laps for $5,000-to-win.

Last night it was Ryan Unzicker sweeping the night at LaSalle Speedway & Event Center and picking up both of the "Twisted 25" main events in addition to over $10,000 for his efforts. Another talented field of drivers are expected to gather tonight as it is night 2 of 3 on the weekend for the tour, with many additional travelers in the area to compete against the MARS regulars and Farmer City faithful.

Hot laps are scheduled to hit the speedway at 6:30 P.M. this evening. We hope to see you at the track!
