It’s the Biggest Dirt Race in the World! Entering its 50th consecutive year, the World 100 is rich in Dirt Late Model History.

There’s so much history in fact, it won’t all fit on this page!  Click the link below to see a complete rundown of finishes and other statistical information from the 49-year history of the World 100…

POST-RACE TRAFFIC

 

Everyone arrives at different times throughout the week but most leave at the same time after the race. As such, parking lots and roadways can be congested. To help alleviate congestion, local authorities will be initiating a post-race traffic pattern that will get the lots emptied quicker.

Please look at the map below (click it for a printable version). Each lot will exit in a specific direction. If you find yourself going in the opposite direction that you need to be going, check out a local map of the area roads. Many roads and highways in this area are square mile blocks so getting yourself pointed in the right direction should be a breeze.
