Twenty-five years in the making, the long-awaited can’t-miss 25th Anniversary USMTS Silver Jubilee happens at the Mason City Motor Speedway with the best of the best in dirt modified racing battling for the largest pool of prize money in series history.
The event takes place Wednesday through Saturday, Aug. 16-19, at the North Iowa Action Track in Mason City, Iowa.
Racers in the Summit USMTS National Championship presented by RacinDirt choose either Wednesday or Thursday night to qualify, with the top six finishers each night locked into Saturday's finale.
Wednesday will be qualifying for the inside row and Thursday is for middle-row starters. Drivers who purchase a “mulligan” when registering for the event can try again Friday, with the top six from that night’s feature filling the outside lane of Saturday's main event.
Saturday’s 78-lap, $25,000-to-win championship event will get the green flag with 33 cars starting three-wide on the lightning-fast 1/3-mile clay oval.

With the purchase of their entry fee, each competitor get one free ticket into the drawing for some incredible prizes that will be given away during the week. If a racer purchase a mulligan, he or she gets another ticket into the same drawing.
Tickets will also be sold for more chances to win great gifts. On the top of that list will be a brand new USMTS 415 spec motor built by Stoen Race Engines valued at $25,000.
Extra tickets for the drawing will be on sale at $20 per ticket or six for $100. Dozens of supporters have stepped up to make this show explode, and many more are expected to jump on board before and during the event.
Competitors will earn points for each event they are in from time trials to heats, B-mains and A-mains, and the top six each night will be locked in for Saturday's $25,000-to-win main event that will pay no less than a record $2,500 to start.
