The first of two Outlaw weekends in Illinois will be the return of the Illini 100 on Saturday and Sunday, April 1-2, at Farmer City (Ill.) Raceway. Fans will be able to renew their seats to the event beginning Tuesday, Sept. 8, through Friday, Oct. 2. Tickets will then go on sale Monday, Oct. 5, for the big early season event.

In May, the World of Outlaws Late Models will return Saturday and Sunday, May 28-29, to The Bullring at Tyler County Speedway for the Fifth Annual Jackpot 100 in Middlebourne, W.Va.
