For the final time in 2022, the Northeast region awaits the World of Outlaws CASE Construction Equipment Late Model Series for three nights of action.
Three 40-lap, $10,000-to-win Features, are on tap and a potential $30,000 payday if a driver can sweep the weekend.
A trip to the iconic Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, PA, kicks off the tripleheader on Friday, Aug. 19, as the Series makes its fifth stop at the facility. The track’s 410 Sprint Car division is also on the card at the half-mile oval.

The three-night weekend finishes with the Series’ first stop at Tri-City Raceway Park in Franklin, PA, since 2010, on Sunday, Aug. 21. The track’s Mini Stocks will also be a part of the highly anticipated return of the World of Outlaws CASE Late Models.

Here are the top storylines this weekend:
TIME IS RUNNING OUT: When the Series travels to Williams Grove, only 18 events remain on the 2022 schedule. Time is running out for Max Blair and Tanner English if they want to catch Dennis Erb Jr. in the chase for the championship.
Erb enters the weekend 164 points ahead of English and 184 points ahead of Blair.
In three races in Pennsylvania this season, the Carpentersville, IL driver has a win at Marion Center Raceway, a second at Bloomsburg Fair Raceway, and a ninth at Port Royal Speedway. He also finished fourth when the Series visited Sharon in May.
BLAIR’S BACKYARD: Even though time is running out for Blair in the battle for the Series championship, he has a chance to cut English’s 20-point lead in the race for Rookie of the Year
The Centerville, PA driver returns to his home turf this weekend, racing at three tracks where he’s found success.
Blair has two non-Series wins at Tri-City, along with top-10s at Williams Grove and Sharon within the last year.
TRI-CITY BULLDOG: Of the full-time drivers on the tour, Shane Clanton, the 2015 Series champion, has two Series victories at Tri-City.
The “Georgia Bulldog” scored his wins at Tri-City in 2006 and 2008.
He’s also been successful at Sharon Speedway recently, as he narrowly missed a win at the Ohio track in May, finishing second after leading most of the Feature.
SHARON TAKEOVER: No driver has been better at Sharon Speedway in the last two seasons than Ryan Gustin.
The Marshalltown, IA driver has made both of his starts at the 3/8-mile facility count with a first and second.
Gustin scored his first career World of Outlaws CASE Late Model Feature win in May, finding redemption after a second-place finish to 2021 NASCAR Cup champion Kyle Larson last August.
THE MAILMAN RETURNS: Sharon Speedway kicks off a five-race World of Outlaws stretch for Devin Moran, as he plans on joining the Series this weekend and at Davenport Speedway for the Quad Cities 150 (Aug. 25-27).
Despite having five top-10s in 10 starts with the Series in 2022, he’s yet to find Victory Lane.
He hasn’t finished better than fifth in the four races he’s started outside of Volusia Speedway Park this season. However, one of those fifth-place finishes was at Sharon on Memorial Day weekend.
If the Dresden, OH driver takes the checkered flag, it’ll be his ninth career Series triumph and fifth in the last two seasons.
