World of Outlaws iRacing Pro Series | Race Preview | Race 1 at Volusia Speedway Park

The World of Outlaws iRacing Pro Series returns on Monday night with a refreshed 2025-26 season schedule and format. Once again, the series contains a schedule of 10 tracks with two dirt oval disciplines—split among the 410 Sprint Car in the first half, and the Super Late Model in the second—and has an open qualifying series format to allow for anyone to take part in each round of the championship. One of the biggest differences this season is the inclusion of two Tournament events at the end of each half of the season, race no. 5 and 10 on the schedule, which will not have a Pro Qualifying Series the week prior, but rather, the top point scorers over the season will be invited to participate.

For races 1 through 4, and 6 through 9, the driver roster is set each week through the Pro Qualifying Series races that are open to all iRacing members with a Class A Dirt Oval license. These qualifying races will run on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 8:00 p.m. ET, and the top-40 point scorers will be invited to the iRacing World of Outlaws Pro Series league each week for the Monday night main event. After the Monday show, the league is cleared out, and the process begins again. Points will be tracked as normal across those 10 main events to crown the series champion.

First up on the schedule is a trip down to Volusia Speedway Park. The main event will include a 35-lap feature for 22 cars that qualify in through qualifying, heat races, and last chance qualifiers. The action starts at 8:00 p.m. ET and it will be live on DIRTVision and across all of iRacing’s social media channels.

RACE FORMAT

These races feature qualifying and heat racing to determine the 22 drivers that will compete in the main race.

The top-eight qualifiers will immediately transfer to the feature. Pole winners score 25 points, second place scores 23 points, and points are paid out through the transfer spots to eighth, who will receive 17 points. When the feature begins, the top-eight will invert, with the pole sitter starting eighth and the eighth place qualifier starting on the pole.

For everyone else who does not qualify in, there will be four heat races of eight laps each, where the top-three finishers will advance forward through to the main event. Heat races also pay out points to all drivers, with the winner scoring 15 points and ninth place taking home seven points.

There will also be two 12-lap consolation races where only the winner in each will move on, but no additional points are scored.

Feature races will be 35 laps in the 410 Sprint Car section of the schedule. The Feature winner will score 100 points, making the maximum number of points on any given night 125 for a pole and Feature win.

TRACK INFO

Known as the “World’s Fastest Half Mile”, Volusia Speedway Park is a favorite stop on both the World of Outlaws and Super DIRTcar Series calendars, as well as home to the biggest DIRTcar UMP Modified race of the year, the Emil and Dale Reutimann Memorial.

Located in Barberville, Florida, the track has undergone a variety of changes since opening in 1968. Initially known as Barberville Speedway, the facility originally operated as a 1/4-mile dirt track before it was expanded to a 3/8-mile in 1969. Three years later, the track ‘grew’ to a 1/2-mile and then was paved in 1989. The track operated as a paved oval, hosting NASCAR Xfinity Series races, before it was converted back to dirt in 1997.

LAST SEASON

In the Volusia season opener a season ago, the series took on the event with the Super Late Models, and the race was won by Logan Rumsey. It’s been two years since the World of Outlaws iRacing Pro Series had an event at Volusia in the 410 Sprint Car. On that day, Alex Bergeron was victorious.
