BOONE, Iowa—Fresh off the heels of the Prairie Dirt Classic, the World of Outlaws CASE Construction Equipment Late models continue their Summer of Money with four races in five days.
The week starts with a return to Boone Speedway in Boone, IA, for the 50-lap, $15,000-to-win, Hawkeye 50 on Tuesday, Aug. 1.
Then, the Series spends three days at the prestigious Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, WI, for the 36th annual USA Nationals. Drivers will battle in a new format in 2023, with three nights of points-paying races on tap for the first time.

On Thursday, Aug. 3, and Friday Aug. 4, competitors will wage war in 30-lap, $6,000-to-win Features. An “every lap matters” format will be used as drivers accumulate points over the first two nights. The 16 drivers with the most points after Friday’s Feature will line up in the first eight rows of the 100-lap, $50,000-to-win, USA Nationals finale on Saturday, Aug. 5.
The World of Outlaws CASE Late Models have raced four times at Boone Speedway in the last two seasons, and four drivers have reached Victory Lane.
In the three races that ran at the 1/3-mile oval in 2021, Cade Dillard and Shannon Babb split twin Features on the first night before Bobby Pierce earned his then-second career World of Outlaws win on night two.
Last season, Jonathan Davenport led every lap of the inaugural Hawkeye 50, holding off defending Series champion Dennis Erb Jr. for the win.
