About the event
As the sun dips below the horizon and the evening air cools, the Sun Set Special heats up the track with three divisions of pure racing excitement! The mighty 410 Non Wing Sprint Cars return to unleash their 900+ horsepower fury in the golden glow of late afternoon, transitioning to the electric atmosphere of racing under the lights. Watch these fearless drivers wrestle their winged beasts through every corner with nothing but skill and determination keeping them pointed forward—it's raw, it's intense, and it's absolutely spectacular. The UMP Modifieds bring their hard-charging style to complement the open-wheel action, while the Street Stocks prove that stock car racing delivers non-stop excitement from the first green flag to the final checkered. Three divisions, perfect racing weather, and the magical transition from daylight to darkness that makes late-season racing so special. The Sun Set Special is your chance to soak in the atmosphere, feel the cool breeze, and watch world-class racing as day becomes night. Grab a seat, settle in, and enjoy racing the way it's meant to be experienced!
