Knoxville Raceway Hosts Eleven FVP National Sprint League Shows in 2016

Knoxville, IA (October 13, 2015) – The FVP National Sprint League will continue its strong alliance with the Knoxville Raceway in 2016.  “The Sprint Car Capital of the World”, Knoxville Raceway, in Knoxville, Iowa will host eleven NSL events in 2016.  That will include a large two-day event July 1 and 2.  Knoxville Raceway will continue to offer their hefty $100,000+ 410 Knoxville Championship Cup Series point fund plus contingencies.  The shows will occur in conjunction with the Jackson Speedway, who will host the NSL on Friday nights.

The NSL enjoyed a successful inaugural season in 2015, and shared one thing with Knoxville Raceway…its champion.  Danny Lasoski won his tenth Knoxville Raceway track championship as well as winning the NSL title.  Knoxville hosted four NSL events in 2015.  Lasoski took two of those wins, while Terry McCarl and Justin Henderson took the others.

Knoxville Raceway will play host to a large NSL two-day event on July 1 and 2 as well.  NSL members participating in 100% of the series’ events will also be racing for more purse money next season!

The 2015 FVP National Sprint League included some of the best drivers in the world.  Among its ranks were Lasoski, seven-time Knoxville Raceway champion, Terry McCarl, two-time Knoxville champ, Brian Brown, 2014 Knoxville titlist, Ian Madsen, two-time “King of California”, Tim Kaeding, seven-time IRA champion, Bill Balog, two-time USAC sprint and midget champion, Bryan Clauson, five-time Huset’s Speedway champion, Mark Dobmeier, Knoxville one-lap track record holder, Brooke Tatnell, 2015 Knoxville Nationals World Challenge winner, Lynton Jeffrey and many more!

Knoxville will join Jackson Speedway in Jackson, Minnesota as frequent homes for the NSL in 2016.  Jackson will host twelve NSL 410 and 360 events, primarily on Friday.  The Jackson Nationals will now be run over three days, September 2-4.  This major event will include NSL 360 and 410 drivers from across the country!

Around a dozen additional events will be added to the NSL schedule.  Many of those events will be co-sanctioned with other sanctioning bodies.
