Concord, NC— November 1, 2009—The third annual World of Outlaws World Finals will take center stage on Monday (November 2) at Noon Eastern on “On Track On Radio,” hosted by veteran motorsports journalist Tim Tuttle for Sports Illustrated and SI.com along with fellow longtime racing reporter Steve Page on RaceFanRadio.com. World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series driver Jason Meyers will join the pair along with current World of Outlaws Late Model Series point leader Steve Francis, as the World of Outlaws will be the main feature of the hour-long show.

Meyers will help preview the sprint car portion of the upcoming World Finals for the World of Outlaws at The Dirt Track @ Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina, November 5-7 and talk about the battle for the series championship that has him just 19 markers behind three-time and defending series champion Donny Schatz.
