It marks the first of eight race nights at the high-banked track for ‘The Greatest Show on Dirt’ this season.

Sheldon Haudenschild, who topped the inaugural BillionAuto.com Huset’s High Bank Nationals in 2022 and who has three career World of Outlaws wins (2020, 2022 and 2024) at Huset’s Speedway is two points behind Schatz in the standings.
