Reaching speeds in excess of 160 mph, Sprint Cars are easily identified by the big “wings” on top of each car that keep them planted to the racetrack and prevents them from flipping. The combination of high speed and dirt surfaces can often result in spectacular collisions and crashes.

Additionally, players can be approached by sponsors for financial assistance allowing for the purchase of vehicle upgrades and repairs. The Quick Race Mode allows players to quickly and easily jump into a single event, while Practice Mode assists the casual gamer in developing their driving skills for the more in-depth and realistic game modes.

About World Of Outlaws
Dubbed “outlaws” in the early years because there were no rules governing when, where or how they raced, World of Outlaws has evolved into one of the largest racing series in the United States. The 2001 season was the 24th for the Pennzoil World of Outlaws series and featured 65 events, over 104 race dates and held in 25 states with a total of $10 million plus in prize money.
