BATAVIA, Ohio – Recently, the announcement was made by Knoxville Raceway that the remainder of its season, including the Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals, had been canceled due to COVID-19.

Sept. 17-18 will feature two complete shows, with 30-lap A-Main events paying $7,000-to-win. On Saturday, Sept. 19 there will be B-Mains to complete the lineup for the 80-lap Al Belt Custom Homes I-80 Nationals A-Main paying $30,000-to-win. There will also be a $2,000-to-win Non-Qualifier race.
