The 7th Annual Silver Dollar Nationals is set for this Thursday-Saturday, July 21st-23rd. The largest auto racing event in the state of Nebraska is co-sanctioned by the Lucas Oil Midwest Latemodel Racing Association.

It is customary for I-80 Speedway to provide some of the most thrilling, door-to-door racing action, lap after lap. Along with the nation's elite dirt late model teams, the United States Modified Touring Series will bring the best of the best in dirt modifieds to tackle the 4/10-mile oval.

On Saturday night, B-Mains for the LOLMDS/Lucas Oil MLRA, and the USMTS will be held - plus the $3,000-to-win Belt Bash non-qualifiers race. The top-three finishers of the Belt Bash have the choice of keeping their $3,000 winnings, or forfeiting their earnings to start in the main event.
