The American Racer USRA Modified Series powered by Day Motor Sports returns to the DFW Metroplex this Mother’s Day Weekend for a doubleheader of gargantuan touring outlaw modified racing on two of the area's most popular dirt-covered racetracks.

The two tracks couldn’t any more different as Friday night, May 12, will see the ARMS at the 1/4-mile dirt oval at the RPM Speedway in Crandall, Texas, before moving a mere 20 miles northwest to the legendary 1/2-mile Devil's Bowl Speedway in Mesquite, Texas.

Friday’s show at the RPM Speedway will see the pit gate open at 5 p.m. and grandstands opening at 6. Racing gets underway at 8. The American Crate Late Model Series and Junior Limiteds will round out the three-class card.

Adult grandstand tickets are $15 while military, seniors 60+ and youth ages 13-15 are $10. Kids 12 and under get in for free. Add $3 for a reserved seat. Pit passes are $35.

The RPM Speedway is located southeast of Crandall on US 175 on CR 4106 (Bud Stoy Rd. exit) to CR 4104, Crandall, TX 75114. For more information, check out rpmdirt.com or call (972) 472-3700.

The on Saturday, the Devil's Bowl Speedway hosts the American Racer USRA Modified Series with the pit gate opening at 5 p.m., grandstands opening at 6 and the first green flag at 8. The American Crate Late Model Series will once again join the action, along with Tuners.

Adult grandstand tickets are $15 while military, seniors 60+ and youth ages 13-15 are $10. Kids 12 and under get in for free. Add $3 for a reserved seat. Pit passes are $35.

The Devil’s Bowl Speedway is located 3.2 miles south of US 80 at 1711 Lawson Rd, Mesquite, TX 75181. For more information, call (972) 222-2421 or visit devilsbowl.com.

The high-banked half-mile of black clay is a unique D-shaped oval with the curve on the back straight 15 feet higher than the front. This purposely-designed aspect gives the 10,000+ seats in the grandstands an unobstructed view of the entire track.

Among those seats are 1,000 reserved seats located on the finish line and another 1,500 upper deck reserved seats available for special events. Air-conditioned suites located on the third floor of the tower are available for rent and hold up to 10 people.

The track opened in 1949 in Dallas behind the Buckner Boulevard drive-in theater before moving to its current location in Mesquite in 1968. The Devil’s Bowl Speedway hosted the first-ever World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series race in 1978.
