GRAND FORKS, N.D. (December 8, 2016) - For the 20th and 21st time in series history, the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series will return to the legendary bullring, River Cities Speedway.

The first date will come Friday, June 16th and will also feature the NLRA Late Models as a co-headliner. The second leg of the Northern Tour will come later in the year on August 18th, where the NLRA Late Models will once again share the stage with the nation’s premier Sprint Car touring series. 

2017 will mark the eighth consecutive year the "Greatest Show on Dirt" makes multiple appearances to the Grand Forks, N.D. bullring.
