Only two weekends remain in the 2025 edition of the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota, as the fifth and final Illinois visit of the season lies ahead. 

The Midgets will make a two-night stay in the “Land of Lincoln” with a busy weekend supported by Honest Abe Roofing that includes a plethora of activities on and off the track for teams and fans. 

Take a look at what is coming up soon: 

Jacksonville Speedway | Honest Abe Roofing Open Wheel Showdown (Oct. 3-4) 

The Xtreme Outlaw Midgets are set to visit Jacksonville, IL, for the third year in a row as the Honest Abe Roofing Open Wheel Showdown brings two nights of action-packed racing and several off-track activities. 

On Friday, drivers and teams can enjoy post-race nourishment at the Honest Abe Roofing Cookout, which will provide food and drinks for the crews after the checkered flag waves.  

Pinewood Derby racing also returns to the Xtreme weekend in 2025 as the Honest Abe Roofing Pinewood Derby will have money up for grabs for the podium finishers. The winner will earn $300, second place will receive $150, and third place will gain $50 on Saturday, Oct. 4. 

In the history of the Xtreme Outlaw Midgets, four chapters have been written at Jacksonville, with winners including Jade Avedisian in 2022, Karter Sarff in 2023, and Zach Daum and Gavin Miller winning the 2024 season finale doubleheader.
