The Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota will help highlight a massive doubleheader weekend at I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway Park for the St. Louis Firecracker Faceoff, June 20-21. 

Bringing fans a plethora of excitement, both nights will feature the Xtreme Outlaw Midgets, World of Outlaws Real American Beer Late Model Series presented by DIRTVision, DIRTcar Summer Nationals Late Models, DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals, and POWRi Midgets. 

The event also serves as the halfway point of the 2025 Xtreme-POWRi Challenge Series, which will award $2,500 to the Challenge Series’ champion at the end of the year. 

Take a look at what’s coming up: 

Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway Park (June 20-21): The Pevely, MO track will host the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series for the 10th and 11th time during the St. Louis Firecracker Faceoff. It’ll be the Series’ first of two visits to the track in 2025. They’ll return in August with the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series.

The 1/3-mile dirt track hosts the Xtreme Outlaw Midgets yearly, but the Firecracker will be the first time since 2022 that the Series crosses paths with the Hell Tour. It’ll also be the second and final time this year that the Series races with the World of Outlaws Late Models. 

In 2023, Cannon McIntosh picked up his first Pevely win in the Spring while Series champion Jade Avedisian and Karter Sarff scored Ironman wins. 

Sarff, the current Xtreme-POWRi Challenge Series points leader, is the only repeat winner at I-55 with three Feature triumphs at the track when he swept the Ironman 55 in 2024. 

Both nights of the St. Louis Firecracker Faceoff reward points toward the Challenge Series, which has eight races remaining – Coles County Speedway (May 30-31), I-55, (June 20-21 and Aug. 1-2), Doe Run Raceway (Sept. 5), and Highland Speedway (Sept. 6).
