The World of Outlaws Late Models brought a $12,000-to-win, 40-lap feature to I-94 EMR Speedway in Fergus Falls, turning the Otter Tail County dirt oval into a Wednesday-night regional draw. The Fergus Falls Frenzy at 2001 W Fir Ave also put local ticket sales, track parking and race-day traffic at the center of the event.
Adult general-admission tickets were listed at $30 in advance and $35 on race day. Child admission cost $10 for ages 6 through 12, while children 5 and under were admitted free. Reserved trackside parking was listed at $30, and fans who stayed home could watch the race live on DIRTVision.
The main event was scheduled for 40 laps and was joined by support classes from WISSOTA Midwest Mods and WISSOTA Street Stock. I-94 EMR Speedway’s 2026 schedule listed the World of Outlaw Late Models as its next event for Wednesday, June 24, reinforcing the track’s place on the series’ northern swing through northern Minnesota.
The World of Outlaws’ track listings showed recent stops at I-94 EMR Speedway in 2024 and 2025, evidence of an established relationship between the series and the Fergus Falls venue. MyRacePass lists the track as a 3/8-mile, high-banked dirt oval with an elevation of 1,181 feet, details that help explain why the speedway continues to land marquee late-model dates.
The track also built weather insurance into the night. I-94 Speedway, Inc. said it had had “unfortunate luck” with Mother Nature in recent years and set a rain date for Thursday, June 25, if Wednesday’s program could not be completed. That backup plan underscored how much the event mattered to the speedway after previous weather disruptions, and how much the Thursday slot could matter if crews had to carry the show over.
