NASCAR driver Kasey Kahne to compete at Ohsweken in July

Kasey Kahne will compete in the Kool Kidz-Corr/Pak 360 Sprint Car division at the Burger Barn Northern Crate Nationals on Monday, July 25, and in the Arrow Express Six Nations Showdown featuring the World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car Series on Tuesday, July 26.

Ohsweken Speedway is located in Ohsweken, about 15km away from Brantford, Ontario.

The 36-year-old Enumclaw, Washington native has 17 NASCAR Sprint Cup series wins on his resume. Kahne’s career began on dirt tracks in the Pacific Northwest, and he has never forgotten his roots. Following success in Sprint Cars and Midgets - including a USAC National Midget series championship in 2000 - Kahne made his debut in what was then called the NASCAR Nextel Cup series in 2004.

Kahne stays involved with dirt track racing through his ownership of Kasey Kahne Racing, which fields World of Outlaws Craftsman Sprint Car series entries for Daryn Pittman and Brad Sweet.

“Ohsweken always does a great job promoting their races and I am looking forward to being a part of their event in July,” said Kahne. “It’ll be fun to race with Brad and Daryn and all the Outlaws.”

The “Greatest Show on Dirt” returns to Ohsweken on Tuesday, July 26 when the World of Outlaws Sprint Car series will contest the 10th Annual Arrow Express Six Nations Showdown, joined by DIRTcar 358 Modifieds in their only Ohsweken visit of the season, and HRW Automotive Mini Stock Twin 15’s.
