Belleville, IL. (3/2/26) - Officials with POWRi Racing, the NOW600 Series, and T2 Promotions have announced the postponement of the Milestone Home Services Outlaw Nationals at Port City Raceway due to prolonged precipitation and severe weather conditions forecasted throughout the Tulsa area this week.
After extensive evaluation of forecast models, projected rainfall totals, facility conditions, and travel considerations for teams coming from across the country, the decision was made to act proactively. With weather patterns showing continued instability and many competitors preparing for long-distance travel, officials determined postponement was the most responsible path forward to protect the integrity of the event.
The Milestone Home Services Outlaw Nationals will now be held May 7–9 at Macon Speedway, replacing the previously scheduled Bullring Blitz while elevating the weekend within the POWRi/NOW600 RaceTech Titanium $uper $eries.
“This was an extremely difficult decision,” said Talin Turner of POWRi and T2 Promotions. “The Outlaw Nationals means a great deal to me personally and professionally. It’s where I got my start in promoting, and it carries a lot of weight. But when you look at the weather trends, the projected rainfall, and the number of teams traveling long distances, the responsible move was to make the call early. We want this event contested at the level it deserves, not fighting conditions outside of our control.”
The Outlaw Nationals will assume the Bullring Blitz date on the 2026 calendar with an increased purse structure and expanded stature, ensuring the event maintains its prestige and competitive impact.
Practice will be held Thursday, May 7, followed by Preliminary Night on Friday, May 8, and Championship Night on Saturday, May 9.
The restructured Milestone Home Services Outlaw Nationals will feature enhanced purses across all divisions:
Wing Outlaws — $10,000-to-Win
Non-Wing Outlaws — $5,000-to-Win
Restricted — $2,000-to-Win
Jr. Sprints — $500-to-Win
“Our objective was simple: make sure the Outlaw Nationals happens in 2026,” said Terry Mattox of the NOW600 Series. “After researching every realistic option on the calendar, moving the event to Macon Speedway in May provided the strongest opportunity to preserve the event’s prestige while delivering the payout and program our racers expect and deserve.”
This adjustment serves strictly as a 2026 scheduling necessity. The Milestone Home Services Outlaw Nationals will return to Port City Raceway in 2027. POWRi and NOW600 extend sincere appreciation to the ownership and staff at Port City Raceway for their continued partnership, cooperation, and long-term commitment to the event. Officials look forward to returning to Port City Raceway for future events in 2026 and beyond.
All entry and reserved parking purchases for the originally scheduled March 5–7 event at Port City Raceway will be fully refunded. Competitors will be required to re-register through the Macon Speedway MyRacePass registration portal, found online at https://www.myracepass.com/series/1572/registrations/12785.

Officials also expressed sincere gratitude to Milestone Home Services for their continued investment in grassroots racing.
