The Xtreme Outlaw Midget Series presented by Toyota embarks on its third full-length national schedule in 2025, set to contest 27 races at 18 different tracks.
The Series will travel to six different states from April to November, racing for a chance at the $30,000 points championship check and $94,000 points fund, which has been increased to now reward 12 full-time drivers.
The season will open at a new location for 2025 — Farmer City Raceway in Farmer City, IL, racing alongside the World of Outlaws CASE Construction Equipment Late Model Series as part of the Illini 100 weekend, Thursday–Saturday, April 10-12 — and conclude with the Xtreme Outlaw Midget World Championship: The Kickoff to World of Outlaws World Finals at Millbridge Speedway, Nov. 3-4 where a new champion will be crowned.
