(: The Authority On Dirt Track Racing In The WISSOTA Region :)


Why You Should Advertise In All The Dirt! Racing News:

All The Dirt! Racing News is the single best way to reach every stock car driver in every WISSOTA division, and thousands of hardcore racing fans, with news about your products, services, and upcoming race events. It is a direct pipeline to nearly 3,000 dirt track racers in a strong racing region that encompasses Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Montana, Ontario and Manitoba.

WISSOTA is recognized nationally as a healthy, stable racing region by industry leaders. Here's more on WISSOTA:

The WISSOTA Promoters Association was founded in 1981 by eight track promoters in Wisconsin and Minnesota, with intent to offer uniform rules for the promoters and drivers involved in the Late Model division. Soon, the group decided to do the same for the growing Modified division. In 1984 a voluntary steering committee was formed to oversee the business aspects that developed and to guide the future of WISSOTA’s racing divisions. That steering committee evolved into a board of directors, and WISSOTA became incorporated in 1986. Each year, several members are elected to the WISSOTA Board of Directors at the organization’s annual meeting.

WISSOTA currently sanctions seven divisions, including Street Stocks, Mod Fours, Super Stocks, Modifieds, Midwest Limited Late Models, Modifieds, and Late Models.

In 2007 the WISSOTA program involved approximately 50 race tracks which host more than 750 weekly racing events in the region's widely recognized AMSOIL Dirt Track Series.

All The Dirt! is recognized as the “official newspaper of record” for WISSOTA racing and it’s the single best way to reach the drivers and rabid race fans across the six state, two province dirt track racing region.
