Wild and exciting winged outlaw sprint car racing will headline the two-day USCS Senoia Summer Nationals IV (2013) racing program at Senoia Raceway August 16 and 17. The United Sprint Car Series presented by K&N Filters “Outlaw Thunder” Tour (www.uscsracing.com) roars into the high-banked 3/8-mile red clay oval for the 4th annual USCS Senoia Summer Nationals.
