Outlaw Speedway hosts Round No. 3 of the River Valley Builders North Region for the STSS big-block/small-block Modifieds. The 50-lap affair will reward the winner with a $5,000-plus payday part of a purse totaling more than $26,000.
St. Catherines, Ontario, Canada™s Mat Williamson leads the North Region standings following his win at Accord (N.Y.) Speedway to go along with his podium finish at Orange County Fair Speedway (Middletown, N.Y.) to launch the North Region $15,000 championship chase.

Savannah, N.Y.™s Matt Sheppard who is currently fourth in North Region points won the inaugural Outlaw Showdown™ in 2016. At the time, the win was just the second of Sheppard™s STSS career.
After a one-year hiatus in 17, Sprakers, N.Y.™s Stewart Friesen won back-to-back events in the 18 and 19, the latter of which was shortened due to rain during the feature. There was no event in 20 due to New York State COVID-19 restrictions.
The 21 Outlaw Showdown™ saw a home-track favorite upset the outsiders, as Waterloo, N.Y.™s Steve Paine got his first and only career STSS win. The Hurricane™ outlasted Mike Mahaney and Anthony Perrego, leading all 50 laps for the crowd-pleasing victory.
