FORT WORTH, Texas \u2013 Two-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion Kyle Busch and son Brexton Busch are confirmed to participate in the inaugural C. Bell\u2019s Micro Mania micro sprint car event Sept. 21-24 at Li\u2019l Texas Motor Speedway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The winningest driver in Texas Motor Speedway history will put it all on the line at the newly converted 1\/5-mile dirt oval in the week leading in to the NASCAR Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500 weekend at Texas Motor Speedway.<\/p>\n

The elder Busch competes in micro sprint racing when he can find time between his NASCAR responsibilities as both driver for Joe Gibbs Racing and owner of Kyle Busch Motorsports. Brexton, 7, began racing in 2020 and has racked up numerous victories in multiple types of race cars in North Carolina and multiple states, including a C-main win in the Tulsa (Okla.) Shootout this past January.<\/p>\n

\u201cDirt racing with Brexton the last few years has been a really cool experience for our whole family and we\u2019re always looking for new tracks to race at alongside the NASCAR schedule,\u201d said Kyle Busch. \u201cWhen Christopher approached us about the opportunity for both of us to participate in his event that\u2019s being held right on property at Texas, we we\u2019re all in. Christopher is very passionate about dirt racing and I\u2019m sure with all of the effort that he\u2019s putting into this event alongside the folks at Texas Motor Speedway that it will be an exciting one to be a part of for both the drivers and the fans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bell\u2019s Micro Mania begins with a full day of practice on Wednesday, Sept. 21, with qualifying races both Thursday and Friday (Sept. 22-23). Saturday evening\u2019s schedule will consist of mains in both the Outlaw and Junior Sprint classes with the $10,000-to-win Outlaw A-main highlighting a total event purse of $50,440.<\/p>\n

Micro sprints are smaller versions of full-sized non-wing sprint cars with side-mounted 640cc motorcycle engines that can generate 140 horsepower with similar chassis and body styles to the larger versions. Competition will take place in both the Outlaw and Junior Sprint classes.<\/p>\n

The renovation of the 1\/5-mile track, just outside the backstretch of the 1.5-mile asphalt oval, began immediately following the NASCAR All-Star Race weekend in late May with the removal of the asphalt. Upgrades will be a scoreboard, PA system, frontstretch wall\/catch fence, caution light system along with a Lil\u2019 Hoss screen, pit area amenities and a 3,500-seat temporary grandstand.<\/p>\n

The facility renovation taking place through the vision of NASCAR Cup Series driver and Norman, Oklahoma native Christopher Bell, who considers Texas Motor Speedway his home track.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m super excited about having Kyle and Brexton compete in C. Bell\u2019s Micro Mania,\u201d said Bell. \u201cAfter driving for him for several years and talking over the years about dirt racing, it\u2019s been really fun to follow Brexton\u2019s young career through go karts and now into the Junior Sprints. Kyle is a world-class driver and I am thankful he gets to compete alongside Brexton.\u201d<\/p>\n
