The USAC Midget tour added a pair of dates to their schedule on Wednesday morning, set for April 2 and 3.

The tour will venture to Riverside International Speedway for a non-points weekend labeled as the Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Hometown Challenge.

The NASCAR Cup Series star grew up racing at the track, nicknamed The Ditch. The event will mark the first time the tour has raced at the track since 2016.

Each night of the weekend will payout $300 to start and a $3,000 to win check at the end of the evening.

During the same weekend, the USAC Sprint Car tour is slated to race at Lawrenceburg Speedway on Saturday, being the reason why it will not pay points for the USAC Midget tour.
