High Limit Racing announced Wednesday that it has formed a strategic alliance with FAST on Dirt, an Ohio-based regional sprint car series, continuing Ohio Sprint Speedweek for its 42nd year.

“Kyle (Larson) and I know Ohio Sprint Speedweek is a key piece of the storied history of the sport in Ohio,” co-owner of High Limit Racing, Brad Sweet, said in a release. “Aaron (Fry) has developed great relationships with teams and tracks in Ohio and we know the week and the overall ecosystem of winged sprint car racing in the area will be in good hands with him at the helm.”

The FAST series will manage all of the Ohio Sprint Speedweek events and will be supported by High Limit and its resources.

The pair of tours will also work together to build schedules that compliment one another to maximize opportunities for teams and drivers in the region, according to the release.

“For the last five years, I’ve worked to steer the FAST on Dirt Series to closely mirror the original All Star Circuit of Champions Series that was primarily Ohio based. Everyone at FAST is excited that High Limit Racing has aligned with us to move closer toward that goal,” Aaron Fry, CEO of FAST on Dirt, said in the release. “Having attended nearly every Speedweek since its inception in 1983, the opportunity to carry on this Ohio tradition is special to me on a personal level. It’s also the greatest opportunity we’ve ever been given as a series. We’re extremely grateful to Brad and Kyle and look forward to working with them moving forward.”

More details on the schedule for the week will be released at a later date. 

“It’s one of the most fun weeks of the year for a race fan,” said Larson, co-owner of High Limit Racing and a 14-time winner of Ohio Sprint Speedweek races. “Over the years, my family and I have made so many fond memories while traveling and racing all over the state. We know how important it is to the local community, and look forward to keeping the tradition alive.”
