- Why Racing Fans Should Watch The 2024 Gateway Dirt Nationals
Heat races have an exciting feel despite only being eight laps and leaving the drivers with no margin of error.
The track is also on the smaller side, so it makes it more challenging for drivers to gain an advantage. They also have to watch out for collisions, which can pause the race and potentially get drivers out of rhythm.
