In 2025, Kasey Kahne, a former NASCAR driver, will make an exciting comeback to the High Limit Racing series. Kahne has remained a major force in the dirt track racing industry since his final NASCAR Cup Series appearance in 2018. Co-owned by Kyle Larson of NASCAR, the series is establishing itself in the dirt racing market. Kahne will contribute a plethora of success and experience to the upcoming season. In addition to his 18 NASCAR Cup Series victories, he has an outstanding record that includes more than 70 career open-wheel victories and a 2000 USAC National Midget Series Championship.
In 2023, he even earned the distinguished honor of being named among the NASCAR 75 Greatest Drivers. Despite closing his NASCAR chapter, he stayed committed to dirt track racing and contributed significantly as a team owner in 2024. His team, Kasey Kahne Racing, recently celebrated a triumph with Brad Sweet clinching the 2024 championship. The presence of Eric Prutzman, an accomplished crew chief with an enviable record of six national sprint car championships, will serve as a tremendous asset for Kahne in upcoming races.
The increase in excitement surrounding the series is shown in the plans for the 2025 season opener scheduled to take place at The Dirt Track at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where Kahne and his team will take center stage. This event, which runs concurrently with a major NASCAR race on the adjacent track, presents a convergence of racing worlds. The 2025 calendar promises an array of high-profile events, including the Joker’s Jackpot at Eldora Speedway and the 71st Gold Cup Race of Champions at Silver Dollar Speedway. Such events pose the potential for six-figure payouts. Furthermore, the series’ integration into fresh circuits across 20 states illustrates its ambition to extend its foothold. By introducing new destinations within Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Wisconsin, and Kentucky, High Limit Racing will expand its national presence.
