Inside Line Promotions – JACKSON, Minn. (Aug. 29, 2016) – The biggest event of the season at Jackson Motorplex is on tap.

The 38th annual AGCO Jackson Nationals features the National Sprint League, Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour and Heartland Racing Association this Friday through Sunday.

The National Sprint League will lock the top eight drivers in combined qualifying, heat race and main event points into a pole shuffle on Sunday. All other drivers will compete on Sunday in heat races lined up straight up before a B Main determines the final A Main lineup.
