Christopher Bell will get back behind the wheel of the Kreitz Racing No. 69k at Ohsweken Speedway when the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series rolls into the track next week on July 21st and 22nd.
The track made the announcement on Facebook sharing, “NASCAR star Christopher Bell is bringing his iconic team to the Six Nations Showdown at Ohsweken Speedway, adding even more excitement to an already stacked World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series event.”
This will be Bell’s first appearance this year in the Sprint Car. However, it won’t be his first time getting on the dirt. He competed in the Chili Bowl Nationals at the beginning of the year. He won his preliminary night feature and finished 8th in the Saturday night feature.
In May, he made his Super DIRTcar Series debut at Georgetown Speedway and brought home a respectable 6th place finish in a Halmar Friesen Racing prepared machine.
The last time Bell was behind the wheel of a Sprint Car was during the Joker’s Jackpot race at Eldora last year. He finished 15th in the B-Main. However, he did win in Outlaw competition earlier that year at Volusia Speedway Park. In fact, in five starts with the Outlaws in 2025, he had the one win, 2 top 5s and 2 Top 10s.
On that point, Ohsweken Speedway General Manager Clinton Geoffrey said, “Christohper doesn’t make these trips as a celebrity driver. He shows up to compete, and he shows up to win. Fans will see very quickly that he’s showing up to maintain that pristine record at our track.”
That record is a win and a second place finish when he last raced at the track in 2019.
“Christopher Bell is the kind of next level talent we are privileged to have compete at Ohsweken Speedway.” Geoffrey added. “Bringing a superstar of his calibre to our track shows the fans just how accessible and down-to-earth race car drivers can be.”
Bell is not the only NASCAR star who will be at Ohsweken for the Six Nations Showdown. Ryan Newman will also be competing in his first World of Outlaws race in a Sprint Car. Additionally, Kenny Wallace will be competing in his UMP Modified. Wallace announced on Facebook, “I am jacked up to be going up to Canada at Ohsweken Speedway. On Tuesday, July 21st I’ll be racing a super late model. And on Wednesday, July 22nd, I’ll be racing my Mobile 1 UMP Dirt Modified against Canada’s best.”
Kenny Schrader will also be there. Geoffrey shared, “Kenny Schrader is a great friend to Ohsweken Speedway, and when you throw Kenny Wallace into the mix you get some great content and great racing. Not only are both Kennys great guys, but the car count will increase because everyone for hundreds of miles around with a race car will want to compete on the same track as either legend.”
