It was an incredible first day back in the dome, and that meant the sound of engines roaring around the high-banked dirt oval inside of The Dome at America's Center could be heard all night—it must be the 2025 Kubota Gateway Dirt Nationals!

FloRacing is streaming all of the high speed, high-paying action live straight from St. Louis, MO.

After opening the first of three nights of racing with hot laps and qualifying, track activity quickly progressed into the six heat races, B-Mains, and preliminary feature events.

Just the top three drivers from the late models earned automatic spots in Saturday's show: Bobby Pierce, Mike Harrison, and Brandon Sheppard.

Here's the schedule for the 2025 Kubota Gateway Dirt Nationals on Friday, Dec. 5.
