WEST FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Two-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion Tony Stewart says he likes racing on his days off — but only on dirt tracks.

Stewart is scheduled to race Wednesday at the Red River Valley Speedway in West Fargo, N.D., to help promote the dirt track. The speedway is being run this summer by Danny Schatz, whose son races for Stewart on the World Of Outlaws circuit.

Stewart says racing in places like West Fargo brings him back to his roots. He says he competes in about a dozen dirt track races a year.

Stewart is known for racing just about anything with four wheels. He estimates that he has raced in about 40 states. It is his first trip to North Dakota.
