The APC United Late Model Series presented by Castrol is back in action for its 12th season of Pro Late Model competition in 2026, the division confirmed on Thursday, releasing its eight-race schedule that features several short ovals across Ontario.
As is typical for the series, all of its events will remain at 100 laps in length, but this year, as details unfold, the division will make additional announcements about some new wrinkles for the upcoming season.
The series will take its first green flag of the season on Victoria Day Weekend in May at Delaware Speedway, a half-mile oval just outside of London, Ontario, where teams, fans, and sponsors will get to see two days of racing along with camping to kick off the Summer in Ontario. The season-opener will take place on Saturday, May 16.
Just two weeks later, the APC United Late Model Series begins what will be an action-packed Summer with a trip to Flamboro Speedway near Hamilton, Ontario -- a racetrack known as "Hamilton's Asphalt Arena" that will host a pair of dates on the 2026 calendar.
Peterborough Speedway (in Peterborough, Ontario) will host the third event of the campaign on June 13, with an event that has become notable for its incredible one-third-mile action.
The first half of the season will be completed at Delaware Speedway, as the series celebrates Canada Day Weekend with an event on June 27. On July 11, the series returns to Flamboro Speedway for its second and final stop of 2026.
Sauble Speedway will host a pair of events on the APC United Late Model Championship calendar in 2026, and will serve as the run to the championship, with an event on August 1 and the penultimate event of the season taking place on August 22.
Finally, Delaware Speedway will be hosting the season-finale for the series on September 26, as part of the Great Canadian Race Weekend, which serves as one of Canada's biggest oval events, and will officially crown the 2026 APC Series Champion.
Additional details such as race format, length, and sponsorship announcements will follow in the months leading up to the 2026 APC United Late Model Series campaign.
