For
Immediate Release – Ken Pelkie, OHSWEKEN
Speedway
Ohsweken Speedway is please to announce the
gates will once again swing open to greet race
fans for “Friday Night Thunder”. 360
Sprint Cars will headline the weekly program
for the third year with the backing of Corr/Pak
Merchandising Inc. Also returning to the
regular program will be the Thunder Stocks and
Mini Stocks on a weekly basis along with our
entry level “BOMBERS” who will compete on
the smaller inside oval.
Several major events appear on the 2010
schedule which is being prepared for release
in its entirety early in the New Year.
Among them will be the return visit of the
World of Outlaw Sprint series contesting the
“Six Nations Showdown” on Friday &
Saturday, July 30th and 31st for a pair of
complete programs including qualifying, heats,
dash, and main.
Closing out the season will be the 6th edition
of the “Canadian Sprint Car Nationals” to
be contested on the weekend on September 17th
and 18th. This year $10,000 of a posted
$65,000 plus purse awaits the winner of the
main event that has been lengthened to 35
laps. The “A” Main will for the first time
feature 30 of the finest 360 sprint cars in
the north east paying $700 to take the green
flag.
Please take note that fans who held reserved
seat tickets for any or all of the above three
races in 2009 will have until December 31st to
renew the same seats for 2010. PLEASE CALL
(1-888) 720-7223 or email Cheryl at pelkiekj@ebtech.net
FOR ASSISTANCE.
Remaining tickets will go on sale to the
general public March 1st, 2010 on a first
come, first serve basis.
Several other specials including the second
annual “Northern Summer Nationals” on July
2nd dot the calendar. This year’s edition of
the Summer Nationals will again feature a one
day format using a passing point system
through a series of qualifying events. Other
sanctioned sprint car races for the Southern
Ontario Sprints, the Empire Super Sprints, and
the ASCS Patriots will also be featured during
the summer with a new twist as CORR/Pak
Sprints will be on each of these programs as a
co sanctioning body pitting their best against
our own. An Ontario Thunder Stock Open
Championship is also in the early planning
stages that will offer a huge payoff. And the
return of the popular Dwarf Cars along with
Vintage Car racing is also on tap.
Noticeably absent from the schedule are World
of Outlaw Late Models and both UMP Late Models
and Modifieds.
2010 rules for all classes will be posted on
the official Ohsweken Speedway website at
www.ohswekenspeedway.com in the near future.
Ohsweken Speedway will also be participating
in several off season shows including the CPT
Racing Expo in London January 16 /17. Be sure
to visit the website often for all of the
latest news on these and other happenings as
work continues toward opening day. Any
questions should be directed to Ken Pelkie at
(1-888) 720-7223 or email to pelkiekj@ebtech.net.
And finally, everyone is reminded that the
annual awards banquet will take place on
Saturday night, November 14th in Ancaster at
the Merritt Hall located at the fairgrounds.
Accomplishments of the 2009 season will be
recognized with champions in all 4 divisions
being crowned. Ticket information is available
on the speedway website.
