Tulsa, OK — (March 15, 2016) — After a winter season that had as much bite in the area as a toothless puppy on a torsion bar, the time has come to sink some teeth into something of actual substance: The 2016 Ameri-Flex / OCRS Sprint Car season. Brill Motor Speedway will host the season opener this Saturday night as the winged 360 sprinters hit the racetrack for the first time since September 19th of last season. In translation, that will be 182 days since discharged heat flowed through a set of Schoenfeld Headers. To long by several accounts.
Saturday night will also be the first step in teams qualifying for the very unique ‘Ameri-Flex Challenge”, a $5,000 to win 15-lap affair to be held in September at the Caney Valley Speedway. Checkout the OCRS website for additional details on the Ameri-Flex Challenge event. In all, 23 races are on the early docket for the season and Brill Motor Speedway is currently scheduled to hold the season finale as well, that will take place on September 17th. Robert Sellers took in $1500 in the only tour stop at BMS last year. Teams will be once again be competing for a top prize of $1500 this Saturday.
It’s been a long wait for everyone and Saturday night closes the curtain on Facebook pre-race car shows and story telling around the fireplaces and puts the real deal onto the track until leaves switch back to multi-color status. It’s about dang time people…………… Let’s do this thing!
