During the off-season long-time OCRS owner Barry Grabel sold the series to Caney Valley Speedway promoter Kerry Gorby. Since then Gorby has been busy preparing for the 2019 season and has named PR Director John Lemon as Director of Competition.
Ameri-Flex Hose and Accessories returns as title sponsor and will continue to enhance the OCRS payout to drivers as has been done in the past. The racing format remains unchanged with drivers earning their feature starting positions through passing points earned in heat race competition.
Now the time has come to go racing and the first race under Kerry Gorby ownership takes place Saturday with the running of the Red Dirt Cup at Red Dirt Raceway in Meeker.
Last season a field of 33 competitors was on hand for the Ameri-Flex / OCRS opener at Red Dirt Raceway and, if pre-entries are any indication, another good turnout is expected.
In last years opener, Mickey Walker led the first 13 laps of the 30-lap main before giving up the lead to Sean McClelland. Walker fell back in the field and veteran Danny Smith, who started ninth, worked his way to a second place finish.
The grandstand will open at 2 p.m. Saturday and with racing getting underway at 4 p.m.
