Without a doubt, Oakshade is one of my all time favorite places to be. I mean, if your feeling down about the racing in your neighborhood just pay this 3/8 mile semi banked oval a visit and restore your faith in modern day clay.
Here you will find friendy faces, excellent track prep and good food all in a festive atmosphere along with all
the action you care to stick around for. Car counts don't fall short at Oakshade and neither does the talent.
On this evening Cruz Pedregon was turning some very impressive laps, you'd have to stand in line to see
this legend at the dragstrip, at Oakshade just another driver TRYING to make the show along with
Rusty Schlenck, Brian Ruhlman, and a whole lot more. Expect a full field of Late Models,
Limiteds, about 60 Bombers, and a few mini stocks. Click the photo to see my gallery.

 


Take it up a notch at the home of "The Million Dollar Man", Muskingum has been the place to race
on a Saturday night for as long as I care to remember. With fair treatment, good driver payouts,
and consistently run shows the Moran family has built a wealth of on track talent along with
a dedicated fan base that is so vital for modern dirt track racing to survive. This Dresden
Ohio doesn't just survive, it thrives whether just a weekly program or one of many
special events throughout the year. This is just pure Late Model Heaven man,
you're just not going wrong with a visit to Muskingum County Speedway.

 


If I can call any track home it would have to be Hilltop, after all I spent almost every waking moment
working for this 1/4 mile high banked bullring during the early years of its reincarnation. They may
have a little work left to do but you'll be hard pressed to find more excitement on a Saturday
night than right here. Drivers travel for miles to check this place out and the best local
talent around will always give you a good run for the money. The team at Hilltop
gives all divisions the same first class treatment and promotes up and coming
stars in dirt track racing from Late Models to Mini Wedge racers.

 



Not long ago the only thing you could see race Attica were horses and sprint cars, I can't deny the on track
action is the best of the best, for a Late Model freak like me the Limiteds and occasional ALMS race did
little to satisfy race fans and show case the full potential this 1/3 mile semi banked clay arena possess.
Well let me just tell you Attica management hit one out of the park when they booked their inaugural
SummerNationals date, one of only two to be held here in Ohio. Attica drew the second highest car
count attracting 50 of the best around with only the Oakshade finale doing eight better, speaking
volumes about the racing found in our own back yard. Thanks Attica, can't wait for next year!

 




Thanks for the requests, and yes I was being a little stingy with the pictures I have taken this year. If I don't hear from race fans I just don't put the time or effort into producing and improving the website like I should and photos are just time consuming. Truth be told I haven't attended but a handful of races this year due to other commitments and really don't have the energy left after working the odd hours I must.
It is great to see old friends trackside and say hello, catch up on the good times along with the bad. It's amazing how much people invest in dirt racing, this is much more than a sport. Passion is more the word.
There are still a few tracks I want to see this year and a few I just won't but I hope to see YOU at a great race somewhere, stay safe and healthy and clean the dirt out of your ears when you get home.

Changed up the colors and still a little work to do here and there. Maybe more pics later I still have a bunch. Hope you are viewing on a wide screen otherwise a real pain in the ass doing the scroll bar thing.
I'd like to hear from all of you a little more often if I'm to keep this web site (not websight) active. Not a link because of bots but my e mail addy is still krace at race ohio . com. Let me know what you want !
Speaking of web sites, it just amazes me how shitty so many track sites are. Ya'll need to realize with no racing papers published anymore the world looks to the only source available for information.
