Traditional, Non-Traditional Meet at Millstream Speedway
Findlay, OH, July 27, 2015 – Race fans that travel to Millstream Speedway this coming Sunday will get a taste of both the traditional and the non-traditional. On the “traditional” side, the non-wing sprint cars of the Mo Vaughn Transport Buckeye Outlaw Sprint Series (BOSS) will invade the ½ mile clay oval on Sunday, August 2. Now in its 4th season, BOSS focuses on cost containment and bills itself as a “working man’s sprint car series.” This has resulted in large fields of cars and has helped fuel a renaissance in Ohio of the more traditional style wingless racing that was the norm until at least the mid 1970s.
On the more non-traditional side, Millstream will also be featuring a stock car division with a few wrinkles, and not just on the quarter panels. To encourage wide-spread participation and in support of a “Run to Have Fun” format, the stock cars will be permitted to run based on the rules of their home track. In addition, anyone running a dirt truck compliant with Attica / Fremont rules will also be permitted to participate. After all preliminary events, a “lucky dog” draw will allow two additional stock cars to join the 22-car main event. The 3-division program will also be joined by the winged mini-sprints, based on Waynesfield rules.
There are a couple of schedule changes this week, with all gates now opening at 3:00pm. This includes for reserving spots on the hillsides for lawn chairs and blankets. To help get fans out in plenty of time, on-track action will begin a little earlier, at 5:30pm. Race fans arriving early will enjoy race cars on display and a driver autograph session around 4:15pm, followed by a trivia contest.
