OSCAAR Twin 35's At Kawartha Speedway

OSCAAR Super Late Models head to Kawartha Speedway Friday August 11th to
compete in a new race format. Through an agreement between the OSCAAR
Board of Directors and Kawartha Promoter Derek Lynch which was worked out
immediately following the rained out event on June 2nd, the new race
format will consist of twin 35 lap feature races.

The evening will begin with the traditional 10 lap heat races and the
usual procedure for determining the starting grid will be used for the
first 35 lap race. However, the starting grid for the second 35 lap
feature race will be determined through a complete inversion of the
finishing order from the first 35 lap feature race. The winner of the
first feature will start last in the second feature.

Each race will be considered as a separate race event for points
calculation with the usual 300 points awarded to the winner and the
potential to earn 600 points for winning both events. Both races will be
documented in the website race report following the event. The purse
awards for the night will be based on a calculation involving the finish
position from both races and a method to incorporate a tie-breaker.
Further details on the purse will be discussed at the Kawartha drivers
meeting.

The new race format represents a bold departure from the traditional
format yet has inherent risks for the teams. Drivers are wary of the
potential for trouble but agreed with the new format to make up for the
rained-out event in June and give the fans a great show. Super Late Models
can be sensitive to set-up changes resulting in widely differing speeds on
the track. There is no doubt that a pack of very fast Outlaws will be
charging through the field during the second feature race. The action will
be fast and furious!

Speaking of Fast & Furious, fans will want to check out the latest deal
worked out between Kawartha Speedway and Brighton Speedway. An excellent
way to celebrate your passion for racing during the glory days of August;
visit the two speedways this weekend for $30 and get the best of both
worlds in asphalt and dirt racing.
