More Firsts In Ocala's Second Week of Action

The second week of regular season racing action at Florida's oldest speedway will bring another round of firsts to Ocala area race fans, including a new regular division making their debut at Ocala Speedway.  Meanwhile three other regular divisions will get their first crack at Ocala's tough layout in 2010 on Friday, March 12th.

While the Sportsman Division has made previous appearances at Ocala for special races, 2010 marks the first time that Sportsman cars will be a regular part of the Ocala schedule.  This change is the direct result of constant urging by many sportsman racers who have asked for the chance to race at Ocala on a regular basis, and Friday night is the first race since that change was enacted.
 
The Sportsman cars will race on the same nights as the Open Wheel Modifieds, which are also racing for the first time in 2010 on Friday at Ocala.  2009 Division Champion, Jeff Mathews, will be back to defend his title, and the racers who made the OWM's one of the stronger divisions in 2009 will be there to challenge him.  Add to their ranks a new set of new faces and the Mods look to be exciting and competitive in 2010.

The Ocala Speedway Hobby Stocks will also hit the clay on Friday night, not only to kick off their season, but to get some seat time before their $1000 to win race coming the following Friday night.  Bubba Christian claimed the championship in 2009, but others have their sights on the prize in 2010.  Look for some new faces as some racers have moved up to the Hobby Stocks for 2010, while others have refocused their efforts at getting to the top of the points standings.

And the Ocala Speedway Gladiators will also get to race for the first time in 2010, as the likes of Devin Walker and Kody Fisher dump their "rookie" status in favor of racing toward the top of the heap.  Paul Hahn grabbed the prize for 2009 with consistency and determination, and will have to defend that crown from a host of hungry challengers.

Back for the second race in 2010 will be the most exciting and competitive division at Ocala, the Amsoil V8 Thunder Stocks. 

The grandstand gates will open at 5PM with heat racing slated to begin at 8PM, and complete details on prices for admission are posted at www.OcalaSpeedway.com, as well as the complete racing schedule through the first week in May. 
 
Surprises Abound At Ocala Speedway Opener

Race fans and racers braved a frosty Florida night as they gathered to reopen the historic Ocala Speedway for another exciting season of racing, and Florida's oldest speedway did not disappoint.  The Sunoco United Dirt Late Model Challenge Series was also kicking off their season as a part of the festivities at Ocala, as were Ocala's own Amsoil V8 Thunder Stocks, and the Mini Stocks.  The fans and racers also collected over $260 to pass along to the founder and operator of Karnac.com and Real Racin' USA, Jack Smith.  Smith has recently been undergoing extensive surgery and was diagnosed with cancer.

Much of the attention on the night went to the Sunoco United Dirt Late Models as the new and improved version of the racing series debuted.  The Ocala race officially was part of the new Southern division of the UDLMCS, but racers from the north also participated.  Also garnering plenty of attention was the newly formed team included Ocala's own Ivedent Lloyd and Darrell Padgett.  That attention to this Roush-Yates powered team would last well into the early morning hours after Ivedent Lloyd wasted no time in setting the bar high, as he set fast time in qualifying with a blistering 16.275 on his second solo lap.

Four heat races and a B-main set the field for the feature event, with Keith Nosbisch on the point for the 50 lapper.  The B-Main was a last chance for two final cars to transfer to the big race, and Dillon Wood made the cut despite earlier problems that kept him out of contention during heat racing.

As the Sunoco United Dirt Late Model Challenge Series got their feature event underway, Keith Nosbisch headed to the point and took control, while all others gave chase.  Trouble came on lap 6 as Jeff Mathews and Philip Cobb tangled, creating the first caution of the race.  That incident was only the beginning of what proved to be a very frustrating night for Mathews, who found himself mired in heavy traffic.  It also sent the 26 of Dillon Wood to the pits for a quick fix and put him on the rear of the field for the restart.
 
Also dealing with traffic was 2 time and defending series champion, Johnny Collins.  Collins would start the race behind the front rows, and was picking his way forward when Mathews' rough night got a little rougher in turn 4.  Jeff Mathews' spin would cause the caution to wave again, bunching up the field behind Keith Nosbisch once more, and when the green waved Nosbisch was being chased by Brandon Dewitt, Bo Allen, Tyler Ivey, and Mark Whitener.
