CHILLICOTHE, OHIO-A lot of racing is on the horizon at the historic Atomic Speedway near Chillicothe, Ohio--Ohio's Fastest 3/8 mile high-banked oval. In the world of 'Open Wheel' racing all eyes are focused on the October 23-24-25 Open Wheel Championships, an event that will pay out over $115,000 in overall prize money for 410 Outlaw winged sprint cars, non-winged sprints, and AMRA Open Wheel Modifieds.
"But first-things first," proclaimed owner Brad McCown. "We have the Bob Crace, Sr. Memorial this weekend Oct. 4, and Cancer Awareness weekend Oct. 11 before taking a week off to get things spruced up for the big Open Wheel weekend. Open wheel racers have looked forward to this event all season long. This year will be a huge event and in the future we look to grow this race into a nationwide classic."
Already, 45 entries have rolled into the Atomic Speedway office for the 410 winged sprint cars along with phone calls indicating numerous other drivers will be on-hand for the weekend. Nearly 100 entries are expected for the Renegade Sprint Series spectacular.
The "Dash-for-Cash" alone--in all divisions-- pays $1,000 to win, $500, $400, $300, $200, $150 and $100 through tenth. In the winged outlaw sprints, the winner's share is $15,000 to win and $1000 to start for a 22-car field. Non-qualifiers will furn for $2,065 in the Charlie McCann Memorial and $200 to start. The #65 in the winner's share stands for McCann's longtime car number. Forty-two cars and drivers will go home with at least $200. The non-winged sprints and modifieds run for $5,000 to win and $500 to start.
