ORANGE SHOW SPEEDWAY. 1/4 PAVED OVAL. SAN BERNARDINO, CA. www.theorangeshowspeedway.com

Saturday, April 9th. The long awaited season opener at the OSS, presented by 1 800 Loan Mart, is finally here and they're starting historic season number 68 on a strong note with racing from their Legend Cars running a 30 lap main, the Open Late Models-50 laps, Street Stocks-30 laps, Mini Stocks & Bandoleros-25 laps each, the always fun Barber Pole race-15 laps and the always exciting Outlaw Figure 8's-20 laps.

The gates will open at 8am followed by a special single car test and tune session from 8:30am to 11:45am. The single car practice will be run in five minute sessions and the driver can return to the track as many times as they want. Entry fee is $50 cash only. The teams must clear the itp aera at 12pm to allow credential officials to begin their jobs. This special test and tune is an excellent shake down run for drivers and crew chiefs to determine what their prior to the racing later in the night. Later in the day, from 1 to 3pm, there will be a practice session, open to all cars and divisions.

At 3:15pm qualifying begins followed by heat races at 6pm, the playing of the "National Anthem" and trophy dashes at 6:55pm. the Bandolero main event at 7:25pm and main events at 7:50pm. There are two basic reason for this very intricate time schedule. First off, OSS officials are expecting approximately 100 cars Saturday night and staying on schedule has become very important. The other reason is the OSS policy of giving their fans a full racing show that doesn't run extremely late. This consideration is especially aimed at fans who have young children that they need to get home to bed.

The OSS is also keeping their ticket prices on a budget friendly basis. General admission tickets, age 13 and up, are only $8. Tickets for seniors and kids, age 6 to 12 are $ 6 while kids five and under along with active duty miltary personnel, with valid ID, will be admitted free.
