Roll call for MCR at OREC

Alan Nyhus · 07-08-2019, 10:33 AM

This weekend marks MCR's first event at the O.R.E.C (Onawa Racing and Event Center) in Onawa, Iowa just south of Sioux City and right off I-29. This is a city owned drag strip and event center complex that offers 1/8 mile racing. The track is beautifully smooth and the Stock/Super Stock racers that have tested there have been impressed with the traction and prep.

Okay...who's going?

1/8 mile racing is like taking you sister to the prom. make it a 1/4 mile and I am in!

Better to take your sister then your mom. I’m thankful for any track that is willing to host a event for us. Great payouts and less wear on hard parts what’s not to like? But hey what do I know as a rookie with a small budget. Thanks to all the sponsors and people that put these together.

Unfortunately as a dad with two boys in baseball I’m unable to make it. Its wrong but I’m hope for a couple quick losses in the state tournament and I will haul down for one day!

We're heading up Friday night. Hope to see a great turnout and put on a good show!
And Corky, you should be used to dating your sister by now haha!

Recapping the payout for both days of this race:
Win: $2000
RU: $1000
Semi: $500
Qtrs: $250
First round winners: $75 (addl round money paid to the qtrs)

Entry fee is $100 per day.

So bring your sister-date

(or even your cousin-wife, if you have one of those

) and come enjoy some of the best Stock/Super Stock racing in the country while we continue to build for the future.

Just a FYI
The National Nomad Club 3 yr convention is in Omaha beginning Sunday, I know a few are going to swing by track Sunday before gathering at the Marriott at Regency, they put the drag race in 2 issues of their monthly newsletter. Maybe you’ll see some traveling on the Interstate and wonder what’s going on

Now ya know
