IHRA welcomes Ozark Raceway Park back to member track family
By IHRA Media Mar 15, 2013
The International Hot Rod Association is thrilled to
announce that Ozark Raceway Park, located in Rogersville, Missouri, will be
returning to the IHRA member track family for the 2013 season and beyond in a
multi-year deal.
Purchased by the Chance family four years ago, Ozark Raceway
Park is an 1/8 mile drag racing facility nestled in the beautiful hills of the
Ozarks. Featuring a busy schedule with racing every Saturday night from April
through October, Ozark Raceway Park is once again excited to be a part of the
IHRA family and looks forward to taking advantage of the many sportsman
programs the IHRA has to offer.
“The IHRA is excited to have Ozark back in the family and we
look forward to working with them as they prepare to fully utilize the many
outstanding programs the IHRA has to offer including the Summit SuperSeries,
Summit Team Finals and other member track benefits,” said Jon O’Neal, IHRA
Division 1, 3 and 5 Director. “It is a one-of-a-kind facility with big plans
for the future and a management team that is always looking to grow their
sportsman programs. It should be a great
partnership this year and in the future.”
Ozark Raceway Park hosts a wide variety of racing throughout the year
Ozark Raceway Park is owned and operated by the Chance
family. Mitch, Neal and Marty Chance have been involved in drag racing for most
of their lives and their experience has helped them grow the facility and their
sportsman racing program. Certainly a unique track, with log cabin-designed
buildings, from the main office to the starter box, Ozark Raceway Park embraces
its forest locale as racecars roar down the 1/8 mile asphalt strip with over
200’ of launch pad. The track also boasts some of the best food in drag racing
at its concession stands.
The busy Ozark Raceway Park schedule includes many forms of
racing from shootout programs featuring Pro, Mod, Pro Street, True 10.5, Drag
Radial, Junior Dragster and additional classes. The track also hosts multiple
test and tune nights, Midnight Drags once a month and multiple special events
held throughout the year.
