(updated 6-27-09) - RACE DAY - Practice @ 4pm, Racing @
6:00pm.We will be RACING at OTR Speedway Today! Please use caution entering the pit area. Ground is very wet!   The
2009 Season opener here at OTR Speedway was nothing short of fantastic! We had
34 entries in through 5 classes and there was some very entertaining racing! The
new 1/10 Electric Sprint class was a huge success with 8 entries and should be a
great addition to the racing lineup at OTR Speedway. This season there are a lot
of racers sporting EDM bodies on their 1/10 trucks so we are starting to look
more like their full scale cousins every race! The weather was fantastic and for
the next round of racing we'll be starting in the evening and finishing up the
mains under the lights. If you missed this round be sure to write down June 6th
on your calendar for the next raceday. As always we encourage newcomers and
interested parties to attend our events so that you can give out R/C oval racing
a try. Come out and join the fun you won't be disappointed!In addition to some of the changes at OTR Speedway for the 2009 season will be a $5 fee per entrant this year. With the growing costs of operation we can only continue providing the facility and surrounding grounds at a small fee to the racers. The $5 per entrant will covers each racer for multiple classes and kids under 16 always race for free. This money will be directly put back into the racing facility. It will also help with maintenance of track equipment and AMB transponder service. We would again like to thank all of the supporters that turn out week in and week out. It's you the racers that make all this possible! Thank You and we'll see you at the track!!! ~ The management. 
A New Year and some New things at OTR Speedway Well after some big success over the last few seasons we are looking to entertain some other areas of our hobby. This year we will open the skies to helicopters and the open fields to some 1/5 Baja racing. There's nothing solid yet but there are plans in the works for a 1/5 Baja off-road course. There is a ton of work to do but we are looking to see what interest there will be for racing the 1/5 Gassers and if there is enough interest we'll begin construction this spring. If you are a Heli or Baja owner and would like to know more please feel free to contact us. We are looking to feel out the local R/C Heli and Baja crowd so that we can offer and outlet for another great niche of our sport.  If
