Open Comp 200 Slated for Friday of Oxford 250 Weekend

Officials at the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) and Oxford Plains Speedway (OPS) have announced another marquis event as a part of the 51st annual Oxford 250 weekend August 23-25. A $10,000-to-win open competition 200 lap event for Super Late Models will the headline the Friday card night of the biggest weekend of the year.

"We wanted to give teams another big race with big money as a part of the biggest weekend of the year," said PASS President Tom Mayberry. "Adding in the twist of an open competition will make strategy and ingenuity a factor in the outcome of the race."

A few minimal rules will be enforced by technical inspectors, allowing teams to think outside the box on both strategy, setups, and overall package. All cars will weigh 2750 with 58% left side weight, have a template style body with a clear spoiler, a tread width no more the 66 inches, no aluminum engine blocks, one carburetor, and the PASS Hoosier tires without tire softener.

With the addition of the 200 lap Open Competition race, PASS and OPS now feature four big marquis races at the Rte. 26 oval; The Celebration of America 300 in July, the aforementioned 200, the Oxford 250, and PASS 400 weekend in October. Further, Super Late Model racers will have a 150 lap event on August 4th and a 100 Oxford 250 qualifier on August 11th meaning every SLM race in the month August will be extra distance.
