Chapman, Marshall cop first-ever triumphs

OXFORD, Maine – Less than three months after unexpectedly losing the driving force behind his racing career, four-time Oxford Networks Late Model champion Travis Adams paid an emotional visit to Oxford Plains Speedway on Saturday night.

Adams out-dueled fellow champions Tim Brackett, Ricky Rolfe and Shawn Martin and held off impressive second-year Late Model campaigner Shawn Knight for the 40-lap win in the Championship Series season-opener.
The three-time defending division champ used the outside lane to grab the lead for the final time on lap 29. When Brackett and Rolfe tangled on the same circuit, Adams' victory was all but sealed.

Oxford Plains Speedway unveils 2009 schedule

Later race dates, Thursday 'Summer Slam' highlight 2009 OPS race schedule

OXFORD, Maine – In hopes of courting the favor of Mother Nature, Oxford Plains Speedway has announced one subtle adjustment and a major, new wrinkle to its 2009 racing schedule.
After years of traditionally employing a slate that progressed from just after Easter until Labor Day, OPS will unfurl the green flag on Sunday, May 17, with the New England Dodge Dealers ACT 150.
To accommodate that change, the speedway will stretch the season deep into October, concluding with the rebirth of “Halloween on Wheels” on Sunday, Oct. 25.
Speedway owner Bill Ryan also announced the creation of the Oxford Championship Series Summer Slam — three monthly events to be held on Thursday nights. Those programs will feature added distances for all three divisions and will count toward both the season championship and the Agren Appliance Triple Crown.
“Every season we evaluate the weather and the number of race dates, and we try to organize a schedule that will give our drivers and fans the chance to see the most racing in the most comfortable conditions,” Ryan said. “We’re excited about the 2009 schedule because it provides more opportunities to race in September and October as well as moving some of those cold April and May nights to July and August.”
The 2009 season will commence with the traditional practice day for all divisions on Saturday, May 9. Forty race dates dot an ambitious schedule from there, covering the full spectrum of racing divisions and family entertainment.
