Hey racefans I left some things out of
my last article that I wanted to talk about. The
IOFS The International Outlaw Figure 8 Series 2010
Schedule is released with races planned at two new
tracks added to the schedule this year. Kilkare (OH)
Speedway in Xenia,Ohio and Columbus (OH) Speedway
have each scheduled IOFS races for this season.
Kilkare Speedway has seen the Outlaw Figure 8 type
car in years past with an America's Figure 8
Challenge event held there years ago. I have never
seen a figure 8 race at Kilkare and I am very
excited about this one! Kilkare Speedway does not
have a regular weekly Figure 8 Division. Years ago
Kilkare had a pure stock class that would run a
figure 8 feature on Friday Nights. The IOFS puts on
a whale of a show and they are expecting a few more
drivers this year to run the entire 2010 schedule.
Columbus (OH) Speedway is a 1/3rd mile semi-banked
oval that installed a Figure 8 track originally to
host the wild and woolly school bus figure 8 races
and train figure 8 races. I encourage you racefans
that have never seen an outlaw figure 8 race to
attend some IOFS events in your area.I guarantee you
will not be dissapointed with the high speed
crossover action that the IOFS Series provides!

Indianapolis.I really need to get to Lawrenceburg as
I keep hearing there facilities and new track are
second to none.

event! I hope this schedule helps you out! Gotta go
see you at the races!
