By Ken Pelkie

OHSWEKEN, ON – Sprints On Dirt has signed a third heat race sponsor for the 2005 season as Ohsweken Speedway inked a deal recently. They join XYZ Machining along with Engler Machine and Tool as major sponsors of heat races at all SOD-sanctioned events throughout the season.

“Glenn and Tina Styres of Ohsweken Speedway have been very supportive to the Sprints On Dirt series over the past couple of seasons” stated SOD Media/Public Relations Director, Ken Pelkie while announcing the deal. “Besides hosting a SOD Points Event at Ohsweken, Glenn has taken every opportunity to compete in our series that his schedule will allow. We are very pleased to have Ohsweken Speedway on board with our program on a weekly basis throughout the 2005 season and will carry their name proudly”.

The Sprints On Dirt schedule finds a visit to Ohsweken scheduled for Friday night, August 26th. The program on that evening will hold multiple benefits to the traveling Michigan based series. First of all, it will be the final race of the two race CAN/AM Challenge mini-series with the Southern Ontario Sprints. It will also mark race number two of the four race, 2nd Annual “Canadian Wilderness Tour” which Glenn and Tina Styres also support. And finally, it will qualify the final three positions for the “Ohsweken Shootout” that will be run the night before the “Canadian Sprint Car Nationals”. The three highest finishing SOD members who can attend the shootout will be locked into the September 16th event.

“Having run with Sprints On Dirt in the past, we appreciate the exposure that their program can give us by running at so many different tracks throughout Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio” exclaimed Glenn. “Tina and I wish all of the SOD Teams success during the 2005 Season and look forward to being a part of Sprints On Dirt.”
