OSCAAR: Barrie Speedway Next Stop for Team JNE Consulting

MILTON, ON – Team JNE Consulting head to Barrie Saturday June 17 for an Father’s day tilt on the OSCAAR Outlaw Super Late Model Series. John Fletcher and his team head to the 1/3-mile Tri-Oval in hopes the weather is good and the OSCAAR season can get rolling. The previous two stops on the ultra fast series have battled weather in both events.

Team JNE Consulting are chomping at the bit to begin the chase for the OSCAAR title that has eluded them for the last two years. With a feature event win in 2004, the team is poised to try to strike again.

“ We tested here in 2005 and did not get to run so we are looking forward to this event” add John. The team is coming off what looked like to be a good start to 2006 with a qualifying race win before the feature washed out until August 11 at Kawartha Speedway June 2. See you Saturday and celebrate father’s day at the races.

Barrie Speedway Notes: Built in 1965, Barrie Speedway was the first paved stock car racing facility north of Toronto and has been home to Canada's most exciting stock car action ever since. The track was originally built as a tight 1/4-mile oval, the configuration very similar in shape to Martinsville Speedway. The track was widened and the banking was increased in 1999.

The track has been continually renovated and improved since a new ownership group took over in 1999. A new sound system was put in 1999; new washrooms, heated grandstands and a state-of-the-art lighting system are all recent upgrades. Countless improvements have been made to the grounds, including provisions wheelchair accessibility. Barrie Speedway prides itself on being a fun, family-oriented facility A massive expansion of the track itself was undertaken in the fall of 2004.
