Enter 2008 TD Banknorth 250 by April
15, become eligible for Goodyear tire drawing
OXFORD, Maine - In conjunction with
the registration process for the 35th annual TD Banknorth 250
Presented by New England Dodge Dealers, Oxford Plains Speedway owner
Bill Ryan has announced that early entries once again will be
entered into a drawing for eight Goodyear tires.
All race entries received by Tuesday,
April 15 will be free. OPS will draw three tire winners from that
pool of drivers.
“We introduced the tire drawing
last year as sort of a grand opening for the new Late Model format
of the TD Banknorth 250, and the response absolutely floored us,”
Ryan said. “With the limit on the number of tires every team may
buy, eight is a huge reward and one that could make a big difference
in any driver’s race weekend.”
OPS received 156 pre-entries during
the tire giveaway window last year. That total increased to more
than 180, with 97 different drivers making an actual qualifying
attempt on race day. The latter number represented the highest car
count at New England’s most lucrative, historic short track race
in a decade. The TD Banknorth 250 entry form is available here
or by calling the Speedway office at (207) 539-8865. (You must
have the current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader to download the
entry blank.)
This year’s TD Banknorth 250 again
features the traditional three days of racing, all presented by New
England Dodge Dealers.
It begins with a full card of Oxford
Championship and Acceleration Series competition on Friday, July 18,
followed by a day of TD Banknorth 250 practice and the Maine-Ly
Action Sports 100 for the True Value Modified Racing Series on
Saturday, July 19.
Qualifying begins Sunday at 2 p.m.
for the TD Banknorth 250. NASCAR Sprint Cup Series star and 2007
Daytona 500 champion Kevin Harvick filed the first entry for the
race last month. Reserved seats are available at $50, $40 and $30. Seating
