Orange Show Speedway and BSR West partner to
make 2008 Super Late Model Division one for the ages
SAN BERNARDINO, CA (March 26, 2008) – Many drivers
who’ve raced at Orange Show Speedway over the years have done so
with nothing more than a desire to compete in the sport they love. Sponsorship
for many teams only helps make race-day costs like fuel, tires and admission
affordable. BSR West President Harold Nicks sees many levels of racers
come thru the doors of his performance racing parts shop. He has supported
many levels and tracks. Today OSS and BSR West announced their own ‘pot
of gold’ at the end of the rainbow for drivers competing in the
points championship for the BSR West Super Late Models at Orange Show
Speedway in 2008. At the 2008 Awards Dinner, Harold Nicks will be presenting
the Super Late Model Champion a check for an additional $5,000.00 (Five
Thousand) in addition to normal ASA and Orange Show Speedway points fund
awards. Harold felt, along with the announcement by ASA of a National
Short Track Championship, was his chance to highlight the dedication so
many families have made over the years;
“This sport has provided so much for myself and my family. I see
racers walk in the doors at BSR West before they leave for work, on their
lunch, or even after work. We provide the highest quality of performance
parts to what I know is some of the highest quality of people I know.
Their dedication to the sport is unmatched.”
“Orange Show Speedway has more momentum than any other track around.
They treat everyone with respect and I am glad we can support their efforts
to take care of the local racers, local fans and local businesses, like
ourselves, who work within this sport on a regular basis.”

technology and parts in the region. Parker Pumper is dedicated to providing

sponsor to the Super Late Model division competing at OSS and the division
representing in the chase for the ASA Short Track National Championship.
Joe Ganino, Director of Motorsports for Orange Show Speedway, sees this
as just the beginning of many opportunities for drivers and divisions
that race here at the historic ¼ mile high-banked oval;
“To say we are excited about today’s announcement would be
a bit of an understatement. It is a great compliment to have someone within
the racing industry like Harold and everyone at BSR West step up to the
plate the way they have over the last two years. The Speedway’s
desire has been to return to exactly what we are…a track that celebrates
our great sport, our great fans and all the families. This kind of support
affirms that we are doing this the correct way.”
In other news at OSS, Saturday, March 29th will mark the first of three
pre season open practice sessions. Prior to that, OSS staff of officials
along with numerous drivers, teams and families have been participating
in ‘Clean Up’ days that has resulted in the painting of the
entire bleacher areas, new roofing over the scale areas over tech, the
repainting of the tech shack and registration area. Families and teams
that participated were thanked with complimentary barbeque and single
car practice for all drivers who brought along their racecars. Gary Stockman,
OSS Director of Competition, has enjoyed the enthusiasm from the drivers
to make things better;
“This track is as much the drivers as anyone else’s. All this
couldn’t have been done without the efforts from the families like
the Huizenga, Secord, and Mahan, the staff and these great men and women
who make up our officials. This is a special place and these are special
people. The facility looks better and better everyday, and wouldn’t
be possible without the help from all the drivers and families who’ve
participated in the ‘clean up’ days. This is everyone’s
track and we all are proud of the progress we’re making.”
