The second Outlaw Scale Series race was just as big of a hit as the first one, we had a huge turnout, close competition, tons of race prizes and most importantly tons of fun! We're looking to keep the momentum rolling as we head to Inman,SC and invade Upstate Speedway for the very first time. It features a fast paced 135' Ogilvie Grandstand and challenging 165' Dadd's built Corner Climb that is definitely a driver's track. There will be a large group of locals and experienced Carolina racer's in attendance for their first OSS race! I wouldn't be surprised to see 25 to 30 racer's from 5 different states here for this event, so if you missed the last race, don't miss this one!

 

Once again we have a dedicated race director for the day to keep things rolling smoothly.

 

I will have box plaques for TQ, Concours and 1st through 5th in each class to hand out, as well as more participation decals.

 

I also still have some Large and X-Large shirts if you want me to bring you one.

Great tracks, nice facility and a great guy running the place. Michael has a decent bit of stock in the store, too.

 

We visited the place this past Saturday for some local races. You'll get a real kick out of the Corner Climb. Not the easiest track to drive, and it really makes you focus! Probably the most challenging track I've ever driven. I love it.

 

See you guys on 10/10 in Inman.

Corner Climb is nice, changes radically from outside to inside. think it will be 8 tooth for CanAm, need the brakes. We ran 4.9-5.0 lap times.

I believe nascar is only being run on the corner climb.
Test, test, test, and go test some more.
