Hello Racers. I’m happy to announce we have officially locked in all the dates for this winters BSR Racing Tires Brushless Oval Tour. This year we have a 5 race schedule with your best 3 finishes counting toward the National Points Title. Selecting the final locations was a difficult process because we have several good tracks around the country deserving of a BRL race and not enough dates to go around. Hopefully in future we will be able to grow the schedule once again.
Although we do not have all the sponsors in place and final rules updated I felt it was important to get these dates out as I know it can effect vacation time, or race scheduling for some tracks. Look for Sponsor info and rules updates over the next month.
I think the combination of our new class structure and the locations chosen should make for a great season. I look forward to seeing you there.
