Ohsweken Speedway General Manager Clinton Geoffery spoke to Deya Miller, saying "We've got some of the best racer's in North America in the sprint cars and Nascar Pinty's Series so even if you come here weekly and check out the sprint cars you really want to get out here and check out these Nascar's. It's a different look, they don't normally race with us but its Canada's best touring series and their here on the dirt".
