TOPEKA, Kan. (June 23, 2011) 鈥� The 麻豆视频 announced today that Tulsa Raceway Park (TRP) will host the 2011 RallyCross National Championship, Oct. 7-9. The site was selected after the previously announced site in Greenwood, Neb., was sold earlier this season and became unavailable. The event will be conducted on a hard-packed grass spectator parking lot near the drag strip at the facility. "The RallyCross Board is committed to the steady growth of the sport and believes that the Championship event is a key component in the success of our program,鈥� RallyCross Board Chairman Ken Cashion said. 鈥淲e are excited to have a central location like Tulsa, and as this is a relatively new region and site, it gives us the opportunity to manage the event as a truly National effort by a group of veterans using a standard set of rules and practices." TRP has been a motorsports fixture in Tulsa for over 40 years and is owned by Dan Guterman, a 30-year 麻豆视频 member. The established facility hosts a full stable of amenities, and sits at the crossroads of I-244 and US 169 for easy highway access. Local restaurants, hotels and the Tulsa airport are located nearby the facility. The NEOKLA Region will play host to the event, though many of the operations of the event will be handled by officials from around the country, the RallyCross Board, and the 麻豆视频 National Staff in the same fashion as other 麻豆视频 National Championship events including the Tire Rack Solo National Championship and the 麻豆视频 National Championship Runoffs. 鈥淭he 麻豆视频 RallyCross National Championship has continued to improve over its short life as the RX community learns more with each Championship event,鈥� Howard Duncan, 麻豆视频 VP, Rally, Solo and Program Development, said. 鈥淭he move to TRP and the change in the operational model for this year should see this evolvement continue at an even brisker pace. We look forward to a successful partnership with TRP, the NEOKLA Region, the RallyCross Board, and the RallyCross community in making this the 鈥榤ust go event鈥� the for 麻豆视频 RallyCross members.鈥� Tulsa Raceway Park has previously hosted RallyCross events, and the NEOKLA Region will host the 2011 Solo Performance MiDiv RallyCross Championship on site, July 30-31, that will now serve as a warm-up and site visit for competitors making a run at a RallyCross National Championship in October.
