CHILLICOTHE, OHIO-Although the temperatures outside are frigid, the 2015 racing season at Atomic Speedway is about to heat up as the "Midwest's Fastest 3/8 Mile Oval" is about to kick off the northern racing campaign for one of the nations' most prestigious series--The Lucas Oil Late Models--Friday, March 20. Dubbed the "Buckeye Spring 50", this race kicks off a star-studded slate of twenty six races in 2015 at the fabled dirt racing facility. Open wheel modifieds are also on the racing card.



Drivers that compete on the Lucas Oil series in 2015 will be vying for the coveted series championship that will pay $75,000 to the champion, along with a $10,000 prize to the LOLMDS Rookie of the Year. Friday's race at Atomic will pay $10,000 to the winner. The top 15 drivers in the series, often credited as the top 15 in the nation, are slated to be on hand to compete for a spot in the 26-car field.


Ticket pricing for the opening night March 20th Lucas Oil Late Models "Buckeye Spring 50" are as follows:

0-12 FREE

$20 Seniors over 60

$22 General Admission, ages 13-59

$25 General Admission Reserved seating

$5 reserved seat

$20 Pit Pass 0-12

$35 Pit Pass age 13 or older


Pre sale tickets and reserve seating is available by calling the track at 740-703-9749. Camping is available in the Atomic front lot this season; call for availability at 740-703-9749. Also camping is available at the adjacent Trackside Camping at 740-701-2908.


Pit gates open at 2 p.m., Main gates at 4 p.m. and Hot Laps at 6 p.m. Atomic Speedway management and Lucas Oil officials are exploring a reschedule date in the event that extreme inclement weather continues.


Saturday, March 28th, the University of Northern Ohio (UNOH) All Star Sprints invade Atomic paying $10,000 to win plus Late Models and Sport Mods. A practice for all types of cars is tentatively slated for March 14.


Atomic Speedway would like to remind all drivers about our points' system.The points' championship includes every race on the schedule. On special events the top regular drivers earn points as to how they finish. If the first two local drivers finish 9th and 10th in a sanctioned show like the Lucas Oil event, they would then receive 1st and 2nd place Atomic points for the evening. The object is to involve our local supporting race teams in every event and reward them with points in this manner. Also AMRA points DO NOT start until April 1 so the March shows are not sanctioned and will not need an AMRA license until April 1.


LARGEST SCHEDULE AND RECORD 3.6 MILLION DOLLARS UP FOR GRABS FOR LUCAS OIL IN 2015

The 2015 series schedule will include a record eleven (11) events paying $20,000 or more to the winner. The series will close out the 2015 season in Portsmouth, OH at the Optima Batteries Dirt Track World Championship-Presented by NAPA, that will pay a record $100,000 to the winner. The series features an unprecedented point fund with $75,000 to the champion.

Over 50 hours of programming of the ground pounding LOLMDS will be available for race fans to view in 2015. The entire TV schedule can been seen at: http://lucasdirt.com/schedule/tv-schedule#.
