Wellston - UTV Racing
- Jeff Toney
UTV Racing Has Arrived IN Oklahoma
UTV racing is very big in California and as usual,
Oklahoma is right behind if not in front of what happens
out there. Make no mistake about it, Oklahoma is a
force in Motor Sports across the Nation and once again
you can expect big things to develop.
ATV Motion
is the group leading the way to what will surely become
very popular in our state. The excitement of these
vehicles racing side by side has spectator Appeal.
Couple this with one of the best tracks (Sooner State Cycle Park) and it
spells excitement.
Although the exciting vehicles will attract many of the
auto racing fans there is one thing lacking and that is
grandstands. The auto racing crowd will have to
make the adjustment of bringing their own chairs but
there is a plus side to it. Instead of being
restricted to where they can sit, the crowds will pretty
much be able to catch the action where they want to sit.
Most of the "PRO" UTVs racing in Oklahoma today are ones
costing a few thousand dollars. There are UTVs at the Pro
Level elsewhere costing in excess of $40,000 dollars.
At least one of those pro machines is scheduled to be on display if
not racing at the upcoming June 27th event.
This event is NOT
the beginning of UTV racing in Oklahoma but it will
probably become known as the event that really got it
going. It
is only $5 for a full day of exciting racing and it is
FREE for those under
7. Take your camera and send us YOUR view of the
action. Be There and be a part of something new
being created in Oklahoma.
06-01-09: Oklahoma City -
Jam Sessions -
Jeff Toney
Three of the very best guitarist in the
Nation on the same stage at the same
time - Jamming and bringing more
"Fun
in Oklahoma" than anyone
could imagine!
It
was spectacular to say the least and it was one of those
repeatedly amazing events that occur at random during
the "Break Away Jam Sessions" held weekly in OKC.
Week after week this
event showcases the extreme talent in Oklahoma.
Make no mistake about it, this is NOT Karaoke - it is
some of the very best talent there is, performing on
stage right here in OKC. I promise, you will NOT
be disappointed on any of the weekly jam sessions and
once in awhile you will be a part of something extremely
special such as was the case this past Sunday. On
this night is was not just three of the very best
guitarist in the country but it was also another of
those Break Away Jams that had more remarkable talent
than one could imagine.
It starts at 7pm and
is supposed to end early (11pm) but in this particular
case - the crowd just couldn't get enough plus the word
got out of who was there so more of the top performers
around the city showed up looking for the chance to
perform right along side these amazingly talented
artists and those who did were not disappointed.
Mike Crossno has invited
me to attend some special events coming up and some big
things are in the works, more on that in a couple of
weeks.
