Eight Events For Lucas Oil Off Road In 2016

The Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series has set its 2016 schedule of events.

Taking a page from years past, the series will get underway with a visit to Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park in Chandler, Ariz., in mid-March. Five weeks later the series will head further west to visit Lake Elsinore (Calif.) Motorsports Park. After that, May will see the series return south of the border to Estero Beach in Ensenada, Baja California, México.

After another four-week break, the series will then make its way back to Tooele Motorsports Park, just outside Salt Lake City, Utah, before returning to Glen Helen Motorsports Park for the season’s first night race in late July. August will see the series make another trek north, this time to Wild West Motorsports Park in Sparks, Nev., with the series then making a second stop at Lake Elsinore in September for the season’s final night race event.

The season will end with an Arizona bookending, with Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park again hosting the final regular season race of the year, as well as the Lucas Oil Challenge Cup, in late October.

“We are honored to be able to release the 2016 Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series Schedule,” said Series Director Ritchie Lewis. “We look forward to kicking things off at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park, as we tackle 15 rounds of scheduled points events, before bringing things full circle and ending up back at Wild Horse Pass again to complete the 2016 tour with the Lucas Oil Challenge Cup. We will also continue with the international fan favorite Baja International Short Course, which will move to a new, springtime date in May of 2016.

“There were many inquiries about new venues for 2016 and beyond,” Lewis added. “We are looking at some possibilities for 2017, however our focus in the upcoming off season is to begin a busy winter of work on our existing tracks.”
