Oxford Plains Speedway
OPS was originally...
A 1/2 mile track, 70 feet wide with a four ft. grade in the turns that cost $35,000 to build. It provided a 600 ft. long grandstand with bleacher style seating for 5,000 and parking for 1,000 cars, concession buildings and a pit area. It took all of six weeks to transform 200 acres of lightly wooded flat land into Maine's most modern racing facility.
OPS is currently...
A 3/8 mile paved oval with short straights and wide, sweeping turns. The Speedway plays host to a Saturday night Oxford Championship Series, a Wednesday night Oxford Acceleration Series, and occasional Motor Mayhem events.
The largest spectator facility in the state of Maine (seating for 14,000)
Home to the Oxford 250. With a purse nearing $200,000 and a guaranteed $25,100 to the winner, the Oxford 250 has been hailed as the richest one-day short track race in America.
