O’Reilly USMTS Wisconsin invasion kicks off Tuesday night


WEBSTER CITY, Iowa -- When the O’Reilly Auto Parts United States Modified Touring Series released their 54-race schedule of events earlier this year, many race fans in Wisconsin penciled in vacation days from their jobs for the week of June 21-24.

For those who failed to follow suit, this may just be the perfect time to quit the day job, pack up the spouse and kids, and go racing!

The O’Reilly USMTS invasion of the Dairy State begins Tuesday, June 21, with the first of four consecutive nights of unbelievable high-speed Modified action on four of Wisconsin's most unique and legendary dirt ovals.

On Tuesday night, the Langlade County Speedway in Antigo will get the first look at the stars and cars of the O’Reilly USMTS, followed by stops at Thunderhill Raceway in Sturgeon Bay on Wednesday, the Luxemburg Speedway on Thursday and Fox Ridge Speedway in Arcadia on Friday.

Each of the four events carries a top prize of $2,000 for the driver standing in victory lane!
