Ortega Global Solutions Announces All Motor Street Points Series

New York, NY (FPRC) March 23nd, 2011
8:00 A.M.


Ortega Global Solutions (O.G.S.) has added a points series to the already successful All Motor Street Class. This is just one of the heads up classes ran during various OGS events at New Jersey’s two premier drag strips. This concept is being added to a total of 6 OGS events for the 2011 season. The OGS staff continues to be on the cutting edge of motorsports as we look forward to working with the All Motor Street competitors who are dedicated to racing at our brand of events. The purpose of the points series is to increase interest and competition in the all motor ranks and create the breeding ground for future pro stock racers.

This point series for the all motor class will be contested over 6 events between Old Bridge Township Raceway Park and Atco Raceway. Only the best 4 races will count towards each drivers cumulative points. The racers will be competing for a guaranteed event payout in addition to bragging rights and a year end championship purse courtesy of the series sponsors. The nations top naturally aspirated sportsman racers will be battling it out so this promises to be an exciting series for racers and spectators alike.

We are truly happy to announce that K-Tuned and Drag Cartel are our sponsors for this points series chase. Additionally, K-Tuned and Drag Cartel have also stepped up for the All Motor Outlaw class during the Englishtown Fall Nationals event. They have added extra prize money to the tune of $300.00 dollars for the number 1 qualifier along with $100.00 for each driver that qualifies for spots 2 through 8.

Points Information & Guidelines

• Points will start to accrue and be earned at the date of sign up and payment.

• No back dating of points is allowed.

• Points are not transferable from one class to another.

• Current NHRA competition or Raceway Park permanent numbers will be required. Temporary numbers will not be valid to participate in the series.

• The competition number that you sign up with for the points series must remain the same at each event or you will not be awarded points for the day. NO EXCEPTIONS!

• Competition numbers must be displayed clearly on the vehicle.

• If your competition number has been inputted incorrectly (you will be able to check this on your time slip) please notify the control tower so this can be corrected and your points will not be impacted.

• Points discrepancies must be addressed before the start of the next points event. For any points questions or concerns email: ogspoints@gmail.com.

• Competitors may only sign up for one class for each vehicle.

• Drivers receive points not vehicles. Driver substitutions are not permitted.

• Rain-outs – If the race is rained out and able to be rescheduled, points will be awarded on the rescheduled date. If a race is not able to be rescheduled no points will be awarded for that event. If a race gets rained out during the middle of the event, points will only be awarded to completed rounds of qualifying or eliminations for each class (whatever the case may be). For example if an event gets rained out in the middle of a round of qualifying or eliminations for a class points will not be awarded to that class for that particular round.

• Any disqualification will result in loss of points for the day’s event.

• It is the driver’s responsibility to meet all safety and track requirements.

Yes. That is why the series is best of 4.

Unfortunately that means the VWs will have to make every race count. However, they still have a legitimate shot at the championship. If the series were just straight up 6 races, then they would not have a very good chance at winning if they could only race 4 events.

It is a fair way to let everyone play while still keeping the Honda Day events, a honda only race.

Thanks to Jake and OGS for making this happen. I think the best of 4 races is a great compromise that still lets other makes participate. It is much better than being shut out completely. Now I just need to find a way to go a second or more quicker.
