TULSA, Okla. (December 25, 2015) With the 30th annual Lucas Oil Chili Bowl National presented by General Tire only a couple weeks away, Jon Kantor of Hard 8 Racing, and Jason Wright of Xtreme Racing and Entertainment, are pleased to announce the addition of Xtreme Racing and Entertainment as an official marketing partner with Hard 8 Racing for the next two years.
Happening January 12-16, 2016 inside the River Spirit Expo Center, Hard 8 Racing has confirmed two entries for the world’s largest indoor Micro Sprint Car event with Broken Arrow’s Jonathan Beason and Sapulpa’s Blake Hahn set to represent the Xtreme Racing and Entertainment brand.
To kick off the partnership, Hard 8 Racing, in conjunction with Xtreme Racing and Entertainment will hold a "Meet and Greet", at Xtreme's indoor go-kart facility on Sunday, January 3, from 1:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. (CT); followed by an afternoon of "Race the Racers", from 3:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. that will culminate with a shootout race, whereby the top 6 racers, from lap times, will race against Blake Hahn and Jonathan Beason.
Based in Tulsa, Okla. the Hard 8 Racing team has had a long history of success in Motorsports across multiple levels of Sprint Car racing. Formed in 2003 with the goal of running NCRA, the team progressed to the Lucas Oil ASCS National Tour and finally the World of Outlaws until ending their traveling operations in April, 2008.
Still a part of dirt track racing, the 2016 season marks the 10th year of competition in the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals. In nine previous years, Hard 8 Racing has made five A-Feature appearances and has won preliminary nights on two occasions in 2011 with the late Donnie Ray Crawford, and 2014 with Jonathan Beason.
Keeping their choice of marketing partners close to home, Xtreme Racing and Entertainment is located at 71st and Elm in Broken Arrow. Opening over the summer of 2015, Xtreme Racing and Entertainment features two indoor asphalt tracks with electric Karts that have been clocked reaching speeds close to 50mph.
