Track Spotlight - Flamboro Speedway

Flamboro Speedway has played an important part in the history of OSCAAR through the years, including hosting one of the inaugural events for The Fyre Place & Patio Shop OSCAAR Hot Rods presented by Bromley Automotive.

The partnership together will continue through the 2026 campaign, with the track set to host OSCAAR on four different occasions throughout the season.

"With Dave (Gainforth) back looking after the OSCAAR guys, it's more likely they will have decent car counts for all the divisions they are running, which is a good thing as when you have cars, you also have people," Flamboro Speedway track owner Frank Casale shared. "That's how it works and they do put on a good show. So looking forward to those guys being back. This year, the three divisions are running back together, and that helps a lot."

Track Size - 0.333-mile semi-banked oval

Address - 873 5th Concession Rd W, Millgrove, ON L0R 1V0

Date #1 - May 9, 2026

This will be one of the most unique events of the season for the first ever "Beat the Clock Challenge" set to take place. The event includes a unique non-points format that will allow drivers to test and tune for the upcoming season with some bragging rights on the line.

The Fyre Place & Patio Shop OSCAAR Hot Rods will compete in time trials, with the top three drivers sharing a $500 purse. Following time trials, the field will be lined up for a 25-lap feature event for their normal payout. As a non-points race, the emphasis will be purely on speed, performance, and the honour of capturing the first trophy of the 2026 season.

Both the Overkill Enterprises OSCAAR Modifieds and the JRS Auctions OSCAAR Super Late Models presented by Just Foam It will participate in two rounds of practice and time trials, each division battling for the fastest lap of the night. A $1,000 purse will be split among the top three drivers in each division, setting the stage for some of the most intense and competitive laps fans will see all year—where a tenth of a second can make the difference between cashing in or coming up short.

They will be joined by the Ontario Pro Challenge Series and Southern Ontario Modified Association (SOMA), as well as the track's home track Mini Stock and Pure Stock divisions.

The most important event of the year is the season opener, right? Well, that will be taking place at Flamboro Speedway in a big way as OSCAAR will host a trio of memorial races to kick off the 2026 championship season.

The OSCAAR Super Late Models will battle for 50 laps in hopes of taking the checkered flag in the Don Biederman Memorial.

The OSCAAR Modifieds will battle for 47 laps in hopes of claiming the honor of winning the inaugural Brian McLean Memorial.

The OSCAAR Hot Rods will battle for 46 laps in the fourth annual Bill Zardo Memorial. Previous winners include Tyler Hawn (2024 and 2025) and Cole Weber (2023).

The Ontario Pro Challenge Series will also be on-hand to do battle for a pair of features.

Date #3 - June 30, 2026

Canada will be turning 159 years old on Wednesday, July 1. So it makes sense the day before we celebrate the country's birthday in style by going as fast as possible.

The OSCAAR Super Late Models will partake one of Flamboro's biggest events each season - the Gold Rush 126. The event which includes a big pay check for the winner has drawn competitors from across the province as well as the northern United States to make the trip to the track in past years in hopes of being victorious. Last year saw Shawn Chenoweth pick up the checkered flag and a healthy cut of the $53,000 total purse that was offered.

The night will also feature a 40 lap invitational for the Pure Stocks, which always draws the best out from the track's home division and drivers across the province. Last year, fans witnessed 48 drivers try and qualify for the 30-car starting line up.

Date #4 - October 3, 2026

There is nothing like the four-race stretch to end the season in knowing there's bragging rights and championships on the line, and Flamboro will be apart of that in hosting the third event in that stretch.

OSCAAR will once again take part in the annual Frostoberfest weekend, hoping to leave their mark in a weekend that will include a variety of divisions. All three divisions - OSCAAR Super Late Models, OSCAAR Modifieds, and OSCAAR Hot Rods - will be partaking in the action. However, for the SLMs, there is more on the line in knowing this will be the weekend the champion for 2026 is crowned.

The night of racing will also feature Great Lakes Legends, Outlaw Midgets presented by Glenn Styres Racing, Street Stocks, and Mini Trucks.
