Naples ME – June 4th – Officials at the Pro All Stars Series (PASS) and Oxford Plains Speedway (OPS) are thrilled to announce Bar Harbor Bank & Trust has agreed to be the title partner for the 51st annual Oxford 250. The Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Oxford 250 is known as one of the biggest short track races in the country and will be contested on August 25th 2024.
Bar Harbor Bank & Trust has been serving the financial needs of Northern New England residents and businesses since it was founded in 1887. Recognized by Forbes as one of the “World’s Best Banks” for multiple years, Bar Harbor Bank & Trust offers a full range of personal and business banking services and wealth management services through its subsidiary, Bar Harbor Wealth Management. Bar Harbor Bank & Trust provides the technology offerings and capabilities you would expect from a larger bank, as well as a personal approach to banking that customers desire, including a full-service network of more than 50 branches and 90 ATMs across Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.
“As an award-winning bank, we understand the commitment and hard work it takes to take the checkered flag, which is why we are proud to sponsor the 51st Annual Oxford 250,” said Joseph Schmitt, SVP, Chief Marketing Officer at Bar Harbor Bank & Trust. “The Oxford 250 is one of the world’s best short track races, and we look forward to an exciting day of racing on August 25.”
The Oxford 250 is widely known as one of the premier short track races in America. Starting off as a 200 lap event in 1974 won by Joey Kourafas, the Oxford 250 quickly morphed into the biggest one day short track race in America that every racer dreamed of winning. Nationally known racers like Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, Ricky Craven, and Bubba Pollard have won previous editions of the crown jewel, while many others like Jeff Gordon, Kenny Wallace, and Brothers Bobby and Terry Labonte have attempted. Home track advantage often provides a needed edge for drivers like Mike Rowe, Dave Dion, and Ralph Nason who have all etched their name on the trophy multiple times throughout their illustrious careers.
With $25,000 plus lap money up for grabs, 49 of the best drivers in the country have already entered the 51st annual Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Oxford 250. To see the current and up to date list please go the Pro All Stars Series Website at www.proallstarsseries.com
Also in action over the three day extravaganza will be the New England Super Modified Series (NESS), The Kennebec Equipment Rental PASS MODS, The Little Webbs Market 350 Super Series, along with all the OPS support divisions.
