Ohio International Raceway is one of the foundation tracks for Northern Ohio motocross. Like Smith Road Raceway, OIR has been around forever! Some of the greatest motocross racers in history layed tread marks on this track; back in the day several Trans AMA and National events were held here.
Essentially unchanged for decades, OIR changed management in mid year 2000 and is now run by Hand Racing Promotions. Some of you may remember Dave Hand as one of the fastest racers our area has produced, ranking nationally for several years in the 80's. Hand Racing has spent considerable hours re-facing this famous raceway, and it is now one of the better tracks.
