HARLI WHITE TO JOIN OCRS THIS WEEKEND!
Tulsa Oklahoma
(May 23. 2012) – Lindsay Oklahoma’s Harli White will make her return to the
Oil Capital Racing Series this Memorial Day weekend in a 2011 Maxim sprint car
equipped with a Gerald Brand Engine. The car is fitted with her traditional
number 17W and is sponsored by Charlie's Trucking and Forklift and Jerry Tucker
Roustabout and Rentals. White’s first 2012 OCRS appearance will be Friday night
at the Thunderbird Speedway in Muskogee Oklahoma and then on Saturday night,
the talent laden pilot will look towards the north as OCRS will roll across the
state line into the Caney Valley Speedway in Caney Kansas.
The 17-year-old
racer last competed with OCRS exactly one year ago at the Oklahoma Sports Park
in Ada, Oklahoma. Driving a Larry Neighbors owned car that night, White
transferred from B main to A main and finished a respectable 11th
out of 20 starters in her first an only night of OCRS competition. White is an accomplished micro sprint
racer and has won several micro features in cars equipped with or without
wings. White is excited to be
returning to sprint car action. “I have been waiting to get back into a sprint
car forever,” explained White. “This car is a former Barry McCord car. It has
only been raced once this season and there are no races on the motor. There
were plans to race the micro more this year but those plans have changed and we
got the sprint car to race.”

White becomes the second female racer on the OCRS roster
for 2012 as fellow racer Shayla Waddell from Oklahoma City has been with the
series since 2010. Waddell captured her initial OCRS victory last Saturday
night at the Salina Highbanks Speedway becoming the first woman to visit
victory lane in OCRS competition. When White was asked if she had heard about
Waddell’s achievement White replied; “Oh yea, I heard about that and I was so
happy to hear she won it. That was exciting news to hear.” In a male dominated
sport, race fans are all very familiar with the talents of these women. Catch
these speedy gals and their OCRS colleagues at a track near you for a night of
fast n’ wild racing action!

Yes, Miss Shayla Waddell in a Sentry Shores / PM PRO / Production Engines / Eagle Chassis mount.
The buzz over that win is amazing.

FANTASTIC NEWS!!! Stand on the gas Harli. Take it to the front. I am a huge fan of this young lady. To come back and race and race well after what she went through is simply amazing. She has WAY more guts than I do.
