Sylas Ripley recaps his Oxford 250 appearance!
The Oxford 250 is never easy.
It asks a lot of a driver and a team. I stayed focused, kept digging, and gave everything I had right to the end.
Proud of the race we ran and grateful for everyone who put in the work to get us there.
We’ll be back next year. 👊🏁

DriveRefine Performance Management Race Weekend Recap: Oxford 250
Sylas Ripley competed in his third Oxford 250 event at Oxford Plains Speedway on Sunday and into the early hours of Monday morning because of rain.
Ripley made his way into the event with a strong finish in one of the consolation heats. From there, Ripley would go on to start the 53rd Annual Oxford 250 in 29th.
In the first 126 laps of the event, Ripley remained patient and slowly picked off cars one by one. Once the event reached the halfway point, it began to rain, putting a pause on all on-track action. By that point, Sylas was sitting in 13th.
After a multi-hour rain delay, racing action resumed shortly after 11:35 p.m. ET. After getting caught up in an incident, Ripley fell back into the 20s, but that didn't slow him down. Ripley stayed focused, keeping his No. 09 machine clean for the remainder of the event. By the end, the 17-year-old fought his way back up into ninth for his third straight top-10 finish in the Oxford 250.
