OKLAHOMA CITY, OK. - MXDIRT, in conjunction with, MYLAPS, is pleased to announce that Reynard Raceway, located in Wellston, Oklahoma, has become the first track in the state of Oklahoma to install a transponder system that will be used for live timing and scoring of their racing events and practices.

Reynard Raceway, recently purchased by longtime professional and former World SX Champion, Robbie Reynard, consists of approximately 161 rolling acres with a 4,000 square-foot lodge. It is fast becoming a premier motocross track for the state and makes the perfect partner to implement a transponder system into Oklahoma racing. Transponder systems are widely used across the nation in a variety of racing sports and will bring many benefits to Oklahoma Motocross.

The transponder system, which has been installed at Reynard Raceway, has been tested in weekend practices and has been received very favorably by the riders. Riders like the real time scoring capability and accuracy of the transponders. Riders also state that, knowing their lap times in real time has already pushed them to compete with themselves to better their times. “Transponders will help take our facility to new heights, not only racing, but for my schools and training,” says Robbie Reynard. “I am really excited about the improvements we are making at the track each and every week. Adding this system will help our athletes reach the next level.”

"We are extremely excited to welcome Reynard Raceway to the MXDIRT team and program," said MXDIRT’s Bob Hansen. "Robbie obviously has a lot of experience with using transponders from his own career and understands the value that transponders provide with timing and scoring of events and MX training. Robbie's personal values and business plan are in sync with our own which allows for this partnership between MXDIRT and Reynard Raceway. We have placed a MYLAPS transponder system at Robbie's facility for his races, practice and his Robbie Reynard MX Schools. Robbie brings a lot to the plate with his experience and we can't think of a better person and voice to have on our team to introduce transponders to motocross in Oklahoma.

By working with, @Link WI-Fi, from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Reynard Raceway will become completely Wi-Fi accessible. By combining transponders with Wi-Fi access, it will allow competitors, family members, and spectators the ability to view live lap times, race results, and live video stream in real-time. Imagine being able to view the event from any computer whether from the trailers in the pit area or from the comfort of your own home. Today, with the use of Smartphone, laptops, I Touch's and I Pads, Wi-Fi allows the opportunity to provide and expand locally on something currently being used only in national amateur motocross events or professional motocross racing.

MYLAPS Sports Timing (previously known as AMB i.t. US), a multi-million dollar company based in Holland, is the world’s leader in automatic timing and scoring systems for motorsports. References using MYLAPS transponder systems include NASCAR, IRL, IMSA, ESPN X-Games, Tour de France, AMA Lucas Oil Outdoor Motocross Championships, as well as a long list of amateur tracks throughout the U.S. Amanda Mason with MYLAPS Sports Timing states: “Our team at MYLAPS is very excited and proud to work with MXDIRT and Reynard Raceway in this new project. We feel that our partnership will help take Oklahoma Motocross to the next level, by enhancing the sports experience not only for riders, their families, and fans, but for track owners and promoters as well. We are looking forward eagerly to the first race!”

Reynard Raceway is focused on providing the best riding facility possible to the state of Oklahoma and the South Central region. With lodging and RV facilities, along with Wi-Fi access, the track has much to offer. The lodge has six bedrooms, three baths, two living rooms/rec rooms, over-sized, fully-equipped kitchen with huge walk-in pantry/storage room, utility room, and an 800 square-foot screened in porch and central air. There are two natural terrain motocross tracks (each two miles long featuring huge uphill’s, downhill’s, off camber corners, berms, whoops, double jumps and table tops), an eight-mile cross-country track/trail, centrally located two-story scoring tower (with restroom and garage downstairs), air-conditioned/heated restroom facilities with showers, 20 RV hookups and six stocked ponds. By the look of the events that they are hosting this year, the AMA South Central Loretta Lynn Qualifier, the NMA Grand National Ponca City Qualifier, and the Oklahoma State Championship Series (OSCS), Reynard Raceway is well on their way to attaining their goals.

MXDIRT, in conjunction with partner Red Earth Systems, currently hosts and maintains five of the local motocross facilities websites including Reynard Raceway's. Along with the track websites, MXDIRT also maintains their own website dedicated to motocross in Oklahoma. “We are building a very strong team and have great facilities here in Oklahoma to take motocross and our events to another level.” "This project has been in the works for some time," states MXDIRT’s Bob Hansen, "Thanks to Reynard Raceway, @Link Wi-Fi, MYLAPS and Red Earth Systems for working with MXDIRT to put all the pieces in place."
