The Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series kicked off its 2013 season at Firebird Raceway today to sunshine and nearly perfect weather. As usual at Firebird, the stands were packed with excited fans, and the racers were ready to put on a show.

Lucas Oil made some updates to the series this year, as Super Lite and Limited Buggy no longer run at the main races (they have been moved to the regional races). A few on-track rules have adjust as well, as the yellow-flag caution laps no longer count as “raced” laps, meaning that every lap of the race will be … raced.

There was a plenty of door-banging action on tap for today’s round one action, but be sure to check back for coverage of round two tomorrow.
