The unique partnership between the URSS and IMCA EMI RaceSaver Sprint Cars in 2016 allows drivers from area states to compete for the first time at RPM Speedway with the URSS and earn IMCA points. This will be the first of three appearances by the Rebels in 2016.
Last year Koby Walters scored his first URSS feature win at the opening race at RPM. The young Liberal driver put on a show as he motored his way to the win. As always the United Rebel Sprint Series is full of young guns and experienced veterans that will always put on a show for the fans in the stands. 2016 has already shown the parity in the series is here to stay as three different drivers have graced Victory Lane in the first three races.
