JRP Speedway -- Owned by former International Road Racer Alf Gebhardt. Born in Germany, Mr. Gebhardt began racing in 1960 and has raced at such prestigious tracks as Riverside, Sebring and Daytona. Now a U.S. citizen, he began doing business in Tulsa in 1972 with the purchase of a BMW dealership. Mr. Gebhardt started teaching children racing on parking lots in town and then built a go-kart track in 1994 with a driving school and racing series for children which he runs to this day. In March 2004 he opened JRP Speedway's ¼ mile asphalt oval where Mini Stocks, Factory Stocks, Dwarf Cars, Modifieds and Outlaw Stocks race every Saturday night during a season that runs from April through October.
