Talihina Grand Prix - Talihina, OK


OCCRA and many of its members have had a dream for several years to create our own “Real” Grand Prix event. After several years of trying different venues, we have found an appropriate host with the City of Talihina, Oklahoma. This 120 year old town is nestled in the Kiamichi mountains of southeastern Oklahoma is a perfect setting for a true Grand Prix off road race.
We will start all three of our main races (A & B Big bike classes and Quads) in the middle of downtown Talihina on Main Street which resides between 100 year old buildings. We will race on city streets for about 1.4 miles and then enter the dirt section for another 4-5 miles before winding back up in town. The track will be about 5.5-6.5 miles and we will run each of the A, B, Quad race for 1.5 hours.
The terrain will consist of dirt, gravel, shale, water crossings, mud holes to in town items such as pavement, a table top, and small obstacle course. The entire track is being set up to be very spectator friendly and we are encouraging anyone and everyone to come out to enjoy this event.
