Topeka, Kan. (Jan. 31, 2005) -- The O'Reilly National Championship Racing Association (NCRA), presented by Hoosier Racing Tires, has announced a few changes to their 2005 Late Model schedule.

The dates for the season opening Memorial Day weekend have been moved up at both Mid-Nebraska Speedway and Nebraska Raceway Park. The series will now race at Mid-Nebraska Speedway on May 27, rather than the previously announced May 289, and at NRB on May 29 instead of May 30.

The July 1 race at Nebraska Raceway Park has been confirmed and the originally scheduled July 30 date at State Fair Speedway in Oklahoma City, Okla., has been removed from the schedule.
