About Greg Owens

Racing is a family sport to the Owens. Greg has a lot of support on and off the track.

Greg started racing when he was just '18' years old in the Mini Stock Class. Greg won features, a 'most improved award', and several points awards before moving on to the purestock class. He raced in the purestock class for several years before moving up to the Superstock Class, which is still races.

Some of the tracks he has raced at: Lawrenceburg, North Vernon (Twin Cities), Osgood, Moler Raceway Park, ThunderValley, Bloomington, Union County Speedway, and Lincoln Park Speedway. His favorite places to race are at County Fairs. Some of the fairgrounds he has raced at are: Brownstown, Bloomington, Osgood, Madison, Scottsburg and Greensburg.

Greg is employed as an operator at Omara Contracting in North Vernon, Indiana. Greg marriedto Victoria (Short) Owens July 7th, 2007. Greg has two children, Natalie and Braden, and two step-children, Briana and Evan.

His wife Victoria grew up around racing, and the fit came together. VIctoria, in support of her husband, started the racing news site, Indiana Dirt Scoops, which took off and grew to more than 8 states, and now is known as "Dirt Scoops". The site primarily promotes small town tracks and drivers, hoping to help get thier name out and to help them in the economically challenged world today, to keep the racing sport alive.

Greg's other passion when not racing, is hunting. He primarily loves to bow hunt.
