Some of the best in the business drove and rode for for OFIXCO Racing Teams: Ron Shuman, Sammy Swindell, Jerry Stone, Jan Opperman, Dave Bradley, Aaron Lemmons, Ray Crawford, Frazier, Armstrong, Breazeal, Williamson, and more. Unfortunately, the racing operations fell victim to a hostile takeover of the company by shareholders around 1986.
