Glenn Styres

Glenn Styres, also known as The Ohsweken Flyer, #0, is the track owner, multiple-time promoter of the year and self-made business magnate. He is also arguably the winningest and most thrilling driver of Ohsweken Speedway history. But in 2019, Glenn took a break from racing. And he did not like it. In fact, Glenn sat in the stands, week after week, cheering on all the Glenn Styres Racing team members with a brave face, but he was anything but thrilled. Through it all, Glenn was secretly going through some personal misery from the sidelines. So he got back into it, against the advice of doctors, family and friends. Glenn needs to drive. And Glenn needs to win. So after COVID-19 derailed the entire 2020 and 2021 seasons at Ohsweken Speedway, Glenn decided to make the most of that time. He sunk millions into his race track, making it safer, adding VIP suites and more facilities. He expanded the campgrounds and parking areas around the track and set up some new business, like an auto parts shop.

In the fall of 2022, Glenn rolled out the first chassis his company has built under GSR Chassis. These distinct blue chrome-effect chassis are the first race cars to be built on Indigenous territory and yet another innovation by Glenn Styres Racing. Friday Night Thunder will take an inside look at this operation and get the inside scoop on how a race car is built from zero.

Glenn might be the businessman who has it all, but there’s one thing Glenn feels incomplete without and that’s racing. He didn’t perform so well in 2022 at his track or the neighbouring tracks. He just couldn’t find the right groove with his crew chief or his set ups. So, he’ll be getting seat time in the off-season to prepare for what he hopes to be a much more successful season at Ohsweken Speedway in 2023. In Season 4 we will find out how Glenn and his new GSR Chassis business fair on the track.
