- Post delivers career-best PDTR 360 Sprint Car performance
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) July 23, 2024 - In his third season behind the wheel of a Sprint Car, Randy Post established not one, but two career firsts in Akright Auto Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car competition at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, July 20. Post opened his breakout night by turning in the 12th fastest qualifying lap in the 23-car field in a time of 13.793 seconds. The Oostburg, Wis. driver then lined up on the pole of the first eight-lap PDTR-MSA heat race and went on to lead every lap on the way to his first career heat race victory in the seat of a 360 Sprint Car. The 10-car main event inversion dice roll landed Post on the pole of the 25-lap PDTR-MSA A-main. The former Street Stock competitor settled into second in the running order behind eventual race winner T.J. Smith on the opening lap of the main event. Post maintained the runner-up spot through the first 13 laps until Ben Schmidt took over second on lap 14. As the leaders worked through thick lapped traffic, Brandon Berth snuck past to move Post to third when a red flag was displayed after Ben Schmidt hit the turn three wall and flipped on lap 18. The final seven laps saw Justin Erickson, Alex Pokorski and T.J. Haddy slip past before Post came home with a career-best sixth place A-main showing. "We didn't really do a whole lot different for qualifying," Post said. "We changed our starting stagger and just went into it with a mentality to go out and see what happens. The heat win was a first in the Sprint Car. We had a few heat wins in the Street Stock in 2021. But those didn't feel nearly as good as this one did. "After watching the track evolve throughout the rest of the heat races, I knew no matter what kind of track work they did, it was going to dry out," he said. "I was hoping the track would be smooth, so we tried some new shock adjustments and a few different small adjustments to the car with a goal of finishing in the top five, while trying not to put too much pressure on getting a particular result. We just wanted to have fun and try out some new adjustments. I was very pleased with the way the race went and I was very, very pleased with the results." The Randy Post Racing Team will return to action with the Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car Series for the annual Harry Neitzel Tribute Race at the Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Friday, July 26. The Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series and IMCA Modifieds will also be in action. Spectator gates open at 5 p.m. with warm-ups at 6 p.m. and hot laps to follow before opening ceremonies at 7:15 p.m. Post will complete a doubleheader weekend with the Plymouth Dirt Track Racing-MSA 360 Sprint Car Series at The Plymouth Dirt Track on Saturday, July 27, which will also feature the third scheduled Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series event of the 2024 campaign at The Plymouth Dirt Track. The Sheboygan Flooring B Mods round out the card. Grandstand gates open at 4:30 p.m. with "on-track action" scheduled to commence at 5:30 p.m. Sponsorship partners and supporters of Randy Post and the 2024 Randy Post Racing Team include Luedtke Electric, Sunset Auto, Akright Auto, Oostburg Automotive and Progress Manufacturing Inc.

- Pokorski nets top-five, vaults to peak of PDTR 360 Sprint Car heap
(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) July 23, 2024 - As the 2024 racing season traverses the half-way point, the Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team appears to be hitting its stride. In a season hindered by rainouts and curfew-infringed events, Pokorski completed the team's fourth full night of competition in 11 tries with the Plymouth Dirt Track Racing 360 Sprint Cars by turning in a strong fourth place A-main performance at The Plymouth Dirt Track in Plymouth, Wis. on Saturday, July 20 to move to the top step in the PDTR 360 Sprint Car points standings. The fifth-year Sprint Car driver opened the night by qualifying ninth overall in the 23-car field with a lap of 13.707 seconds around the third-mile clay oval. After the scheduled outside front row starter scratched from the race, the West Bend, Wis. driver moved up a spot to roll off from the outside front row starting position in the first eight-lap PDTR-Midwest Sprint Car Association heat race. The 2023 Plymouth Dirt Track Racing and Midwest Sprint Car Association Most Improved Driver Award winner ducked low to slip past polesitter Scott Conger and take the lead in the second turn of the opening lap. Pokorski cruised from there to post his second PDTR-MSA 360 Sprint Car heat race victory of the 2024 campaign. A 10-car inversion saw Pokorski start fourth in the 25-lap PDTR-MSA 360 Sprint Car A-main. Pokorski drove a smooth race on the smooth, dry and multi-groove racing surface while hovering between third and sixth in the running order. When the leaders hit heavy lapped traffic on lap 14, Pokorski skillfully weaved through a gaggle of slower cars to secure the fifth spot before a red flag appeared on lap 18 when Ben Schmidt collided with the turn three wall and flipped. When the race resumed, Pokorski was able to pick up one more spot as he worked his way past Randy Post to secure fourth on lap 21. The new PDTR 360 Sprint Car points leader held on over the final four laps to secure a fourth-place finish, which marked his second top-five and fifth top-10 main event showing of the 2024 PDTR-MSA season. "We had good speed all night," Pokorski said. "I needed to find the top a little sooner near the end of the feature. If I had found it a lap or two sooner, we could've finished third. It's fun to race back and forth with some of the guys. I think the competition has improved a bit this year, so it has required us to work harder to get top-five finishes. I'm looking forward to the doubleheader this weekend." The Alex Pokorski-Akright Auto Racing Team is set to compete in a doubleheader weekend with the Midwest Sprint Car Association 360 Sprint Car Series starting with the annual Harry Neitzel Tribute Race at the Dodge County Fairgrounds Speedway in Beaver Dam, Wis. on Friday, July 26. The Bumper to Bumper Interstate Racing Association 410 Sprint Car Series and IMCA Modifieds will also be in action.

- NARC SPRINT CARS SET TO BATTLE FOR $6,900 HOWARD KAEDING CLASSIC PAYDAY AT OCEAN SPEEDWAY
(7/8/24 - Ben Deatherage) Watsonville, California ... The gorgeous and scenic Ocean Speedway is set to host the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series on Saturday, July 13th, for the 14th Annual Howard Kaeding Classic. Up for grabs will be one of the largest race purses of the season, including a huge $6,900 payday for the winner of the 30-lap feature event. "This event has gotten bigger and better each year, and it gains more and more momentum," commented event organizer Bud Kaeding, Howard's grandson. "The campground is full, and the afterparty Friday night has grown tremendously. It's turned into a really fun event. I've been fortunate enough to have a bunch of support not just in the local area but across the country helping me raise money for the purse, and there have been guys that have been there since the first one, and it's really cool to see the involvement and support." The race pays homage to Howard Kaeding, the patriarch of the legendary Kaeding racing family. Kaeding was victorious in 136 main events at the now-defunct San Jose Speedway, which is an all-time record. He won track titles at San Jose in 1973 and 1974 and boasted an incredible streak of 17 consecutive wins, all while starting in the rear of the field. The event features multiple sponsors and contributors to enhance the purse. Companion divisions include the IMCA Modifieds, Hobby Stocks, and WMR Midgets. The track will open the weekend with a Friday night bout featuring the Ocean 360 Sprints, IMCA Northern Sport Mods, Hobby Stocks, and WMR Midgets. Once the racing concludes on Friday, there will be an "afterparty" fully catered by the High Five Pizza Company. On Saturday at noon, the annual Howard Kaeding Luncheon will take place in the large tent in the pit area. Both events benefit the NARC Benevolent Fund and will feature live music. A suggested donation of a minimum of $20 would be appreciated for each function. Who To Watch Cole Macedo has only participated in the Howard Kaeding Classic twice. The last time he raced with NARC at Ocean, he was seventh in 2019. The Lemoore racer, aboard the Tarlton Motorsports #21, has logged a ton of laps at the facility over his career and would love to add a NARC win at the Howard Kaeding Classic to his impressive resume. Runner-up last year, Justin Sanders has been the man at Ocean. The Aromas ace has managed to post four career Howard Kaeding Classic podiums, including winning in 2022. Overall, Watsonville has treated the driver of the Mittry Motorsports #2X rather nicely, with three wins and nine podium finishes in twenty-four starts. Macedo and Sanders are tied for the NARC championship point lead after 16 events of the 23-race campaign. Defending race winner Shane Golobic was ecstatic at the drop of the checkered flag in last year's HK Classic. The Fremont racer had won four times at the facility with NARC but finally got the win at the Kaeding after finishing second in 2014, 2016, and 2019. Running for Bates-Hamilton Racing, Justyn Cox will look to click off a big payday for his team. Now calling Roseville home, Cox's best run at Ocean with NARC was in 2016 when he finished fifth at the Pombo-Sargent Classic. His best performance at the Kaeding was twelfth in that same year. He already has garnered a big win with the series at a similarly shaped track at Cottage Grove earlier this season. Speaking of Kaeding, Bud will look to add another win of this sentimental event to his family to his name. The Campbell chauffeur won his grandfather's race in 2019 and 2014 and was fourth in the 2023 edition. Also, the 2017 NARC champion has had the second-highest wins on the track since 2000, making five trips to victory lane. Speaking of Williams Motorsports, they have won this race an amazing five times: Jonathan Allard (2012 & 2013), the two times with Bud Kaeding mentioned above, and Kyle Hirst (2020). Hirst has an amazing record for this race as he has won it the most times, three, with three different car owners! This includes Roth Motorsports in 2015, Tarlton Motorsports in 2016, and with Williams in 2020. Tim Kaeding will be in the field with the Williams Motorsports team. Calling San Jose home, the 2002 and 2011 NARC title winner is the most winningest driver at Ocean with NARC since 2000, with seven visits to victory lane. However, he has yet to win the Howard Kaeding Classic. His career-best was second in 2011 and was third in last year's race. Kaeding has only been outside the Top 10 four times in his previous 22 NARC starts at Ocean. Caeden Steele from Easton cut his teeth at Ocean over the last few seasons. With all his remarkable runs this season, it would be a big moment if he could break through and open his NARC-winning account at this event. In the last two seasons, he's made the show and is looking for his first Top 10 at the HK Classic. Based on his 2024 performances, that seems to be an achievable goal. It'll be a home game of sorts for Gilroy's Jarrett Soares. Soares has ten feature starts at Ocean when NARC has been to town, and his best finish was tenth in 2016. Tanner Carrick of Lincoln will be in the house. He was 11th last year but had a masterclass run in 2021 when he was the runner-up. A shark to be on the lookout for at Ocean is 2005 NARC champion, Sean Becker. The driver of the Don Bjork owned entry from Roseville could become a two-time HK Classic winner backing up his first win in 2021. Other Rookie runners to watch this weekend are Clovis' Dominic Gorden and Gauge Garcia from Lemoore. Both drivers have also run a lot of laps at this facility in their young careers and will look to put that to good use. Additional NARC regulars in attendance will be Dylan Bloomfield from Oakley, Penngrove's Chase Johnson, Nick Parker of Chico, Benecia's Billy Aton, DJ Netto of Hanford, John Clark of Windsor, Ryan Bernal of Roseville. Fan & Competitor Info Ocean Speedway is located on the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds at 2601 E Lake Avenue in Watsonville. The Pit Gates will open at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday; Front Gates at 3:30 p.m., and qualifying will kick off at 5:00 p.m. The NARC 410 Sprint Series is the leading 410 Sprint Car tour west of the Rocky Mountains.

- NARC SPRINT CARS HEADED TO CHICO FOR DAVID TARTER MEMORIAL ON JUNE 29TH
(6/25/24 - Ben Deatherage) Chico, California ... The cars and stars of the NARC 410 Sprint Series return to Silver Dollar Speedway on Saturday, June 29th, for the David Tarter Memorial. This is the last chance for fans to catch the 900+ horsepower fire breathing monsters of the NARC circuit kick the clay and take your breath away at the historic 1/4-mile oval. The super competitive NARC 410 Sprint Car Series has featured nine different winners in as many events during the month of June and ten overall this season in 14-events. "This is a really special race for this track," said longtime Silver Dollar Speedway announcer Troy Hennig, "It's a great honor to have known David (Tarter), and it's fantastic that his family can come together and do so much for this race and be involved in making it better every year." The race is run in honor of David Tarter, who tragically lost his life on June 8th, 2012, in a freak pit accident at Silver Dollar. Since 2013, there have been five winners of the Tarter Memorial, including the all-time leader Kyle Hirst, who has had five triumphs. Corey Day is the defending champion, winning the most recent one in 2022, while Sean Becker, Craig Stidham, and Justin Sanders join him as one-time winners of the race. Several raffle prizes will be offered, including a special David Tarter helmet, a pair of specially crafted embroidered quilts, several gift cards, and commemorative apparel. The money raised from these items will go into the purse and be put towards the 360 bonus. It will also go to the Enloe Medical Center, benefiting children with an extended hospital stay. To purchase any merchandise, secure a lap sponsor, or contribute to the 360 sprint car bonus award, please get ahold of Shelly via her cell phone at (530) 513-1500 or directly on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/shelley.tarter.9. The NorCal Dwarf Car Association will be the companion division for the entire weekend. Friday, June 28th, kicks off the racing weekend and will feature non-sanctioned 410 Sprint Car, Hobby Stock, and IMCA Northern SportMod action for the Brownell & Herseth Memorial. Who To Watch Lemoore's Cole Macedo enters the event as the series point leader and is coming off a third-place result at the Super Dirt Cup finale last Saturday. Macedo put the Tarlton Motorsports entry in victory lane last March when he won a thrilling Mini Gold Cup. With three wins on the year so far, he will carry a slim five-point advantage into Saturday night. Out of Aromas, Sanders is looking to return to his winning ways at Silver Dollar Speedway after getting fourth on the last night of Dirt Cup. Already scoring three NARC wins in 2024, the pilot of the Mittry Motorsports team and current runner-up in the points table has two career wins with the series at Chico when the tour came to town. Roseville racer Justyn Cox is looking to score his second win of the current campaign and will hope to add a NARC victory at Chico to his resume. Currently third in the title race, the Bates-Hamilton Racing driver is currently third in the championship, with his best SDS NARC finish being a seventh in 2013, and he was ninth back in the Spring. Rookie runner Caeden Steele emerged fourth in points after the long Northwest Swing. The recent High School valedictorian graduate from Easton posted his first career NARC podium at the Mini Gold Cup in March, showing everyone that he is a young man who can contend for wins this year. Since then, he has been consistently fast and has been close to earning his first career series win. When the series last visited Chico, 2017 NARC champion Bud Kaeding was fifth. The Campbell chauffeur has earned two NARC wins at the track since 2000, with wins coming in 2009 and 2015. He is fifth in NARC points. Oakley's Dylan Bloomfield had a great run at the Mini Gold Cup, ending his night fourth in the Vertullo Racing-fielded mount, and was second at the non-sanctioned Fair Race during Memorial Day weekend. Bloomfield is another young talent that has been close to achieving that breakthrough first career NARC win. Chase Johnson was ultra-fast during the last Chico visit in March and led many laps. The Penngrove pilot is undoubtedly determined to win, as he showed cheetah speed in both Spring races and was the runner-up in the non-sanctioned Mini Gold Cup prelim on March 15th. 2019 NARC champion D.J. Netto has the most 410 wins at Silver Dollar Speedway in 2024. Winning the first night of the Mini Gold Cup weekend and the Fair Race in May, the Hanford racer hopes to score his first Chico win with NARC; his best finish was a second in 2017. Fremont's Shane Golobic is hungry for a Chico win in 2024 with NARC. He was second at the Mini Gold Cup and already has won with the series in the current campaign with a triumph at Thunderbowl Raceway in May. If he could score the victory on Saturday, it would be the first time he's beaten the series at Silver Dollar. Andy Forsberg is always a driver to watch. Winning the 410 track championships in 2006, 2008, and 2017, the Auburn driver has only achieved a single NARC win when the series came to town—that was back in 2003. But Forsberg is a driver you can't discount and is always a threat to win when he shows up in the pit area. The aforementioned Becker is another veteran who should not be written off as he has six 410 track titles to his credit including five in a row from 2012-16. Living in Roseville, he wowed everyone with an impressive runner-up at Stockton's Salute to LeRoy Van Conett in May. The 2005 NARC champion has yet to finish the year outside the Top 10 in the three 410 shows Chico has put on and was seventh at the Mini Gold Cup after starting a deep in twenty-second. He has four NARC victories at Chico, getting winner's checks in 2003, 2005, and twice in 2006. The rest of the NARC 410 regular contingent includes Skagit Speedway Super Dirt Cup preliminary winner Dominic Gorden of Clovis, Gauge Garcia of Lemoore, Chico's Nick Parker, Billy Aton representing Benecia, and Lincoln gasser Tanner Carrick. Other Californian competitors in the crowd will be Wilton's Ashlyn Rodriguez, Michael Ing from Chico, Concord teenager Joey Ancona, Jarrett Soares of Gilroy, and many more.

- FASTEST FIVE DAYS IN MOTORSPORTS AWAITS NARC 410 SPRINT CARS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST
(6/6/24 - Ben Deatherage) ... The wait is almost over as the 900+ horsepower open wheel racing machines of the NARC 410 Sprint Car Series journey north for the Fastest Five Days in Motorsports! During a quick 120-hour span, the series will feature five races at five different racetracks across Oregon and Washington in five nights. For many of the tracks, it is their only 410 cubic inch sprint car race of the year. The racing extravaganza will kick off on Wednesday, June 12th, at Southern Oregon Speedway before moving northward to the Douglas County Dirt Track in Roseburg on Thursday, the 13th. Friday, the 14th will see the newly added Cottage Grove Speedway as a part of the mix and will be the first 410 race at the historic ¼-mile clay oval since 2014. Willamette Speedway is back with their Saturday date on the 15th. All roads will come to a head at Elma, Washington's Grays Harbor Raceway, on Sunday, the 16th, for a Father's Day fireworks-spectacular special, the Timber Cup. "I think that the Oregon/Washington Speedweek is an awesome trip!" said current NARC standings leader Cole Macedo from Lemoore. "I know I had a lot of fun last year, and I'm super excited to run those tracks because they can get super slick and have some character." With six races down in the 65th anniversary season, there have been super exciting events coming down to the last few laps, and there's no doubt that this trend will continue. The Fastest Five Days in Motorsports started in 2019 as the Fastest Four Days in Motorsports in California. However, that all changed in 2022 when it was redirected to the Pacific Northwest. The 2023 edition was an uninterrupted string of events that led up to the Jim Raper Memorial Super Dirt Cup at Skagit Speedway. Support classes for the first four nights will be the Northwest Focus Midget Series. Saturday night, the Iron Head Sprint Series will join the card. Sunday's bout will feature IMCA Modifieds and PHRA Dwarf Cars. Each night will pay a stout $5000 to win and $600 to start the A-main. Another perk up for grabs is a $5000 point fund for the top eight teams in the Fastest Five Days in Motorsports points, courtesy of Roth Motorsports and Winters Performance. The overall champion will also receive a commemorative collectable trophy at the year-end championship awards banquet. Some extra money will be on the line Thursday night at the Douglas County Dirtrack. Shane DeWald Trucking is offering a $500 bonus for the fast timer, and Topp It Express will kick in another $500 in cash for the evening's hard charger. Championship Chase With five straight nights of action on tap, the King of the West championship title could very well be determined during the Fastest Five Days in Motorsports. Last year, eventual NARC champion Corey Day created a massive buffer over the rest of the competition that helped him lock up the title. Lemoore's Cole Macedo has stayed up in the first position in the championship standings for the entire 2024 campaign. Still, the Tarlton Motorsports #21 car enters the week with a slim two-point advantage. Even though last year was Macedo's first foray into several Pacific Northwest tracks, he managed to win the Willamette leg of the journey. He broke up Day's ability to sweep all four nights. So far, this team has had two NARC wins this season. "With the amount of racing that I've been running this year and seeing all these different tracks, I think I'll be in good shape," Macedo continued. "Drew Warner (crew chief) and the boys have been working hard, and I'm almost fully recovered from my rib injury early in the season, so our team is ready." As the 2024 season continues, Justin Sanders keeps getting faster and faster. The Mittry Motorsports #2X team has been excellent this year. They were outside the top five in points a few weeks ago. Now, they sit a close second after scoring a season-leading three victories. The Aromas pilot accomplished those three wins in the last four rounds, including the most recent event at Placerville. 2017 NARC champion Bud Kaeding goes into the FFDM with some of the most experience at many of the tracks including Southern Oregon, Cottage Grove, and Willamette Speedways. 2024 has treated the Campbell veteran well. The team has had a lot of consistent speed. They are fourth in the title fight and trail Macedo by thirty-one points. They managed to post a pair of top five runs, including a fourth at Antioch in May. Fifth in series points, Dylan Bloomfield, had an impressive run last year in his Northwest debut. The Oakley teenager, racing for the Vertullo Racing #83V, had some solid runs, including a fourth-place finish at Southern Oregon after setting a quick time. His best NARC run of the current season was a third at Antioch. Who To Watch In 2022, Dominic Scelzi emerged as the champion of what was then called the Faster Four Days in Motorsports. Coming off a third-place result at the Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial, the Fresno driver has only one NARC triumph at the five tracks on the five-night swing. That came at Southern Oregon Speedway two years ago. In 2021 and 2022, he won the FFDM and NARC series championships. Justyn Cox will be among the plethora of drivers to watch when he and the Bates-Hamilton Racing #42X entry migrate north. The Roseville racer has spent much of his career racing and winning in the Pacific Northwest. He will be looking to score his second career NARC win during this string of events. Chase Johnson competed in Oregon and Washington last year for Josh Ford Motorsports, but this year, he will be using his own equipment. Not long after the 2023 Northwest swing, the Penngrove pilot returned to his winning ways after an incredibly emotional victory at his home track Petaluma Speedway. He's already notched a pair of Top 5s in 2024 with NARC, including a runner-up result at Chico's Mini Gold Cup. Reigning NARC rookie Nick Parker is ready for another run in the Pacific Northwest. The Vail, Arizona native, now residing in Chico, spent a lot of time adapting to many new facilities. Still, Parker is a quick learner, and once he's run somewhere, it takes little time for him to be really fast there. Billy Aton is no stranger to Oregon and Washington over the years. Making the haul from Benecia, Aton has shown promise in the current campaign and was a few laps away from winning the Salute to LeRoy Van Conett last month in Stockton. In 2023, Jarrett Soares went to Oregon for the first time to run some local winged and non-winged shows. The Gilroy gasser will be looking to capitalize on that knowledge. Tanner Carrick has been a phenomenal addition to the NARC 410 Sprint Series, putting up several top five finishes. This swing will be an extensive learning experience as the venues will be places the Lincoln native has had little to no exposure. Jessie Attard is excited to be back stateside to take on the best drivers on the west coast. The Landilo, New South Welshman, will represent his home nation of Australia. Last year, he had an impressive tenth-place result at Southern Oregon. Other drivers scheduled to make the trip are Ashton Torgerson from Glendale, Arizona, Sacramento's Angelique Bell, and more! Rookie Race The NARC Rookie of the Year race is also a tight-knit battle between some promising young stars. Caeden Steele has been impressive during the current NARC campaign, posting a pair of podium finishes. The only track of the five which he has seen live is Grays Harbor Raceway, where he made one start last July. The Easton teenager enters the FFDM with a four-marker advantage over the current runner-up. From Lemoore, Gauge Garcia has gotten into a good groove in the last few events with the NARC 410 Sprint Series. Bouncing back from a hard crash at Antioch in May, the Keller Motorsport team had a phenomenal run at the Dave Bradway Jr. Memorial on June 1st, leading many laps and posting a second-place finish. Not to be forgotten is Dominic Gorden of Clovis. What's unique about this young man is that even though he's never raced at 410 at any of the upcoming tracks, he did a lot of racing at Elma, Cottage Grove, Roseburg, and Southern Oregon last July and August. There's no doubt some of the successes that he's had at those venues will translate over to the 410 as he enters the week third in the rookie race. Northwest Home Stand Jacksonville, Oregon's Tanner Holmes is excited to defend his home turf. After spending the late winter and early spring chasing the High Limit and World of Outlaws groups, the YouTube sensation returned west to compete with NARC during the last few weeks. Finishing second at Skagit Speedway on June 1st, Holmes managed to win at four tracks on the FFDM schedule in local competition and was third at last year's Timber Cup. Many regard Puyallup, Washington's Trey Starks as the Pacific Northwest man to beat. Second at last year's Timber Cup and the winner of the 2022 edition, Starks is phenomenal in the Northwest and is the two-time defending champion Skagit Speedway 410 champion. In fact, he's already hit pay dirt three times at the 3/10-mile clay oval that will host the Jim Raper Memorial Super Dirt Cup. Canadian Robbie Price is expected to make the entire swing racing for Rob and Lee Leighton. Currently second in Skagit Speedway points, the Cobble Hill, British Columbia driver spent all of 2023 competing full-time with the World of Outlaws racing for Sides Motorsports and has spent lots of time running at places such as Grays Harbor and Cottage Grove. Tyler Thompson is not to be discounted in his native Oregon. Thompson has traveled throughout Oregon, California, and Montana already this year and will look to defend his home track, Cottage Grove Speedway, where he's the three-time defending track champion. The Harrisburg racer has posted wins at Elma and Grove in local competitions while has come close to being triumphant at Rosburg and Willamette.
