Full Night Of Racing Scheduled For Saturday Night
After a lengthy delay due in part to area wildfires, the 2024 season at Redwood Acres Raceway is set to resume this Saturday August 10. O’Reilly Auto Parts will be presenting a night of wall-to-wall action with late models, Upstate Modifieds, Upstate Bombers, the Nor Cal Legend Series, mini stocks and vintage modifieds all taking to the 3/8-mile paved oval.
The last race at the Acres took place on Saturday June 22 during the annual Redwood Acres Fair. The July 27 race featuring the Spears SRL Southwest Tour Series, Spears Modified Series and Nor Cal Legend Series was postponed to Saturday August 31 due to CALFIRE’s use of the fairgrounds.
Late model victors thus far during the 2024 season include Luke Hall on June 8 and David Henderson on June 21.
The Upstate Modified Series and Upstate Bomber Series both visited RAR earlier this year on June 8. Sierra Furia took the modified victory while Jeremy Doss was the bomber winner.
Furia currently leads the Upstate Modified points by eight points over Trystan Mucci. Sammy Nuno, Sal Martinez and Eric Price, Jr. round out the top five.
Local racer Jordan Krupa is the points leader for the Upstate Bombers coming off a July 6 win at Ukiah Speedway. He has an 11-point advantage over Terry Pittman. They are followed by Bob Mook, Eureka’s Kadence Toland and youngster T.J. Sorrels.
Brandon White has been the dominator in the Nor Cal Legend Series having won three of the series’ first four races this season including the past three in a row. In addition, he has won two of the three feature races at RAR in 2024. White holds a solid 49-point lead over Kylie Daniels. Kai Lovell is third in standings followed by Trey Daniels and J.K. Kinney.
Mini stock winners in 2024 have been Derek Duke and Jarrett Mayo.
