Elma, Washington- After taking several weeks off the Northwest Wingless Tour is anxious to get back at it. Saturday June 13th will be the third race of the season and final event held at Grays Harbor Raceway. The 3/8-mile speed factory hosted the series back on May 16th which was the last time the tour was in action.
The NWWT has visited Grays Harbor Raceway fourteen times and has seen nine different winners. Kyle Miller has the most wins so far that anyone has managed to achieve, with three, since the series started to visit GHR in 2009.
Reece Goetz is the only other driver to win more than once with his sweep of the Big E Weekend back in 2011. Jeff Bell, Travis Rilat, Shawn Rice, J.J. Hickle, Evan Margeson, Mike Romig, Sean Johnson, and Seth Bergman are five drivers that have visited victory lane once when the tour has come to town. Tim Alberding picked up the big win, after chasing down Mike Romig, to score his first ever NWWT victory.
Not only will the NWWT regulars be on tap but so will the Oregon Double Shot Series. The ODSS have been in action at Madras Speedway twice this year. Wayne Van Raden won the season opener on May 9th while Josh Horner would be victorious a couple of weeks later on the 30th.
Pit Gates open at 4:00 PM while Front Gates open at 5:00 and Racing is scheduled to begin around 7:00. Admission is $13.00 for Adults, $9.00 for Juniors (7-17)/Seniors (62+)/Active Military, Children 6 & Under are FREE, while a Family Pass (consisting of two Adults and up to four Kids (ages 7-15)) is just $34.00. Kids that are 7-15 that accompany an Adult get into the races for only $5.00 and Premium Seating is $18.00 per seat.
