Coos Bay, Oregon- When the Northwest Wingless Tour pay a visit to Coos Bay Speedway on Saturday July 18th Tim Alberding enters atop the point chart for the Northwest Wingless Tour. Alberding, from Salem, has had an amazing 2015 season by picking up his first career series win at Grays Harbor Raceway in Elma, Washington on May 16th. He would back up that victory on June 20th at Sunset Speedway Park.
“Honestly I feel like I've been pretty lucky this year,” said Alberding, “we really didn't change anything from last year. We've had some good starting positions and have been able to cut through traffic.”
Tim is a former Oregon Double Shot Series champion with and without the wing. In 2010 he was crowned the Cottage Grove Speedway Non-Wing champion. He still drives the family owned Alberding Racing #52 Maxim and is experiencing his first multi-feature win season.
“I'd love another win because we've never won there (Coos Bay),” continued Alberding, “but I don't want to screw anything up. I want to keep everything in one piece and roll it in the trailer to finish out the year.”
Pit Gates open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates 4:00, and Racing is scheduled to begin around 6:30. For more information log on to www.coosbayspeedway.us.
