Lebanon, Oregon- Willamette Speedway will be the place to be this weekend as they look to get things started for the 2014 season. This weekend the historic 1/3-mile clay oval will host a test and tune practice on Friday April 11th while the following evening will be the first race of the season. This will be the first taste of any action in the Mid-Valley as last weekends practice was unfortunately rained out.
The practice on Friday will start around 4:00 PM and last until dusk. Car and driver entries are $30.00, Pit Passes $15.00, and fans wanting to watch from the main grandstands get in for FREE. This will be a perfect opportunity for drivers to shake their cars down and dial them in for the Cabin Fever Season Opener the next night.
On Saturday April 12th the first race of the season will feature the X-Factor Race Cars Super Late Models, IMCA Modifieds, Crockers Cars Super Sports, Sportsman, and Street Stocks. The Pit Gates will open at 1:00 PM, the Pit Meeting will take place at 2:30, Front Gates open at 3:30, and racing starts at 6:00. Tickets for this event are Adults $12.00, Seniors/Military/Juniors (13-18) $10.00, Youths (Ages 12-6) $5.00, and Children under the age of 5 are FREE and a family pass will be offered for two Adults and up to four Youths for just $35.00.
We hope everyone can make it out to enjoy some wonderful racing action at the “Stock Car Capital of the Northwest”. For the latest information regarding Willamette Speedway log on to www.trophymotorsports.com.
