One of the drivers that very well could be a dark horse during the 2015 Wild West Modified Shootout is B.J. Wild. The Redmond native really put his name on the radar by winning at Central Washington State Fair Raceway in Yakima, Washington in early April. Wild also has a local victory at his hometrack of Madras Speedway where he is a two-time and defending champion.

“The year hasn't been too bad,” said Wild, “we've had some good finishes but we've also gotten caught up in some wrecks too.”

Wild should really be fun to watch at Willamette Speedway on Friday June 19th and Saturday the 20th. He managed a second place finish earlier in the year in his Trinity Bikes/Timbers Bar & Grill/ThreeSixNine Fab/Stipe Engine Specialties/Tractor Tunes/Merry Maids Housecleaning/Sounds Fast Stereo Store #12 Shaw.

“Our main goal is to make the feature every night,” B.J. would continue to say, “and of course to stay out of trouble and keep the car in one piece.”

The 2015 Wild West Modified Shootout kicks off at Southern Oregon Speedway on Saturday June 13th. The tour will wrap things up at Willamette Speedway on the 19th and 20th to close the speedweek out for the second straight year. Teams from Oregon, Washington, California, North Dakota, Montana, and British Columbia Canada are expected to make the journey.

All races will be broadcasted through Speed Shift TV and you can either purchase each race for $19.95 or buy the whole week for $99.95.
