Lebanon, Oregon- Willamette Speedway opened their 2019 race season on Saturday, April 27th. A great crowd was accompanied by an awesome night of racing. Five classes were in action including Super Late Models, IMCA Modifieds, Super Sports, Sportsman, and Street Stocks.

Portland’s Joey Tanner backed up his title by leading every single lap of the Super Late Model main event as well as earning a complete sweep of the program. Mulino chauffeur Justin Duty placed second over third finishing Thomas Hunziker, of Bend. 2018 IMCA Modified champ Grey Ferrando, from Stayton, parked it in the winner’s circle.

James Slover, out of Lebanon, put his mount in victory lane in the Super Sports while Crawfordsville pilot Tom Yeack got the job done in the Sportsman ranks and pulling off a clean sweep. Finally, Lebanon’s Justin Evans dominated the Street Stocks by winning every time when he hit the track to earn himself a sweep.
