Lebanon, Oregon- After the Saturday, May 25th, finale for the 2019 Clair Cup fell to weather things were moved to Sunday, the 26th. The same six classes from Friday evening at Willamette Speedway were on hand to duke it out for the weekend finale. Four of the six divisions witnessed sweepers of both shows.

Portland’s Joey Tanner has kept his juggernaut-like momentum this year in Super Late Models for his fifth victory in as many races. Albany ace Bricen James once again got the job done in the IMCA Modified ranks and now has three wins to his credit while Salem driver B.J. Donofrio has two straight triumphs in the Super Sports.

The Sportsman division had its newest winner grace victory lane with Kent Emery and a new 2019 victor in the Street Stocks emerged as Cottage Grove’s Kelly McDonald parked the Tom and Joan Langan owned entry in the winner’s circle. Lastly, Sandy native Eddie Farness scored another W in Hornet racing for his third consecutive win.

Willamette Speedway hosts the popular Strawberry Cup weekend with three events on the card. Friday, May 31st, kicks things off with Super Late Models, IMCA Modifieds, IMCA Sport Mods, Sportsman, and Hornets. Saturday, June 1st, will have the return of the Late Models, Mods, and Sport Mods while running just on Saturday will be Super Sports and Street Stocks.
