Banks, Oregon- Although Non-Winged Sprint Car racing has a rich history at Sunset Speedway Park it has never hosted an event for the newly created Wingless Sprint Series. However, that will change on Saturday, July 23rd as the WSS will invade the “Banks Bullring”. A very good count is predicted to be on hand with teams traveling from all over the states of Oregon and Washington.

2016 marks the first time since 2008 that there has been one sole Non-Wing sanctioning body in the Pacific Northwest. From 2009-2015 the Northwest Wingless Tour and the Oregon Double Shot Series would run two separate schedules although some dates were co-sanctioned. The two groups would unify during the 2015-16 offseason and so far every single edition has been a nail bitter.

With six events completed there have been five different winners. Rob Lindsey has the most, with two, while Cooper Desbiens, Kyle Miller, Gary Lynch, and Lance Hallmark all have one. Lindsey enters the weekend with the current points lead.

Pit Gates on Saturday will open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates open at 4:00, and racing starts at 6:30. Tickets for this event are Adults $13.00, 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.
