Elma, Washington- The third and final race of the Walker Racing Development/Modern Machinery Wingless Sprint Shootout is this Saturday, August 4th. The race will be sanctioned by the Wingless Sprint Series and marks the ninth race of the 2018 season.
So far, it’s a three-way tie for most wins with the tour. Kyle Miller, Rob Lindsey, and Tim Alberding all have two victories to their credit. Pat Canfield and Lindsay Barney each have bested the series once.
Some additional contingencies will be up for grabs during the night.

Rob Lindsey has three wins at the 3/8-mile clay oval, including May 26th of this year, while Pat Canfield is the only other winner at the facility.
Pit Gates open at 10:00 AM (and cleared at 3:30 PM), Pit Meeting at 5:00, and Racing starts around 7:00. For the latest news and information log on to wingless.nwextremeseries.com .
