Banks, Oregon- Sunset Speedway Park is set for the return of the ultracompetitive IMCA Wild West Modified Shootout. The “Banks Bullring” has the honor of having a race completed every year with zero cancelations. That record is looking to stay intact as the series returns on Wednesday, June 26th.
There have been nine total races ran at SSP since 2011 producing six different winners. Jesse Williamson has won the majority of the races, with four trips to victory lane, while Brian Poppa, Ken Schrader, Mark Carrell, Travis Peery, and Kellen Chadwick have all gotten the job done one time each. Peery and Carrell earned their first career series wins at this venue in 2014 so it can be a place where one can emerge victorious for the first time.
Locally this season Greg Walters has been in prime form. The Late Model standout has accumulated three wins in six starts. Jeremy Martin, Doug Lockwood, and Jerry Schram all have one win to their credit in 2019.
Ticket prices with $13.00 for Adults and Seniors/Military/Juniors (13-17) $10.00. A Family Pass (Two Adults and up to four Youths) is offered for $35.00 while Premium Seats are available for $25.00 each. Pit Gates open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates 4:00, with Racing kicking off at 6:00.
