Madras, Oregon- For the third time in 2016 the Wingless Sprint Series will head over to central Oregon’s Madras Speedway. The ¼-mile clay oval will be hosting the Open Wheel Spectacular and should be another riveting affair to the current campaign. With Cottage Grove Speedway having no racing during the weekend it may attract some regulars from the southern Willamette Valley.
Rob Lindsey has been very dominant this year and leads the point standings as well as the win column. Lindsey has three main event victories including the last WSS race at Willamette Speedway a few weeks ago. Kyle Miller, Gary Lynch, Lance Hallmark, Cooper Desbiens, and Wayne Van Raden all have won once. Rob Lindsey won the season opener at Madras earlier this year while the driver getting the job done at the Make-A-Wish Race in July.
Pit Gates open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates 4:30, and Racing around 6:30. Adults are $10.00, Seniors/Military $6.00, Children (6-11) $5.00, and Kids 5 or younger are FREE.
