What was scheduled to be our 3rd trip to the beautiful 1/4 mile in Cottage Grove, looks like will finally be our first. All weather forecasts call for the green flag to fly this Saturday at the Cottage Grove Speedway. This highly competitive bullring, is the sprint car Mecca for the State of Oregon. Some big names have graced victory lane, over the years, and one WSS driver will add their name to drivers that have this weekend. This season has started off tough as Mother Nature was not on our side. At this point we should have 5 races in the books, but we’ve had 2. Lindsay Barney and Shawn Rice have each a win to their credit in 2019, and we will see if someone can add their name to that list at CGS.
Last Season, would see 4 trips at CGS. Defending Series Champion, Rob Lindsey, would take the Season Opener main event win. Tim Alberding would be victorious on the 2nd trip to CGS. Kyle Miller would be the only multiple time winner at the ¼ mile taking the last 2 wins, including the prestigious Herz Precision Wingless Nationals.
Saturday is also DADS NIGHT, meaning all dads will be free general admission thanks to the Cottage grove speedway. Great deal to come on out!!!
