First night of racing at Wenatchee Valley Super Oval brought out ten cars. Competition was on the track and great night of racing. Our Vintage cars gave the fans a fun race and just the beginning of fantastic 2019 season in the making.  If you weren’t able to attend the race, just CLICK HERE for a posted YouTube video of the Main Event. Enjoy.

Our 2019 rookie, Steve Woods, came across the checkered flag finish-line in 1st place.  As luck would have it, being on his side, he also took 1st place in the A-Heat/Trophy race. Congratulations to Steve Woods and the 22-team.

We would like to acknowledge and thank the 22-car sponsors. Thank you, First Day Electric, Gig Harbor Copy & Mail and Travel by Cathy.  A special thank you to  Rick Villyard, John Woods and Becca Woods for all of your support.

Kyten Jones in the 30-car took home the 2nd place trophy for the Main Event and as if that wasn’t exciting enough, Kyten set the fastest time for the evening.  Kyten has been part of Vintage Modified’s racing family for years, growing-up in a family of racing he carries on tradition. Keep an eye on this young man, he’s off to a great start. Congratulations Kyten!

Last year our first race of the season was April 14th 2018 at Evergreen Speedway in Monroe. Evergreen doesn’t call the race a ‘rain-out’ until the very last minute of pour down rain.  Enjoy these pictures from last years first race.

What a wet day. Evergreen Speedway was not going to call a ‘Rain-Out’ for Vintage Modified Racing Association, so several teams showed-up and sported the rainy-day. The drivers never did get their cars onto the track, and only one car actually backed off their trailer. However, in spite of the rain everyone had a fun day. For the teams that could not make it to the track, we don’t race by the mail carriers motto… NOT WIND – NOR RAIN – NOR SLEET – NOR HAIL… many teams travel a great distance to race in this traveling club, we know if you could have been there today, you would have been there today.

It was a tie for the peer vote for Most Inspirational for 2018, Ken ‘Mountain Man’ Jackson and Micki Rux.  These two people provide a lot of support to the club and the teams. Ken is the ‘go-to-man’ for tires, parts and service and Micki is the ‘go-to-women’ for great meals, running to the tower for line-up sheets, point sheets and making sure everyone is where they need to be when they need to be there.

Thank you Ken and Micki for your unfailing service to VMRA. You both give so much of your time and dedication to make sure the teams are well cared for.  You are both appreciated for everything. Thank you.
