Cottage Grove, Oregon- Cottage Grove Speedway will host their first ever 4-Cylinder Nationals which is expected to bring some of the area’s best Hornet drivers to the historic ¼-mile clay oval. It will also be a Pepsi Family Night which means we will offer our normal family pass for two Adults and up to four Youths for just $35.00 but being that it is Pepsi Family Night complimentary small soft drink beverages will be included with the admission.
Classes in action that evening include the Hornets, Northwest Extreme Sprints, IMCA Modifieds, and Street Stocks. Pit Gates will open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates open at 4:00, and Racing starts at 6:45. Tickets are Adults $12.00, Seniors/Military/Juniors (13-17) $10.00, Youths (Ages 12-6) $5.00, and Children under the age of 5 are FREE.
In two completed Hornet events there have been two different winners this year. Taunton Swaim won the Season Opener on April 12th while K.C. Scott was victorious in the non-point race on May 3rd. Dave Hibbard earned the win in the only Northwest Extreme Sprint feature of 2014 while Braedon Hand and Mark Wauge each have a victory in IMCA Modfieid action. Justin Evans won the only Street Stock race of the season back on April 12th.
