Some of the fastest races of the racing season are returning to Saratoga Speedway this weekend.
The Northwest Sprint Tour Winged Sprint Cars will be in action on Friday, July 11 and Saturday, July 12 for the Quinsam Communications Sprint Car Classic.
Langford’s Jeff Montgomery leads the point standings and has the most recent win on tour after winning at Penticton Speedway in June and said it was a big deal to get the win out of the way.
“We finished second in the first two races of the year in Washington and Idaho, so we really wanted to get a win under our belt.”
The Winged Sprint Cars are the fastest short track racing cars, going over 800 horsepower and reaching speeds around 200 kilometres-per-hour.
Langley based racer and track record holder Aaron Willison will also be on the race roster, who’s searching for his first win of the season after multiple incidents ruined his chance at potential wins earlier this year.
Gates open both nights at 4:00 p.m. with qualifying beginning at 4:45 p.m. and the opening ceremonies take place at 6:00 p.m.
