Crockett smokes NWWT sprints
If you’re Roger Crockett, winning never gets old. It’s even better when you’re out of your element. Running without the wings for just the second time in his career, Crockett took the checkers in the NorthWest Wingless Tour 360 sprint car Summer Shootout event at Cottage Grove Speedway on Saturday night.
Ironically, Crockett also won his first time out in a non-wing car. However, that September show at Willamette Speedway was a on a very dry slick track where he needed to just carefully idle around the bottom of the track. Saturday at Cottage Grove, he was kept busy by a tacky, fast and challenging track.
The next currently scheduled event in the inaugural season for the NorthWest Wingless Tour is Saturday, July 18th at Cottage Grove Speedway. More information on the NorthWest Wingless Tour can be found online at http://www.nwwinglesstour.com
