It was a night to honor our nation’s finest. Anderson Logging Co sponsored Armed Forces Night at Ukiah Speedway. It was through their donation that all Military and First Responders were treated to a free night of racing and all fans came to support them for $5 grandstand entry fee. Insignia flags were placed around the track, the stands were decorated with flags and streamers and the racing action was exciting and intense. Special guest announcer Justin Briggs kept fans on the edge of their seats with his enthusiastic announcing style. Fans watched races with Jammers, Taco Bell Bombers, T&T Towing Jalopies, Pro 4 Modifieds and the Pacific Challenge Series Late Models.

In the Jammer Division, number 2 driver David Rogers had a strong showing taking the win in both the Heat and Main events. Rogers had best lap time in lap 27 of the Main with 15.643.

There was some exciting moments in the Taco Bell Bombers race with David Land III in the number 3 edging out the 9 of Matt Page for the win in the B Bomber Heat Race and points leader #88 Bob Mook battling for top spot with the 62JR of Roy Ingalls Jr for the win in the A Bomber Heat Race. With a full contingent of Taco Bell Bombers taking the track for the main, the paint was shared, a few new dents were acquired and the 2T of Raymond Taylor Sr took the main event win.

The Pro 4 Modifieds took the track with a roar and the fans were treated to intense battles for first place. The 15 driver, Scott Brown, won the heat race with a best time of 14.332. However the best time of the race was in lap 6 when Jimmy Badeker got a 14.115. Badeker held onto the momentum in his number 28 winning the main event and best lap time with 14.002.

NEW MODIFIED TOUR COMES TO NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

A new series for modifieds is slated for the 2014 season and will be headlined at the Northern California asphalt tracks. The North State Challenge Series Modified Tour, designed for IMCA type modifieds, will include races at Shasta Speedway, Ukiah Speedway and Lakeport Speedway with possible events at Redwood Acres Raceway in Eureka and All American Speedway in Roseville.

The 2014 schedule will be released next month. It will work in conjunction with Lucas Oil and have a similar format, but will not conflict with any of the Lucas Oil modified shows. Plans are to have one “big” show per month The series will be announcing its head-liner sponsor soon. . Along with Lucas Oil, the modified series will also be supported by several associate sponsors as well as contingency sponsors.

Organizer of the series, Jeff Stephens of Sacramento, is a long-time racer and car owner of the Firehouse Racing Team. He has joined forces with 2003 Auto Racing Promoters of the Year Bob and Nadine Strauss and race promoter Blair Aiken to promote the modified tour. The Strauss’ were the promoters at the Lakeport Speedway for 23 years. They brought the first asphalt modified to California in 1990 where Bob raced in this class for 20 years. He along with Aiken will be inspecting the cars at each race, making sure each car meets the rules. Aiken is the past promoter of Ukiah Speedway. He operated this race track for 11 years before taking on the track manager job at Shasta Speedway for the 2013-2014 racing seasons.

Rules for the modifieds will follow the guidelines used at most of the Northern California race tracks.. The rules package should be available next month. For further information about the new North State Challenge Series Modified Tour, contact Jeff Stephens at 916-838-7513.
