\"\"<\/a>25 June 2017 Kent, WA –\u00a0Hosting a NHRA Northwest Division 6 event brings the best of the best to grab that \u201cWally\u201d trophy when all is said and done. Pacific Raceways has two of these events this season, something I don\u2019t think they have done before. Yes, they did have a \u201ctwo\u201d event weekend under a previous division director but not two separate dates.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>There had to be a little question in the minds of those that put this date on the schedule, see as a lot will say in the northwest say \u201csummer\u201d begins on the 5th of July. Not the case this four-day race weekend. Mother nature threw down nothing but sunshine though increasing the temp every day with race day Sunday jumping into the 90\u2019s, not normal for the end of June and just a few days into summer.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The gamble you play with Mother Nature paid off this day of \u201cfinals\u201d as it reads like a \u201cwho\u2019s who\u201d in division six racing.<\/p>\n

Starting with Jeff Lane, a many time division champion picking up another \u201cWally\u201d in Competition Eliminator. Who else but Jody Lang in Super Stock, another many time \u201cWally\u201d winner. Method Racing is a name you will see many times in Stock Eliminator, either Cal or Mary Ann powering their \u201cNova\u201d to another \u201cWally\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Top Sportsman saw a very first-time winner of the coveted \u201cWally\u201d when James Rutherford came all the way from Wembley, Alberta Canada, (a 15hr. drive) and hoisted his trophy. Another name you will see is Paul Nero taking care of business in Top Dragster to grab the \u201cWally\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In what has to be the best-looking pit area the Dalrymple\u2019s came in force with \u201cfive\u201d race machines for at least three separate classes. Hoisting the \u201cWally\u201d this time out of the group, Michael got it done in Super Comp. Taking the \u201963 Corvette to the winner\u2019s circle and another name that grace\u2019s the D-6 books, Chris Cannon put his hand around the \u201cWally\u201d in Super Gas.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Many of his friends call him \u201cBags\u201d but his name is Steve Beggerly, past track champ in the E.T. series at Pacific Raceways and has lifted a \u201cWally\u201d in the past did it again in Super Street. Coming up from Gladstone, OR, Don DePeel powered his \u201974 Kawasaki for a \u201cWally\u201d in Sportsman Motorcycle.<\/p>\n

No stranger to the \u201cWally\u201d himself, Dale Green put his DG Machine \u201908 American dragster in the winner\u2019s circle. Another local racer, Al Chinn and his \u201964 Nova Wagon running in a \u201cnot\u201d normal class for him put it in the winner\u2019s circle holding up the \u201cWally\u201d.<\/p>\n

Congrats to all the winners who endured the heat for a fine four days of racing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The event album now sports a total of five albums, covering all four days of racing, testing, and qualifying. Some great shots of action on the finish line are included, and are really cool, in spite of the heat this weekend. To go to the event albums \u2013 click here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Also a young lady very near and dear to myself and my daughter up from Boise spending time with her squeeze Jason while he worked the race spending a little time with a strange camera (she shoots Cannon I shoot Nikon) working on her own photography skills. Thank You young lady, till next time.<\/p>\n
