By Ben Deatherage BANKS, Ore. (June 17) – Jesse Williamson’s drive to a career third Wild West Modified Shootout crown continued with his third feature win of the 2015 tour Wednesday at Sunset Speedway Park. B.J.

Williamson appeared to have checked out and had the race won until going off of turns three and four on lap 16. He got back on the track but relinquished the front spot to defending champ Alex Stanford. Cautions took lapped traffic out of play while Stanford continued to lead and Williamson worked his way through the field.

Peery scores huge Wild West Shootout win at Siskiyou

By Ben Deatherage YREKA, Calif. (June 14) – A quick decision late in the race paid off for Travis Peery. Originally from nearby Fort Jones, the North Dakota transplant won Sunday’s Wild West Modified Shootout feature at Siskiyou Motor Speedway. Peery started outside pole but the $1,000 Xtreme Motor Sports IMCA Modified victory was sealed until he made a split second decision and chose the right lane that took him through lapped traffic with two circuits left. After taking the lead at the drop of the green, Peery set a rapid pace interrupted only by cautions on laps 15 and 18. The second yellow involved Colorado pilot Ryan Gaylord, running second at the time. He spun into the infield and the second spot was inherited by North Dakota chauffeur Troy Heupel. Heupel nearly caught Peery on a couple occasions but each time Peery was able to pull away. Heavy lapped traffic came into play with just a few laps remaining and that’s when Peery picked the right line to work his way through. The win [Read More]
