Lindsay Barney Looks To Gain Some Experience At NWWT Coos Bay Event By Ben Deatherage
Coos Bay, Oregon- On Saturday July 18th the Northwest Wingless Tour will invade Coos Bay Speedway. One of the drivers that will be in the field is teenager Lindsay Barney from Eagle Creek. The rising junior at Estacada High School will make her second career Sprint Car start after racing with the Oregon Double Shot Series last weekend at Madras Speedway. Barney will pilot the Herz Precision Parts/Wolverine Chassis/Roy Montgomery Trucking/Voitech Motors/J.A.B. Motorsports #1 Eagle for car owner Tony Thomas.
“It was a pretty good experience,” commented Barney, “I just tagged the back but made a couple of passes and finished eighth.”
Lindsay Barney is no stranger when it comes to success in racing. She is a two-time National ¼ Midget Champion and has won several regional and track titles over the years. She is also the two-time and defending Salem Indoor Speedway Micro Sprint champion. Some of her goals this weekend at Coos Bay?
“I just want to go out there and turn some laps,” Lindsay would continue to say, “if I can make some passes that would be great but we are out there for seat time.”
Pit Gates open at 2:00 PM, Front Gates 4:00, and Racing is scheduled to begin around 6:30. For more information log on to www.coosbayspeedway.us.
