On July 5th 2014, Chris earned his 1st Wally at a National Open at Champion Raceway in Medford, Oregon running a borrowed Lexus from Michelle Hobson in Sportsman bracket!
Chris and Barry went down to Medford to support Kirk Hobson, manager of Champion, and entered Michelle’s Lexus and the rest is history as they say.
Congratulations son, the first Wally for the Young family in all these many years of racing!
About Roger
Driver of our '57 Chev from 1972-2019, Vietnam veteran (A Troop, 3/17th Air Cavalry Scout helicopter Line Chief and later Cobra Periodic Inspection team leader), retired ASE rated automotive mechanic. Roger became involved in drag racing during his high school days and after his stint in the Army ran E & F/MP [Modified Production] here in Division 6 before switching to bracket racing when the '57 became obsolete for class racing. He often raced at Puyallup, Kent-Pacific Raceways, Bremerton, Portland & the original Mission, B.C. track.
That is truly awesome! I am so looking forward to the Nostalgia race as we have some good mojo going after the great tnt for both you and Torri, now this. 🙂
I could use some of that mojo!! 🙂
