Cottage Grove, Oregon- The second leg of the 2018 ISCS Week Of Speed would take the series to Cottage Grove Speedway on Tuesday, August 14th. Twenty-eight Sprint Cars would join the ISCS representing the states of Oregon and Washington.
In the main event Bailey Sucich set the tone early by grabbing the lead on the opening lap. The Granite Falls, Washington teenager remained in the position for quite some time despite several challengers knocking at her doorstep. Jake Helsel made the decisive pass on the eighteenth circuit and held on to collect the win. It is the Monroe, Washington pilot’s second victory with the ISCS group and the second occasion he has won at CGS in 2018.
Bailey Sucich finished a respectable second with Kinzer Cox, of Cottage Grove, in third. The rest of the top five would be made up of fourth finishing Medford teenager Bailey Hibbard and Junction City’s Shane Forte, in fifth.
Qualifying was divided into four groups with Camden Robustelli from Medford, Harrisburg teenager Tyler Thompson, Cottage Grove’s Hedge Carter, and Jake Helsel setting fast times. Heat race wins went to Bailey Sucich, Creswell’s Eric Bowers, A.J. Harbaugh from McKenzie Bridge, and Helsel. Jacksonville native Tanner Holmes won the consolation feature and was the Travis Rutz Hardcharger Award winner.
The Interstate Sprint Car Series Week Of Speed continues on Wednesday, August 15th at Willamette Speedway in Lebanon. It will mark the second time the series has visited the 1/3-mile clay oval.
