Another close call with the weather as Raceway
honors Moms
Once again,
racers and fans were given a brief reprieve from the rain until the
last checkered flag was unfurled at Orland Raceway on Saturday, April
7th. Promoter Paul Turner spent two days pumping water out of the
turns and one full day grading so the track would be race-ready for
the five division field of competitors. Since the event was completed,
another 2-1/2 inches of rain have falling in Orland, resulting in a
track which looks more like a fish pond.
In the
Sprint car feature, Superman Tony Richards had another clean sweep,
taking the heat, dash and main event wins home to further his points
lead. Adam Schroer battled to take over the lead but was unable to
pass Richards. Willows' Doug Emery finished in third, followed by
Dudley Burrows and Don Emery to round out the top five.
Racing is scheduled to resume on
Saturday, May 14th, featuring all five regular divisions.
The Friday, May 20th Fair Race has been reorganized and will feature
Sprints, Pure Stocks and Mini Stocks. This special event will begin at
7:00. For grandstand pricing, contact the Glenn County Fair office at
