Banks, Oregon- It will be a booming Thursday night program on August 15th at Sunset Speedway Park. The ¼-mile clay oval hosts the fourth round of the 2019 “Week of Speed” for both the Interstate Sprint Car Series and Dwarf Cars. Then the track shifts gears during the weekend as Saturday and Sunday is the annual Banks Tractor Pull & Barbeque. For a times guide, be sure and check out http://bankssunsetpark.com/bbq/.

The ISCS Sprint Series has paid just one visit to SSP. That was last year during speedweek, and it was Shane Forte the winner. The Dwarf Cars, on the other hand, have spent a bunch of time at the “Banks Bullring.” Jake Van Ortwick and Ryan Martinez are tied for the most wins at Banks, with two each. Jimmy Brinster is the lone single-race victor at Sunset.
