With excellent weather around us,  this night was so sweet and brought us some of our best racing yet for the 2003 Season and we were finished by 11:30!!!! Track was awesome Jason, Clayton and Doug. Thanks for all your hard work.

We had some double winners, with Kody Mea taking the Aqua Sportsman Champ, and the Junior 2 victories, and Chris Smiltnieks talking the Stock Heavy and Medium victories.

It was a dad and son victory as Roger Wilson took the Over 35 win, and son Jacob taking his first victory in Stock Light.

And what about Cody Burks??? 8 in a row for the 38JR!!!!

I cant say enough of how proud we are of all the racers, young and old,  who support us week to week. We had some new faces out there and some old friends returning once again. I invite everyone  back to race with us again and we thank each and every one who came out for this race. 

We are very proud of our track, very proud of our track officials, and track workers, and we work on that pride to bring you the very best racing week to week that we can. We shall do no less, and we will not back down for any reason our commitment to give our young racers a place to learn true sportsmanship, and competitiveness, in a very demanding atmosphere. I Have said many times in the last 13 years, it CAN be done, and Atoka Raceway Park, we are doing it!!!!

Top to bottom there was good racing in all classes. We want to thank all who came out to watch and participate in yet another event at ARP.

Junior 1 (10)

What can I say about this young driver that I have not already said?  I am very humbled by being able to witness the growth of this young boy. With a constant smile that never goes away, he continues to hit his mark lap after lap, and this week he makes it 8 in a row in a very tough and demanding Junior 1 class. I've seen him in victory and defeat, but I've always seen the same dignified young racer. Congrats go out to Cody Burks and his crew for this well earned victory!!!

Stock Light (11)

Like I said above, the bear gets you at times and it did for the #31 kart driven by Justin Webb. He took the checker but a worn part disqualified him in tech and the victory went to a very hard charging second place finisher Jacob Wilson. This was Jacob's first win at ARP and we congratulate Jacob and his proud family and crew for this win.
