BACK TO THE TRACK
VICTORIA, BC (May 7) – When Darrell Midgley takes the green flag this Saturday at South Sound Speedway, almost 8 ½ months will have passed since his last competitive race. The Victoria, British Columbia driver finished 13th in the Canada 200 event at Saratoga Speedway back on August 31st, 2024. Midgley led 24-laps until mechanical woes forced him to park the Northern Provincial Pipelines #81 Dodge. Just a few weeks after the Canada 200 Midgley indicated that the annual trip to Arizona’s Tucson Speedway (Turkey Shoot & Chilly Willy races) was not going to take place. The focus over the winter months would be on tearing down Team NPP"s primary Super Late Model to the bare chassis and rebuilding. The rebuild was successful.
“Hopefully we are on the right track with the rebuild,” exclaims Midgley who tested at South Sound Speedway on March 24th, “we had a good test session. It’s a clean slate and I’m pretty happy to be able to do this.” Midgley says the Super Late Model race at the Rochester, Washington facility is a good test on what basically is a brand new race car. “I’m excited about this Saturday. It’s a soft opening for sure for us. It’s a 100-lap race. Going to make the most of it.” Midgley competed at South Sound Speedway back on August 3rd of last year and finished 7th. This was his 4th top-10 finish in 6-starts at South Sound Speedway dating back to 2015. His best finish during this stretch of appearances was 5th back on July 3, 2019. Pit gates open for competitors this Saturday, May 10th at 2:30pm. Spectator gates open at 4:00pm. Cars on track just after 5:00pm.
