Banks, Oregon- Yamhill's Terry Houck has his sights set on the $300.00 to win at the Iron Man 100 that Sunset Speedway Park will host on Saturday June 6th. Houck enters the weekend fourth in the championship standing in his Luttrell's Trucking/Trask Mountain Outpost/Sweere's Trucking/Lady Hawks Roller Derby Team/McMinnville Tire Factory #58 Camaro. He has posted two top five with a season best second on May 9th.
“It's been a pretty good season,” commented Houck, “I had a few problems at the beginning of the year but I've worked all the bugs out.”
Terry had an impressive run last weekend by running up front for most of the race. Unfortunately he would get caught up in a late race spin on the final lap and resulted in a sixth place finish.
“We almost had a clean sweep last weekend,” he would continue, “I'm definitely looking forward to this weekend and take home that big payday.”
