Pacific Raceways
It was “Pinks All Out” day at Pacfic Raceways in Kent on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 15-16. We made it for Saturday’s action, which drew more than 15,000 spectators on a perfect summer day. In addition to the “Pinks” competition, the day included races between trucks and exhibitions including Seattle’s motorcycle team, the “Cossacks.” Also on hand was legendary Pacific Northwest drag racer Jerry “The King” Ruth, pictured here talking to a fan.
