The Oregon Motorcycle Road Racing Association (OMRRA) brought the heat last weekend with their fourth round of competition for 2022. In addition to 100-degree temperatures, Portland International Raceway saw the largest number of motorcycle road racers since before the start of the pandemic with the lure of OMRRA’s 50th Anniversary Celebration that included a joint round with WMRRA (Washington Motorcycle Road Racing Association), chicane track layout, catered BBQ, pit bike race, raffle, and cash holeshot awards in 20 different races. Racers, friends, family, volunteers, and spectators came for the speed but stayed for the fun that was had all weekend long.
Founded in 1972, OMRRA is celebrating their 50th anniversary during all of 2022 but the July race round included many special events. Among the special events were a raffle and Kelly Johnson Memorial Pit Bike Race, which combined raised nearly $2,000 for OMRRA’s Safety Fund and Injured Riders Fund. Few racing organizations can say that the founder has raced every single year of the organization’s existence, but OMRRA can, with founder Eugene Brown sitting fifth in the Title Championship aboard his Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP.
In the Money Well Lending Title Championship hunt, Kevin Pinkstaff extended his dominating lead by winning every single race he entered. In addition to taking the top podium step four times, Kevin’s Pirelli-shod Zlock Racing Kawasaki ZX-10R earned him three $50 cash holeshot awards. With Kevin and team in winning form, a 174 point lead, and only two rounds of competition left, that #1 plate has never been more in reach.
The Zlock Racing team continued their domination when Oliver Jervis smashed the Middleweight Superbike lap record aboard the Zlock-custom 500cc Kawasaki “ZX-5R”, on Pirelli tires, setting a time of 1:21.106 on the PIR Chicane track configuration. Oliver also left Portland with a $50 cash holeshot award to accompany his two first-place trophies.
OMRRA’s Clubman Championship, sponsored by MotoCorsa, pits “the rest of the club” against each other in the hunt for the #1c plate. Alex Taylor added to his points lead in the Clubman Championship with four wins over the weekend aboard his 450cc “triple” Yamaha R6 on Bridgestone tires. Meanwhile, Nathan Aldrich continues accumulating points with strong finishes in all of his races aboard his Aprilia RS 660. Jon Campbell remains the class of the field in Middleweight Supersport, with double wins over the weekend. The Ultra-lightweight classes were shaken up by the arrival of Paxton Gray and Austin McCabe aboard their matching Gray Area Racing 2022 KTM RC 390s. Chase Farthing and Dave Pearce remain strong competitors at the top the Ultra-lightweight classes, but will have to work hard to defend their championship leads against the arrival of the dominating 2022 KTM RC 390. Ben Montgomery extended his points leads in 250 Ninja Cup and GP classes, and sits in a comfortable fifth place in the Clubman Championship.
The 600 Supersport and 600 Superbike races provided entertaining battles between David Kohlstaedt and Deion Campbell as the pair attacked PIR’s chicane with vigor. Yamaha R6, Pirelli-mounted Campbell made the trip from California to take three wins against Washington Kawasaki ZX-6R Michelin racer Kohlstaedt’s one win. While David and Deion may have taken some points in July, Nate Abell and Josh McKay remain at the top of the championships aboard their respective Kawasaki and Yamaha.
The Langlitz Leathers Vintage Championship saw the return of Collin Spittal aboard his Honda RS125. Collin’s winning ways put him just one point behind championship leader Theis Corneliussen and his Yamaha RZ350.
OMRRA’s next event takes place at Ridge Motorsports Park, in Shelton, Washington, August 20-21, 2022. Hosted by WMRRA, the August race round will be the final of four combined OMRRA/WMRRA race rounds in 2022.
OMRRA, incorporated in 1972 as a non-profit, volunteer run organization, has members ranging in age from 12 to over 70, racing motorcycles of many brands, sizes and ages. OMRRA operates at Portland International Raceway, a city park and world class track.
