CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association Racer Spotlight

Lambert Ridings, 51st Birthday Boy today, is this week's racer spotlight. Lambert lives in Columbus, NC & has only been racing a short 4 years but hoping for more years here very soon. His car is a 1985 Chevy Camaro, known as Li'l Aggravation & is powered by a SBC 350 CI built by CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association racer, Mr. Billy Plage. Everyone should be very familiar with this car as his wife, Stacie, has been the driver in the past but she now has a new car. Lambert used to race in the North Division during the old IHRA days & he won several rounds but took a hiatus to be the crew chief for his wife so he doesn't have any wins yet but I'll sure he'll be able to add a few to his resume as soon as he gets back comfortable in the seat. Lambert will tell you that his most epic fail is telling Stacie to drive her car like a man & it then breaking but Stacie has a different story for his most epic fail 😉! Stacie says it is getting beat by a pregnant lady in a station wagon (Emily Stott) & she was even tapping the brakes on him at the finish line. It sounds like Lambert wants to forget about that run 😀! He gives Special Thanks for his wife Stacie & daughter Julia whom is his 2 biggest supporters!!! Lambert & Stacie doesn't attend all of the CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association races due to distance (& of course fuel cost nowadays) but when they do, they are always very friendly riding around on their golf cart & stopping to talk to fellow racers & I'm sure always willing to help if needed. They even load a fellow racer their new car at the last race of the 2021 season as he was battling for the points championship.

Be sure to stop by Lambert's pit at the next race & tell him hello!
We hope to see both Lambert & Stacie behind the wheel of both cars at our next race in July at Farmington Dragway. More details on that race coming very soon.
