Hoker Trucking Victory Lane Returns to the Wild West Shootout

Mega Miniseries Set for Jan. 4, 5, 8, 10, 11 & 12 at FK Rod Ends Vado Speedway Park

VADO, N.M. (August 22, 2024) — The ultimate destination for any racer at the 19th annual Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts will once again be tabbed as the ‘Hoker Trucking Victory Lane.’

The elevated concrete pad will be ground zero for celebrations and big check celebrations on Jan. 4 – 12 at FK Rod Ends Vado (N.M.) Speedway Park.

“Another year for the Wild West Shootout and more amazing support from Jeff and Penny Hoker with Hoker Trucking. They’ve been on board with us for a long time, and they are some of the biggest race fans and supporters you’ll ever meet. They truly put their money where their mouth is when it comes to helping racing succeed. From sponsoring events like the Wild West Shootout to race teams to series to even promoting their own events these days, the Hoker Trucking name is everywhere, and we can’t thank them enough for one being of our longest tenured sponsors,” shares Wild West Shootout Event Director, Ben Shelton.

“Perhaps my favorite part of having the Hoker family at the event is that there’s never a dull moment when they are around you. Again, just great people who are great friends.”

Hoker Trucking LLC is a small family-owned business that has been in operation since 2000. The company is owned by Jeff and Penny Hoker and their son Michael Hoker manages the office. The company is based out of Dixon, Iowa and operates a fleet that consists of dry van freight, refrigerated freight, both steel and aluminum dumps, flat bed and hopper. On-time and safety records are remarkable and illustrate why Hoker Trucking is regarded as one of the finest in the business. Hoker Trucking, LLC can give you a competitive advantage. Ensure that your freight is there on time, every time.
