LAKEPORT, Calif. – After a long, wet winter, and a change in management, Northern California Racing Association is ready to begin the 2019 auto racing season this Saturday, starting at 6 p.m. at the Lakeport Speedway.

Saturday's activities will begin with race cars joining in the Memorial Day parade at 11 a.m.

Then the modifieds, bombers, jammers and legends cars will return to the track to get ready for the action on the one-quarter mile paved oval at the Lake County Fairgrounds, located at 401 Martin St.

The evening will conclude with the ever-popular “Fiberglass 500” boat races, in which boats are dragged around the wet race track, trying to dislodge their competitor's boat.

The winners will be chosen by the race fans after the checkered flag is thrown.

Ticket prices are $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 6 to 11, with children age 5 and younger welcome to attend for free.

NCRA began running auto races at the Lakeport Speedway in 1966.
