LAKEPORT, Calif. – Northern California Racing Association will hold its second race of the 2019 season this Saturday night at the Lakeport Speedway.

In addition to the NCRA modifieds, bombers, bandoleros and legends cars, the NCI-Pro-4 Modifieds will make their first appearance as will the popular Pro Drifters.

Drifting is a driving technique where the driver intentionally oversteers, with loss of traction in the rear wheels or all tires, while maintaining control and driving the car through the entirety of a corner.

The technique causes the rear slip angle to exceed the front slip angle to such an extent that often the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction to the turn.

Lakeport Speedway is a difficult track for the Pro Drifters as it is a narrow continuous circle with a crash wall all around the track.

Spectators will enjoy watching the cars run inches away from the walls.

Gates open at 5 p.m. with racing at 6 p.m.

Admission prices have been reduced in 2019 to only $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 6 to 11. Children age 5 and under get in free.

The Lakeport Speedway is located at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St.
