LAKEPORT – Founders Cup Night is this Saturday, April 24, at the Lakeport Speedway.
It will be an action-packed night with the racing kicking off at 6:30 p.m. at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St., Lakeport.
With Mother Nature winning the first night's events after qualifying was complete, the speedway will hold its opening night at the speedway again this weekend. Mother Nature let them race long enough to see the Coors Light Modified track record be shattered by Mark Marek of Lakeport at a 12.386.
There is an action-packed card this Saturday night at the New Super Speedway featuring the Coors Light Modifieds, the ever-exciting Clover Hydro Jammers, the Snake Pit Development Bombers, the Nor-Cal Pro 4 Modifieds and the NCRA Mini Stocks.
There will be a kids tire race where four teams of four kids will race tires for prizes and Jim Kelly will be inducted into the NCRA Hall of Fame.
All the hot drivers in the Coors Light Modifieds will be on hand to see if they can break Marek’s new track record that was set at the last race. They know the time is short before the sun's rays beat down on the track and make it impossible to beat the time.
Coming off a rainout the crews have the cars all polished up and they are all revved up to go racing.
Come out and see all the new changes at Lakeport Speedway and cheer for your favorite driver and all the new drivers as well.
Bring your kids to the race track and sign them up to participate in the first tire race of the season at Lakeport Speedway.
Also out this weekend will be the new Lakeport Speedway Speedy Signature Shuttle, where kids can get autographs from the drivers through out the night.
The management is looking forward to making this your community based not-for-profit speedway.
