NLRA series action continues this Saturday night, July the 26th, at the Devils Lake Speedway near Doyon, ND. The race is scheduled to be the fourteenth appearance at the three eighths mile clay oval that is located 15 miles east of Devils Lake. The track originally opened in 2000, and continued hosting weekly racing action until it closed for two seasons in 2009, before reopening for the 2011 season. Since then only Canadian drivers Bill Mooney, driver of the No. 2 Lithia Toyota/Pizza Ranch Rocket and former series champion Ricky Weiss driver of the Derrick's Sandblasting No. 7 have visited victory lane. Brad Seng, driver of the No. 12S S&S Transport Mars MB Custom lead all 25 laps, collecting his third win of the 2014 NLRA season last Thursday night at the Red River Co-Op Speedway in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The victory was also Seng's 23rd career series victory, as he now sits three wins behind the late John Seitz for most in series history. Seng blasted out to an early lead, but was followed closely by Mike Balcaen, driver of the No. 10 Northstar Canada Victory Circle. Seng's initial lead was erased by an incident involving Bill Mooney, driver of the No. 2 Lithia Toyota/Pizza Ranch Rocket and Winnipeg regular Rick Fawcett.

This Thursday night July the 17th, the NLRA will try to take mother nature out of the win column and race at the Red River Co-op Speedway near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The race is scheduled to be the series' 23rd appearance at the four-tenths mile oval that sits five minutes south of Winnipeg on Highway 75. The NLRA's first event was held at the track when it was the Victory Lane Speedway in June 1998 with Howie Schill becoming the first winner in series history. The Northern Late Model Racing Association has rescheduled their only appearance this season to the Greenbush Race Park in Greenbush, MN for this Saturday night, July the 12th. The series was originally scheduled to race in Greenbush on June 14th, but the race was cancelled due to rain. This race is to be the series return, and the 21st appearance overall to Greenbush after nearly three years away from the three-eighths mile dirt oval. The track which originally opened in 1991, remained closed throughout the 2012 season. But weekly racing did return to Greenbush last season. The tracks' long straightaways and tight corners produce some of the closest racing on the NLRA calendar. Racing starts at 7pm Saturday night. Jeff Wildung and Cody Skytland were feature winners at the Norman County Raceway last week, while rain claimed what was to be the series debut at the I-94 Speedway in Fergus Falls, MN, and the third appearance of the season at the Viking Speedway in Alexandria, MN. Jeff Wildung, in the No. 50 Veit Companies Rocket started fourth and took the lead from Ricky Weiss on lap seven, leading the remainder of the 30 lapper. The win is his eleventh NLRA series victory, and first away from the Viking Speedway. The win also ties him with Zach Johnson and Ricky Weiss for fifth on the NLRA all time wins list. |
