The NLRA is set to embark on the busiest stetch of the series twenty anniversary season this week, as four races in five nights lie ahead.

The stretch will feature a return for the first time in eleven years to the Sheyenne River Speedway in Lisbon, ND. The race is scheduled to be the twelfth for the series on the quarter-mile oval on the Ransom County Fairgrounds on Lisbon's west end.
​

The track, which is affectionately known as 'the Boneyard', has been in operation for over forty years, but has been running on it's current quarter-mile configuration since 1982.

Brad Seng, driver of the No. 12S S&S Transport MB Custom, will head into the Boneyard as the winningest driver at the track. Seng won three times between 2001 and 2003. Troy Schill and Steve Anderson also have one win each at the Boneyard.

The four race stretch starts with races at the Red River Valley Speedway and Norman County Raceway. Cole Schill, driver of the No. 44 Gateway Chevrolet MasterSbilt by JMR, and Dustin Strand, driver of the No. 71 Q&Z Plumbing & Heating Millenium, split the races in Fargo last season. Jeff Wildung, and Brad Seng split the season series in Ada last year.

The Third race on the mini-series features the series only visit this season to the Jamestown Speedway in Jamestown, ND. Shane Edginton, driver of the No. 4 Performance Auto Victory by Moyer stole the win from Mike Balcaen at the line last August. Zach Naastad, driver No. Z17 Q&Z Plumbing & Heating Millenium, won his first series race at the quarter-mile oval on the Stutsman County Fairgrounds last June.
