What a great weekend in Ventura! Thanks to all
who made the trek (racers and fans), to all our
officials who help make the show a success and to
the entire Ventura Raceway staff and particularly
to Jim Naylor for upgrading the track prep to
provide us a racier surface this season.
First off, Loudpedal Productions has updated our
California Lightning Sprints YouTube channel (
(23) California Lightning Sprints - YouTube) with
the videos from this weekend’s 2 main events. You
can check them out here:
Make-up main event
for Race#1 (3/16/22): California Lightning Sprints
at Ventura Raceway 3-16-22
4/30 Main event:
California Lightning Sprints at Ventura Raceway
4-30-22
Look for Scott’s press release
coming soon for further details on the weekend.
Now for some CLS procedural news. Starting at
our next event (Bakersfield on May 14th) we will
no longer be collecting $25 for pill draw at the
track. We will simply deduct the $25 fee from the
event payout for each car signed in. This will
hopefully streamline the sign-in process as each
car will just have to sign in and draw their pill.
Cars that did not make the main event will not
receive any payout and cars that start the main
event will have the $25 sign in fee automatically
deducted from the purse. This is simply an
accounting change and doesn’t penalize anyone, it
fundamentally streamlines our processes.
