For Immediate Release 

CALIFORNIA LIGHTNING SPRINTS LAST PERRIS APPEARANCE SATURDAY! 

(Torrance, CA, September 15, 2015)  The California Lightning Sprint Car Series will head to Perris Auto Speedway one last time, this Saturday night September 19th, for the Glenn Howard Memorial.  Joining the CLS on the famous half-mile for the annual race will be the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars, PAS Senior Sprints and the Young Gun Sprint Cars.  Spectator gates will open at 5:00 PM and the first race will begin at 7:00. 

Lomita’s Bobby Michnowicz, who is seeking a record tying third California Lightning Sprint Car Series title, has dominated the action in 2015 winning seven of the first 11 main events.  Included in his victories is two of the three races at The PAS.  The other winner at The PAS this year was 2010 CLS Jarrett Kramer of Sprint Valley.  Kramer took home the CLS/PAS trophy on July 4th and nearly made it two in row on August 15th, but while leading on the last lap, he bobbled and slid up the race track coming off of turn two and Michnowicz raced by him for the win. 

Michnowicz carries a massive 237-point lead over Fort Irwin’s Jeff Dyer in the championship standings with only four races to go.  Upland’s Alex Grigoreas, who has been plagued by mechanical ills the last two races, slipped back to third, but is only seven points behind Dyer heading into Saturday’s showdown at The PAS.  Veteran racers Dan Hillberg of Placentia and Anaheim’s Dale Gamer hold down the fourth and fifth spots. 

Going into Saturday’s race Chino’s Pat Kelley will bring a slim 6-point advantage over “Rockstar” Jon Robertson of Torrance in the fight for the “Rookie of the Year” award. 

After Saturday’s race, the CLS will only havethree more dates in 2015.  September 26th at the Bakersfield Speedway, October 17th at the Ventura Raceway and November 21st at the Imperial Valley Raceway on the fairgrounds in El Centro.
