LAKEPORT, Calif. – Lake County Public Health Officer Dr. Gary Pace has approved a plan for “test and tune” practice sessions at the Lakeport Speedway this Saturday, May 23, and Sunday, May 24.
The practice will take place from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days.
The events will be sanctioned by Northern California Racing Association.
Several requirements will be in place and participants are asked to please follow them, as this is the first step in showing that the speedway can abide by the specified guidelines in order to have a racing season.
Grandstands and concessions will be closed to spectators.
Participants are limited to a total number of six people – five in addition to the race car driver – and will be escorted to a designated pit area. Pit fees will be $35 for NCRA members and $45 for non-members.
• Participants will be required to sign the standard waiver/release as well as an additional COVID-19 waiver/release.
• All teams will pit 10 feet apart.
• Participants will remain in their designated pit area and will adhere to the 6-foot social distancing requirement from other participants.
• Participants will be allowed in the spectator area to watch their respective team car when it is on the track.
There will be no more than three cars on the track at a time, and pit crews will not be allowed to co-mingle.
The events will be monitored for compliance and will be reviewed after the weekend so that more events of this nature may be considered by Dr. Pace.
