LAKEPORT, Calif. – Monster trucks, boat races, mudd boggs and jalopies will all be creating “Mayhem in the Mud” at the Lakeport Speedway this Friday and Saturday night.

Fans will be presented with two nights of monster trucks with the trucks from Straight Up Racing taking the field both nights.

Friday night will also be the final race in the 2016 Mudd Bogg Challenge with drivers competing for championship status.

Jalopie races will be happening on the infield Saturday along with the monster trucks and then at the end of the night, the finale of the Lakeport Speedway asphalt track will be the ever popular boat races.

Boat races normally happen on water but since there is no water at Lakeport Speedway, the boats are towed behind vehicles.

The track is slick, the boats slide and the drivers run into their opponent’s boats while trying to protect their boat that they are towing. It is carnage and fun to the extreme. Fans decide who wins with a cheering vote at the end of the night so drivers really try to put on a show.

Racing promoter David Furia enjoys putting on an end of the year tribute to the incredible support of the racing community.

“We have had a great year of motor action and I cannot thank the racers, their family, my crew and the fans enough for their parts in making this year such a success,” said Furia. “I am proud to put on these shows right here at home and look forward to the fans coming out and having a great time at the races this weekend. Straight Up Racing puts on a really cool show and we are fortunate to have two nights of trucks, and truck rides. We are also bringing on some of our most popular racing activities with the Mudd Boggs, the boat races and the newest class of racers, Jalopies. I am really stoked to have this awesome night of racing action.”

Straight up Racing features trucks like Rock Star, California Kid, Skeletor, Canadian Tough Guy and Identity Theft. They also present two ride-on monster trucks, Western Warrior Ride Truck and Hot Stuff, a modified classic fire truck.

Single day tickets and discounted two-day passes can be purchased ahead of time online at www.brownpapertickets.com or the night of the show. Single day tickets are $15 for anyone 12 and over, $12 for ages 5 to 11 with 4 and under being free. Two-day passes can be purchased at $25 for 12 and up, or $20 ages 5 to 11.
