ROSEVILLE, Calif. (July 20, 2021) – Race fans will be treated to eight main events of racing on Saturday night at Roseville’s All American Speedway including the North State Modifieds vs. Jaws Gear & Axle Modifieds in the 60-lap Bob Lehman Classic. The one-third mile oval powered by Roseville Toyota also presents a full slate of NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly action with Berco Redwood Late Model Twin 35s, Riebes Super Stocks, F4s, Jr. Late Models, BMR Drivers Academy, and Mini Cup/Bandos racing for bonus cash.

The debut Economy Heating and Air Challenge between the North State Modifieds and Jaws Gear & Axle Modifieds are scheduled for 60-laps and $1,000 to win. The 60 lap feature will commemorate the life and legacy of longtime race enthusiast and NSMS supporter Bob Lehman of Rio Linda who died in 2019 just one day short of his 78th birthday.
Each division will run in accordance with their respective rulebooks, but both will be eligible for the posted awards. The awards include $1,000 to the race winner, $150 to take the green flag, and Authority Heating & Air lap leader bonuses of $250 on both lap five and lap 55.
Each division will earn points as ranked against their own division’s competitors. Former All American Speedway Modified champion Scott Winters of Tracy leads the North State championship by 40 points over Lakeport’s Ian Elliott. Anderson’s Keith Bloom, Klamath Falls, Oregon’s Rich Cobb, and Dustin DeRosier of Cloverdale in fifth.
Eric Price of Rio Linda leads the Jaws Modifieds with four wins ahead of 2020 champion Jason Philpot of Sacramento.

The Mini Cup/Bandolero division will race for $500 to win, $150 for second, $75 for third, and $50 for fifth on top of regularly posted awards.
