WINNIPEG, MB (May 10, 2013) With Manitoba’s dirt track racing season fast approaching, the members of the Northern Lightning Sprint Association are preparing to do battle for bragging rights to the 2013 NLSA Championship.

Celebrating it’s 5th season, the NLSA promises to be the showstopper that racing fans have come to expect from the high-flying open wheel class.  Manitoba’s fastest cars on dirt will be showcased every Monday night starting on May 27th at Winnipeg’s Red River Co-op Speedway and 7 Sunday afternoons at Morden’s ALH Motor Speedway including 2 dates during the Corn and Apple Festival. Morden’s first date for the Lightning Sprints is June 2nd.

Returning to action will be 3-time NLSA Champion Roland Bernard in his familiar #2 sprinter.  He will also have plenty of company vying for the checkered flag this season.  In 2012 many teams found their way to victory lane and will be hunting for more including Chris Sorin, Dylan Sabatini, Chris Unrau, Frank Elias, Wally Butler and Amber Balcaen.

Speaking of Amber Balcaen, she will be driving for WB Racing this season. In 2012, Balcaen chalked up multiple wins plus she got a taste of success, earning her first Track Championship at ALH Motor Speedway. Raising her game to the next level and racing one of Wally Butler’s cars will make Amber a greater threat each and every race night.  Fans who remember Butler’s blistering performances from last season will know why this could be a huge deal for Balcaen.

In the coming weeks, many questions will start to be answered. Who will take the first checkered flag of the season? Who will be victorious and win the 2 Manitoba Track Championships up for grabs? Who will become the 2013 Northern Lightning Sprint Association Champion?

On any given night, any team is capable of winning. This is why the Northern Lightning Sprint Association is arguably the most competitive and evenly matched field of cars to race on a Manitoba dirt oval track. Dirt slinging action that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
