Saturday night’s 30-lap AMSOIL USAC/CRA Sprint race at Perris Auto Speedway celebrates the centennial of the city of Perris, Calif. A “sky concert” will highlight the entertainment package.

Matt Mitchell of Yorba Linda, Calif. will be out to protect his five-point lead over defending series champion Mike Spencer.

Mitchell won the last Perris race and has also posted a third and fourth at the half-mile dirt oval this season. On the other hand, Spencer won the first two Perris races this year.
