  JEFF AND SETH DYER BACK IN ACTION THIS SATURDAY AT VENTURA

  (Yucca Valley, CA, September 25, 2024) Dyer Motorsports will be back on the road this Saturday night, September 28, when the father and son team of Jeff and Seth Dyer make the 165-mile trek from Yucca Valley, California, to the Ventura Raceway. The California Lightning Series race will be the family team's fourth night of action in three weeks. Two weeks ago at Ventura, both the #4 and #4JR were in action. In only his second night back after two months off due to a broken arm and concussion he suffered in a violent crash in a USAC/CRA race at Perris, Jeff, a California Highway Patrol Officer by day, placed third in the main. Seventeen-year-old Seth finished three spots behind his father in sixth. Earlier that night, Jeff recorded the second-fastest qualifying time with a lap of 12.363. Seth, who gets faster with each passing race, was fourth at 12.695. Matched together in the second heat, Jeff captured his lead-tying fourth heat race win of the season. Seth took third in the same race. Those finishes came 24 hours after Jeff placed eighth and Seth finished 11th in the CLS main at the Bakersfield Speedway. Last Saturday night, Seth was representing Dyer Motorsports/Cal Smith Racing in the Perris Auto Speedway Young Gun Series. At the last Young Guns race, Seth swept the show, winning both his heat and the main event going away. Things started out the same last weekend when he won his heat race with a full straightaway advantage. His main event fortunes looked bright. However, his shifter cable broke when he was bumping off for the main event, denying his chance to make it two in a row. In addition to Seth racing with the Young Guns last Saturday, longtime veteran Cal Smith drove the same #39 car in the USAC/CRA portion of the show. Unfortunately, Smith left the action early and finished 18th. Fortunately, his early exit meant he had no chance of being involved in the multitude of accidents that saw several cars destroyed. After Saturday, Jeff and Seth will head north for the final round of the Civil War Series that matches the CLS with Northern California's BCRA in the 10th Albright Memorial at Doug Lockwood's Merced Speedway on October 5th. To see Jeff and Seth take on the CLS' finest this Saturday on the "Best Little Dirt Track In America," adult tickets are $18.00. For seniors 65 and over, it is $15.00. Military and students with ids also get in for $15.00. Kids 12 and under are free when an adult accompanies them. Spectator gates will open at 3:00 p.m., and the first race will get the green flag at 5:30. The track is located on the Ventura County Fairgrounds at 10 W. Harbor Boulevard (93001). The website is http://venturaraceway.com/, and the office phone number is (805) 648-RACE. If you have a Facebook account, Seth did an interview before last Saturday's race. You can hear it here https://www.facebook.com/reel/1019188306156799. In 2024, the following marketing partners will help keep the Dyers on track. Dependable Machine Inc., Haircuts By Susie, Jobu Racing, LBA Investigations, Straight Time Stirrups, Justice Brothers, Fonseca Racing, Specialty Fasteners, and Blud Racing Lubricants.

  EDDIE TAFOYA JR SCORES ANOTHER TOP 10 FINISH AT KERN - HEADED TO VENTURA THIS WEEK

  (Chino, CA, September 7, 2024) After racing on two different racetracks in 24 hours two weeks ago, Eddie Tafoya Jr. returns to action this Saturday night when the Ultimate Sprint Car Series presented by Inland Rigging returns to the Ventura Raceway. It will be the final tune-up at the track before the series returns to wrap up its initial season at the Turkey Night Grand Prix in November. Tafoya's last appearances came on August 31st and September 1st. Up first was the Avanti Windows and Doors USAC/CRA Sprint Cars in the Johnny Vermeer/Narcie Ferreira Classic at Kevin Harvick's Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, where he finished ninth in the main event. Twenty-four hours later, the popular driver led several laps before getting knocked out of the race and finishing 17th in the USCS event at the Santa Maria Speedway. At Kern, Tafoya qualified 14th fastest of the 27 USAC/CRA Cars who turned up to race at the track in the city known as "Nashville West." A second-place finish in the beautiful #51T in his 10-lap heat race had the 27-year-old primed and ready for a good run in the main event. Despite starting 14th in the 30 lapper, Tafoya showed that he had speed on the night. The Chino Hills, California Racer managed to move forward and stay out of the turn-one hole that plagued many competitors. When the checkered flag ended the race, he had moved up five spots to finish ninth. That gave the friendly driver eight straight top 10s in USAC/CRA this season. It was also his eighth top 10 in 11 starts in the tough series. The following night, Tafoya shined in qualifying at Santa Maria. In the USCS, drivers draw a number and time trial against the racers they will compete with in their heat race. Tafoya was the fastest qualifier in his group, and his time of 13.522 was the fourth fastest time in the 26-car field. After a fifth-place finish in his 10-lap heat, Tafoya lined up outside the front row for the main event. On a track that was definitely a "Cowboy Up Surface," Tafoya flew into the lead at the drop of the green flag. The 2019 USAC/CRA Rookie of the Year maintained the top spot for the first five laps before slipping back to second on the rough terrain. "It was very tough," Tafoya said of leading the race with cars right behind. "Especially getting into lapped traffic in two and a half laps or whatever it was. I kind of overshot the setup a little bit. I got too aggressive when I probably should have rolled it back a bit when I knew it was going to be rough. I knew I was starting up front, and I knew I did not want to be too loose and I ended up being too tight." "It is really tough on the restarts when you are tight," the 2018 Perris Young Gun champion continued. "That is pretty much the only time I was losing anything. Besides that, we were going forward." Tafoya stayed in the top five for over three-quarters of the race. However, after a lap 24 restart, he was hit by another car on his left side in turn four. The clatter sheared off the steering arm from the steering box. It knocked him out of the race and lowered him from a top-five finish to 17th. "For the first time in a long time, I felt really balanced," Tafoya said about the speed over the weekend. "I felt like I could go anywhere I really wanted to. That was good to feel as it has been a while since I had that. It was work through the week; I just went through everything. I made sure everything was perfect, square, and centered. I made sure all of my measurements were right. Sometimes you have a spell of races where you're just not feeling it, so you just have to go back through all that stuff." Tafoya will be making his third appearance of the season at Ventura this Saturday, September 14. The now-veteran driver hopes to improve on his frustrating results at the famous track earlier this year. On June 1st, at the start of the main, Tafoya was leading the pack going into turn one when something broke in the front end of his car and sent him careening into the wall. That ended his night. Seven weeks later, at the track known as "The Commotion By The Ocean," he was drilled from behind on a restart. The blow resulted in a flat tire that knocked him out of the race. The veteran driver is more than capable of big results on the track located adjacent to the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean on the Ventura County Fairgrounds. Two years ago when USAC/CRA visited Ventura, Tafoya outqualified the field and placed fifth in the 30-lap main event. Spectator gates to see Tafoya at Ventura will open at 3:00 p.m., with racing at 5:30. Adult tickets are $22.00. Seniors 60 and over, military with ID, and students with an ID get in for $18.00. Children 12 and under are free when they are accompanied by an adult. The track is located on the Ventura County Fairgrounds at 10 W. Harbor Boulevard (93001). The website is http://venturaraceway.com/, and the office phone number is (805) 648-RACE. Friendly Tafoya is always happy to meet the fans in the pits after every race. He will sign autographs, pose for photos, and sell his beautiful 2024 team shirts. For fans who cannot attend the races, the team shirts are available at www.specialty-fasteners.com. Fans can follow Tafoya on Instagram @eddietafoya51. Tafoya and the #51T team would like to thank Specialty Fasteners, Inland Rigging, BR Motorsports, King Racing Products, Gasper Transportation, CMI Precision Machining, Owen's Insurance Services, Keen Concrete, DRC Chassis, and Rider Racing Engines for supporting its racing program.
