God must of needed a race car driver!

It is with great sadness as I pass along that "Screamin" Karl Lehmann 71K has passed away today December 25, 2019.

Karl was born in 1963, which is the first year the Nevada Speedway opened. Karl had attended the races at his home track all his life and has multiple championships and feature wins. 

Karl would help any driver anyway possible and always had time for his fans. He was a crowd favorite and had competed in many different divisions during his lifetime. He will be missed by so many in the racing community.

Please keep Karl's family and friends in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time, especially during the holiday season.

Rest in Peace, and Godspeed Karl.
