Fans bared the heat to see their favorite drivers and the fireworks at Lakeport and Ukiah Speedways Independence Weekend.

Saturday at Lakeport Speedway brought out the Taco Bell Bombers, the Modifieds and the Northern California Modified Sprint Cars at the Kelseyville Lumber Deake Lyndall Memorial.
