ROSEVILLE, California -- Golden State Racing and driver Eric Schmidt will return to All American Speedway in Roseville, CA, Saturday night, hoping to extend their 14 point lead in the NASCAR-sanctioned Late Model action on the asphalt oval. Schmidt has won four straight features at his home track.

With All American Speedway Late Models having the last two weekends off, the team embarked for Altamont and Madera.

The Altamont appearance on May 19th netted a runner-up finish with several laps led. Saturday night, at Madera Speedway, Schmidt qualified third and finished second in the dash.

Schmidt was running seventh 35 laps into the 100 lap feature, but had been involved in two separate incidents that had damaged the right front of the car. Car owner

Frank Jordan decided to park the car to prevent any further damage.

Golden State Racing is in the midst of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series state points battle, with races at Altamont, Madera, and Roseville being eligible for points. In seven starts in 2007, Schmidt has earned four wins, five top-fives, and six top-tens.

Action Saturday kicks off at 5:30 p.m. with dashes, followed by features. Schmidt will be competing in the JM Environmental 75 for the Late Models.
