A little slow this week with the holiday but its another lull before the storm of action.

Racing preview this week is a bit slim as the Easter holiday is upon us. Most national and international series are taking a holiday until things get going with a bang next week.

However there are a few things happening in our region and over the hill.

For drag racers Summit Racing will the place to be on Saturday. The NHRA will have chassis certification there from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m.

On Saturday, at 10 p.m., MAVTV will broadcast the World Rally from Monte Carlo.

Sunday is a bit busier and at noon NBC Sports broadcast a one-hour program, shot last fall, about the Reno National Championship Air Races.
