THE CRAZIEST
SHOW ON DIRT, NIGHT OF DESTRUCTION,
RETURNS TO PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY THIS
SATURDAY
By Scott Daloisio
(Perris, CA, August 30, 2022)
After one of its wildest shows in recent
memory on August 7th, “The Craziest Show
On Dirt,” Night of Destruction presented
by LKQ Pick Your Part, returns to Perris
Auto Speedway this Saturday night,
September 3rd. The crash-a-minute show
that provides fun for the whole family
will feature daring Figure 8 Racing, a
wild Figure 8 Trailer Race, the mighty
Mini Stocks, rough and tumble Demo Cross,
and the crowd favorite zany Double
Deckers. Spectator gates will open at 5:00
p.m. and the crashing will start at 7:00.

Fans are encouraged to come
out early on Saturday so kids can collect
free candy, get autographs, and meet all
the drivers on the track from 5:15 – 5:45.
Practice will commence soon after that and
the destruction will start promptly at
7:00.
When the show last appeared
at the world-famous Riverside County speed
plant on August 13th, fans were treated to
the biggest field of Double Deckers ever
to appear at the track since their
inclusion in the show a half-decade ago.
When six of them emerged from the back pit
area, the enthusiastic crowd roared its
approval. The class, which features one
car bolted on top of another, has yet to
disappoint and grows crazier with each
addition to the field. When you consider
that the driver on the bottom controls the
gas pedal and the brakes and the driver in
the car on top controls the steering,
something is bound to go wrong and when it
does with two cars stacked on top of each
other, it is big.
“As the Double
Decker field grows, the competition gets
tougher and tougher,” said Don Kazarian,
who has promoted the track for over a
quarter of a century. “They keep getting
faster and faster which results in intense
competition. Just when you think it cannot
get crazier, it does. When they pull on
the track for their races, and even before
the show starts when they do their hot
laps, there is no line at the concession
stands and no line for the restrooms. All
the fans want to be in the stands to see
what is going to happen. You really have
to see it to believe it and even when you
do, you cannot believe some of the
predicaments they get into when they are
racing. They are sensational.”
Heading into this week’s crash fest,
Trebor Stephens of San Jacinto has a
comfortable 35-point lead over his closest
pursuer in Demo Cross. The Figure 8 class
is a lot tighter as Riverside’s Roger
Storey, who took the lead from veteran
Kevin Cox of Foothill Ranch at the last
race, now has a nine-point lead coming
into Saturday. Kameron Perry of Riverside
has run up a 30-point lead in the Mini
Stocks heading into Saturday’s night of
mayhem. In the Double Deckers, the Ghost
Busters car driven by John Flowers and
Martin Bygum sits on top of the points
charts while Brian Kedzior of Riverside
currently holds down the top spot in both
the Figure 8 Trailer and the Overall
combined Iron Man title. In the F8
Trailers, his lead is a mere six points
over Whittier’s Michael Schattilly. Rob
Multhaupt Jr. of Orange is only 12-behind.
In Iron Man, which combines points from
all the classes, Kedzior has a commanding
75-point lead over Schattilly.
Among the rising stars and most popular
drivers who will be competing on Saturday
is elementary school teacher Casey
Multhaupt. Competing in the rough and
tumble world of Demo Cross, she is fifth
in the points entering Saturday’s races.
One of her competitors is her father Rob
Multhaupt Jr. who is 13th in the
standings.

Saturday’s “Crashaganza” are $20.00. For
kids 6-12 it is just $5.00, and children 5
