| BIG CAR OPENER VICTIM OF INDIANA RAIN! |
|
The Premier Racing Associations inaugural event, the Circle City 100 at
Indianapolis Raceway Park, was postponed Wednesday night and will be rescheduled
at a later date. After 26 Big Cars had qualified and preparations were being made to start the feature race, rain began falling on the I-R-P oval. When it became evident the rain wasn’t going to stop soon, P-R-A and I-R-P officials decided to postpone the event. “We discussed several options”, stated P-R-A co-founder Jason Smith, “and although no scenario pleases everyone, we believe the solution we came up with is the best for our fans and race teams. We will honor rain checks from Wednesday night at our previously scheduled Big Car race at I-R-P on July 5th. Wednesday night’s rained out race, will be rescheduled for a later date.” Rescheduling for Thursday night was not an option due to the fact that both the oval and drag strip at I-R-P were previously booked. “We are as disappointed as anyone that the weather which washed out two days of qualifying at the nearby Indianapolis Motor Speedway last weekend, claimed our event too”, said Smith. “But our spirits are not dampened and we look forward to our next event at Illiana Motor Speedway in Schererville, Indiana June 13th”. Race fans are urged to check our website www.praracing.com regularly for information concerning Wednesday night’s rescheduled event. |
