12, 2008: Announcement:
SCSCS revised 2008 Race Schedule:
As most everyone knows by now, the May 3rd, Columbus, OH event
was unfortunately cancelled as a result of a pending rain storm.
At this time, a make-up date for this event has not been scheduled.
In addition, series officials have decided to cancel the originally
scheduled June 6 and October 25th events at Tri-County Motor
Speedway. The series and track promoters were unable to agree
on insurance issues and the races were mutually cancelled.
The result of these events presented a unique opportunity for
the Series to revise its remaining 2008 race schedule.
The Friday, June 6 event will be moved to Newport Motor Speedway
on June 7th. “The series enjoyed its first event at Newport
, TN and looks forward to returning on June 7 and October 4th
for the remaining 2008 events. The Saturday date is more appealing
to the series and our competitors”, replied Joe Schmaling.
To replace the event that was cancelled in OH, officials have
committed to an event at Lonesome Pine Speedway on Saturday,
August 2nd. According to Schmaling, “We are honored to race
at Lonesome Pine Speedway. While we regret not getting to race
at Columbus, this event is another quality facility for our
series. Many of our teams and drivers have raced there in the
past. It should be a great event.”
These changes along with the existing dates will comprise the
2008 schedule. With the October 25th cancellation, the series
has one remaining open date for its final race of 2008. Officials
are presently in contact with several facilities including Shenandoah,
Motor Mile, Concord, and Hickory to determine where the 2008
series champion will be crowned!
