Due to Heavy Rains this Week and 60-70% Chance of Rain on Friday at Needmore Speedway in Norman Park, Georgia, and a 50% chance of afternoon and evening rain forecasted for Saturday's event at All-Tech Raceway in Lake City, Florida the tough call to cancel these two highly anticipated Hoosier Racing Tire USCS Outlaw Thunder Tour presented by XC Gear events has been made.

Always a decision no one is looking forward to. On the bright side weather is looking better going forward. Please review the upcoming events over the next two weekends and let's get ready to race, as there has been so little racing due to the weather in the past month, not only with the United Sprint Car Series, but all over the Southeast.

Hope to see you soon!
