Speedway
April
6 Test and Tune Day Cancelled
60th Season Opener Now First on
Eldora Menu – April 13 / Little Eldora Still on for Sunday
ROSSBURG,
OH (April 1) – The
untypical spring weather that has plagued the Midwest with continued
cold temperatures
and record snowfalls over the past few weeks has also played havoc with
the
Eldora Speedway track crew and their efforts to produce an ideal racing
surface
for Saturday’s (April 6) scheduled Test and Tune Day.
As a result, the session has been
canceled.
The
Test and Tune cancelation has
not affected Sunday’s season opening SpringBuster event for go-karts on
the 1/7
mile Little Eldora Speedway. With
free
general admission, over a dozen classes of karts are scheduled to take
the
green flag at 12:30 p.m.
Saturday’s
cancelation will move
Eldora’s first action on the historic .500-mile clay oval to Saturday,
April 13
with the 60th Season Opener.
On tap
will be a tripleheader program featuring the Sunoco American Late Model
Series,
along with UMP DIRTcar Modifieds and Eldora Stock Cars as all three
divisions
begin their quest towards 2013 championship titles.
Admission
gates on April 13 will
swing open at 4 p.m., while track action begins at 6 p.m. with a short
practice
session for each division followed by a complete racing program which
will take
the green flag at 7:30 p.m.
Complete
event and advance ticket
purchase information for the 60th Season Opener, along with the other
exciting
race events on the 2013 Eldora calendar, is available on the track’s
website
www.EldoraSpeedway.com. Race
fans and
