(April
11, 2013) -
Officials from Anderson Speedway, with
co-operation from CRA Powered by JEGS officials, announced that due to
forecasted frigid wind chill temperatures for this Saturday evening, the
season opener for the ARCA/CRA Super Series Powered by JEGS has been
postponed. The “Sell it Again, Sam !” 125 presented by Great Deals Savings
Magazine and Ponderosa Steakhouse at Anderson Speedway has now been moved to
Saturday, May 4.
"It's always a big deal when the stars from CRA show up for the Super Series
events, and we owe it to the fans to try and give them the best environment
possible to enjoy the show," commented Anderson Speedway President Rick
Dawson. "With forecasted wind chills in the evening in the mid 30's, it just
wasn't going to be any fun for fans, racers or officials...and the bottom
line is, this needs to be fun for everyone!"
As a result of the postponement of Saturday Night's activities and
subsequent reschedule, the CRA Stealth Street Stocks Powered by JEGS event
that was originally scheduled on Saturday Night May 4, has been moved to
Saturday, April 27. The Night of Thrills has been removed on Saturday, April
27. The WMDH ThunderCars, Legends and Front Wheel Drive Oval divisions are
joining CRA Stealth Street Stocks Powered by JEGS to round out the racing
lineup.
Anderson Speedway officials also noted that the 13th Annual Glen Niebel
Classic Mel Kenyon 100 for the USSA Sprint Car Challenge Series powered by
UAW and Kenyon Midgets on Sunday afternoon are on schedule. The weather
forecasted for the afternoon events as sunny and almost 70 degrees.
Anderson's open practice scheduled for Friday evening is still on as well.
