RAIN POSTPONES WORLD OF OUTLAWS AT OHSWEKEN TUESDAY NIGHT; DOUBLEHEADER SCHEDULED FOR WEDNESDAY

by Tommy Goudge (July 22, 2008) -
Persistent rain showers and heavily saturated grounds forced Ohsweken Speedway and World of Outlaws Sprint Car series officials to reschedule the World of Outlaws event on Tuesday night.  The event will now be run on Wednesday evening before Wednesday night's scheduled "Six Nations Showdown".  Re-scheduling and ticket details are as follows:

Spectator gates will open at 2:00p.m. on Wednesday afternoon, July 23.  The rescheduled Tuesday portion of the program will be run first, with hot laps and time trials expected to get underway approximately between 4:30p.m. and 5:30p.m., and the first heat race taking to the track at approximately 5:45p.m.  Only tickets for Tuesday night's event will gain fans admission to the Tuesday portion of the program.  Reserved and general admission tickets remain available for this portion of the event. 

Following the conclusion of the Tuesday portion of the program, which includes time trials, heat races, dash race, B-main, and A-Main, the stands will be cleared and Wednesday night ticket holders will then be allowed in to the spectator seating areas.  It is expected that the Tuesday portion of the program will be finished at approximately 7:45p.m.  Reserved and general admission tickets also remain for the regularly scheduled Wednesday portion of the event. 

Reserved seats for the Tuesday portion of the program are $35, or $20 for kids age 12 and under.  Reserved seats for the regularly scheduled Wednesday portion of the program are $40, or $25 for kids age 12 and under.  General admission tickets for both events are available at a cost of $20, or $15 for kids age 12 and under.

Due to time constraints, no support classes will be competing on Wednesday, unfortunately.  The ESSO Thunder Stocks event from Tuesday night will not be made up, and the ESSO Mini-Stock event scheduled for Wednesday night is cancelled.

33 World of Outlaws Sprint Cars and 31 ESSO Thunder Stocks had signed in to the pits on Tuesday night.
