ATQMRA Updates Schedule
Our rain-out from Mahoning Valley Speedway (original date June 27th) has been rescheduled for Saturday, June 25th, 2020. This will be our first official race of the season.
Based on CONFIRMED dates via track promoters, our current up-to-date schedule is as follows-
Sat July 11th- Wall Stadium (Practice Day)
Sat July 18th- Wall Stadium (Practice Day)
Sat July 25th- Mahoning Valley (Early Practice + Regular Show)
Sat Aug 15th- Bethel Motor Speedway (Regular Show)
Sat Sept 19th- Chapel Hill Speedway (Regular Show)
Sat Nov 7th- Bethel Motor Speedway (Regular Show)
Diane has not been permitted to open yet for spectators by the Township per my understanding. We are cautiously optimistic Wall Stadium will open up for races on Saturday, August 1st. While everything is fluid, we would hope under this circumstance we would be able to race at Wall Stadium on Saturday, August 8th, since we were originally on the schedule for that date before the pandemic/lockdowns began.
Everything I just stated above pertaining to Wall is 100% unofficial. Diane said when there is an update we will receive one. I am just trying to help everyone prepare the best I can although there are still so many unknowns. I am simply speculating based on a number of different common-sense factors, I am not trying to start a rumor. The fact of the matter- the Wall Stadium situation remains extremely fluid.
There may or may not be an opportunity to add races at Bethel and Mahoning as well before season’s end. Having strong car counts at our already scheduled shows would surely help our case to add on more races. As I have mentioned in a previous email- yes these are trying times, but we all need to work together as a club and as a community to stay strong and make this year the best it can be. It is going to take every single one of us to do our part.
We still really haven’t heard any updates from Waterford, other than their grandstands being rebuilt prior to the pandemic/lockdown.
As races are added/adjusted, you will hear it here first. Your patience, understanding, and flexibility is greatly appreciated.
