Due to nearly 6 inches of rain over the last three days, rain at the track now, and overcast conditions forecasted for tomorrow, Ben Hur Speedway is postponing the Shooky Summer Shootout and Shooky 2 event for this weekend.
We are rescheduling to the posted rain date of Saturday August 8th.
Even with sun forecasted for Saturday, we do not feel that would give us enough time to get on the track in order to get it race ready for our earlier start time, plus there's no guarantee that we could even get on the track Saturday if it continues to rain. We want to make sure we provide the best racing surface for racers who were coming from as far as New Jersey to this weekend's race, and just don't feel we can do that, as the track has standing water in the groove and a thick layer of muddy mush on the balance.
We look forward to the new scheduled date, with hopes for great weather then, and we'll support the WEB event, which will be rescheduled for Friday, August 7th.
We appreciate your understanding and support of Ben Hur Speedway.
