WEATHER CANCELS PPMS

WEATHER CANCELS PPMS

Imperial, PA (August 13, 2016)  The Saturday, August 13 racing program at Pittsburgh’s Pennsylvania Motor Speedway was canceled due to inclement weather.  The facility had been saturated by days of rain prior to today’s event, and when morning rains hit with the promise of more bad weather later in the day, the speedway was forced to cancel the evening’s racing card.

Racing continues, weather permitting of course, on Saturday, August 20.  It will be Nostalgia Night, presented by Colussy Chevrolet.  There will be Kids Bike Races, as AAA Members receive a $5 discount on general admission.  The Diehl Automotive Super Late Models, Precise Racing Products RUSH Pro Late Models, Sunoco Race Fuels Sportsman, Miley BP Car Wash Hobby Stocks, Imperial Heights Garage Young Guns, and Open Four Cylinders will be joined by the CarSmile Wiperblades “Thunder on the Dirt” Vintage Racing Series, racing their restored cars of yesteryear.

Rounding out the month of August 27 will be the Tenth Annual Red Miley Rumble for the Super Late Models, sanctioned by the UFo Race Championship.  The 35 lap event will pay $3,053 to the winner, as the Pro Late Models, Sportsman, Hobby Stocks, and Young Guns will also share the card.

For Saturday night’s racing program, the gates will open at 5:00, with warm-ups at 6:00 and racing at 7:00.  Keep an eye on all developments during race nights on the track’s Twitter account at @PAMotorSpeedway including starting and finishing race lineups.  The track is located west of the city of Pittsburgh, just south of the Noblestown exit of U.S. Route 22, or 170 Kelso Road in Imperial, PA, for GPS purposes.  The track phone is 724-695-3363 on race days, or call 412-279-RACE.  For complete information please visit the track website at www.ppms.com .
