HEAVY RAINS WASH OUT FLAT ROCK CHAMPIONSHIPS
Flat Rock Speedway’s Harris Mechanical Season Championships that were scheduled for Saturday, August 26 have been cancelled.
The Southeast Michigan area was hammered with 6 to 7 inches of rain early Thursday morning and again late Thursday night. The track infield was totally flooded.
As of 9 a.m. Saturday, turns 3 and 4 have water weeping across the track in several spots. Water was still standing in turns 1 and 2 and above the yellow line. The parking lot is covered in standing water.
“The water weeping on the track is our biggest issue,” noted Ron Drager, Owner and Promoter of the track. We have worked all day Thursday and Friday into the night to try to get the facility ready for today”, said Drager. “We would not be able to race in these conditions”.
As previously announced, the event will not be rescheduled.
The 2023 ARCA/Flat Rock Speedway champions are Justin Schroeder, Moran Chevrolet Outlaw Super Late Models; Jeremy Vanderhoof, R & M Recycling Figure 8’s; Kenyon Knight, DTS Drive Train Specialists Street Stock A Main; Ian Jezylo, DTS Drive Train Specialists Street Stock B Main; and Derrick Sheppard, Safety Kleen Enduro Series.
The final 2023 event is set for next Saturday, September 2. The Dunwell Dry Goods School Bus Figure 8 race is the featured event of the night. The Figure 8’s, Street Stocks and the Safety Kleen Factory Stocks will also be in action with a features-only format. A Boat Figure 8 race and a Flag Pole race are also on the race card.
The event has a special start time of 6 p.m. The front gates and ticket office will open at 3:30 p.m. on race day.
You can purchase tickets in person at the track office or call the track office at 734-782-2480 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or online at www.flatrockspeedway.com. General admission tickets only are available online.
