SGMP SEASON OPENER POSTPONED

South Georgia Motorsports Park season-opening National Dragster and Junior
Dragster Challenge, set for this weekend, January 19-20 has been postponed due
to inclement weather and a poor weekend forecast. The event, which was also
pegged as the season’s first Summit E.T. Points series event for the track’s
season-long points series, will be rescheduled although a date has not yet been
set.
“This marks the second time that mother nature has interfered with this
event,” lamented SGMP’s Tim Fleming (the event was originally scheduled for
December 29-30). “We’ve had rain all week, and the facility is drenched. The
forecast for the weekend is cold and damp--and if it stopped raining right now,
I’m not sure the track could be in racing condition by Saturday morning. We’ve
had calls and interest in this event by racers from several states away. In the
interest of those travelers, and the safety of each competitor, we’ve made the
decision to pull the plug. Unfortunately, it just won’t happen this
weekend.”
Stay tuned to South Georgia Motorsports Park’s online home: www.RaceSGMP.com for information and details
as to the rescheduled date of this event, and more.
