Mechanicsburg – With heavy rain Thursday night and through the entire day Friday leaving several areas of standing water and unusable track conditions at Williams Grove Speedway and more rain projected in the evening on Saturday, World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car and track officials have agreed to cancel night two of the HVAC Distributors Morgan Cup presented by Daikin slated for Saturday.
Officials worked diligently throughout Saturday morning to prepare the facility, but cold, cloudy conditions prevented the track from drying into usable condition. The decision to cancel comes with the safety of competitors in mind.
The HVAC Distributors Morgan Cup bonus and posted $5,000 will now be paid out as part of the Friday World of Outlaws Summer Nationals event to be held at the track coming up on July 26.
Williams Grove returns to action on Friday, May 17 with a Yellow Breeches 500 event for the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars and another race for the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprints.
Action gets underway at 7:30 pm.
