HUTCHINSON, KS (May 28, 2026) — With heavy rainfall drenching the grounds at Salt City Speedway throughout the week, in addition to more rain expected today and tomorrow, American Sprint Car Series and track officials have decided to postpone Saturday’s clash between the National Tour and ASCS Gunsmoke Region.
The decision was made keeping the best interests of traveling fans and race teams in mind.
Officials are looking for a suitable reschedule date for the 2026 season, which will be announced at a later date.
The American Sprint Car Series will turn its focus towards June for the Don Swope Classic at Creek County Speedway on Friday, June 5. Then, the Series will travel to Park City, KS, for the Salute to Service Sprint Car Showdown at 81 Speedway on Saturday, June 6. The ASCS Sooner Region will join the National Tour for both nights, while the Gunsmoke Region will compete at 81 Speedway.
