Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series Events at Roaring Knob Postponed

MARKLEYSBURG, PA (April 18, 2013) - Officials of Roaring Knob Motorsports Complex have decided to postpone the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series event scheduled for Friday, April 19th due to forecasts predicting a 100% threat of rain and the potential for severe weather outbreaks in the area. The event has been rescheduled for Sunday, July 28th, and will become part of a three-race swing along with Stateline Speedway in Busti, NY on Friday, July 26th and Hagerstown Speedway in Hagerstown, MD on Saturday, July 27th.

The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series will continue this weekend's remaining stops on the tour through the Appalachians as originally sheduled.

John Blankenship won the last LOLMDS event at Hagerstown last year with an impressive drive to the front from his 17th starting position. Blankenship and the other stars of the LOLMDS will have their hands full with a stout field of drivers that compete at Hagerstown Speedway on a regular basis. The 32nd Annual Stanley Schetrompf Classic will include a complete show on Saturday night April 20th with RED BUCK Time Trials, Heat Races, B-Mains, and $10,000 to win 50-lap feature event.
