Press Release

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Lucas Oil Go-Kart Shootout RESCHEDULED For October 31st, November 1-2nd

JACKSONVILLE, FL (October 22, 2008)- The 2nd Annual Lucas Oil Go-Kart Shootout, presented by Earl Pearson Jr. has been Rescheduled for Oct 31st, Nov 1-2nd. After conferring with Conway Speedway officials and watching the weather over the past two days the event will be pushed back one week. The national and local forecast is calling for rain on both Friday and Saturday this weekend in Conway, SC.

"With the number of racers expected to attend this event and traveling from as far as New York it is best we make a decision today. If it rains much on Friday then it would be hard to get everyone parked in the pits Saturday morning and it would be a muddy mess. As much as I hate to postpone it we all feel it would be the best decision to run it the following weekend with a much better weather forecast. We can't get this event done in one day and we would be taking a chance that Saturday might be a complete loss. Hopefully everyone understands and takes in consideration we have racers pre-entered that are traveling long distances and they need to know in time before they head our way. I really don't want to postpone it because I'm scheduled to race in Charlotte next weekend. As big as this event is it will be better next weekend to be able to get both days events completed", stated Earl.

The schedule of events will stay the same with practice on Friday, October 31st and racing on Saturday and Sunday November 1-2nd.
