Forecasts doom Kentucky Speedweek
Facing a wet forecast, the five-race inaugural Kentucky Speedweek that includes $5,000-to-win Super Late Model events has been cancelled, promoters announced. The June 9-13 stretch of racing hatched by five promoters in January won’t be rescheduled. Lake Cumberland Speedway in Burnside, Ky., hosting the fifth of five scheduled nights, plans to a June 13 racing program with details to be announced.
Tuesday-Friday events were cancelled at Corbin’s Thunder Mountain Speedway, Junction City’s Ponderosa Speedway, Mount Vernon’s Rockcastle Speedway and Richmond Raceway.
Kentucky Speedweek was set for six divisions with more than $175,000 in purses and a $10,000 points fund for Super Late Models.
