I was looking forward to making my first trip up to "The Beaver" Buena Vista Raceway in Alta but mother nature wouldn't let it happen as she would dump 4.5 to 5 inches in Alta/Storm Lake Area forcing the cancellation of the Kyle Suter Memorial Stock Car Shootout.
They tried to pump water out of the infield and off the race track after it caused flooding but it was ultimately called off at 1pm.
“There just wasn’t enough time to get the infield pumped out and the racing surface ready for this evening,” explained IMCA Vice President of Operations Brett Root. “BVR will hold their Kyle Suter Memorial program at a later date. The decision to reschedule the Stock Car series date will be made this week.”
A $1,500 point fund will be paid regardless of whether or not the Alta date Is rescheduled.
Both the IMCA Sunoco Stock Cars and Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMods will run for $1,000 to win when the series travels to Marshalltown Speedway Tuesday, June 28. IMCA Sunoco Hobby Stocks run for $400 to win and Mach-1 Sport Compacts for $150. The grandstand opens at 5:30 p.m. and racing starts at 7 p.m.
Another $1,000 to win show for the Stocks is scheduled for Wednesday, June 29 at Independence Motor Speedway. That evening’s Deery Brothers Summer Series for IMCA Late Models totes a $5,004 top prize while Northern SportMods chase a $500 check. Indee opens the grandstand at 4 p.m. and starts racing at 7 p.m.
See you all at Motown, I think because Alta cancelled i should put my June Stats for Marshalltown together and post it on here!
