WEATHER
FORCES NASCAR WHELEN MODIFIED TOUR
AT STAFFORD POSTPONEMENT
TSI
Harley-Davidson 125 Rescheduled To May 30 |
|
Severe
weather forced the postponement of the NASCAR Whelen
Modified Tour’s TSI Harley-Davidson 125 Friday at
Safford Motor Speedway to Friday, May 30.
Despite avoiding precipitation throughout the day,
the weather system ultimately brought strong
thunderstorms into the region in the early evening
hours. The Whelen Modified Tour was able to get
practice and qualifying completed with Bobby Santos
winning the Coors Light Pole Award. It was his
fourth pole win in his last six tour starts at the
half-mile track.
The NASCAR Whelen All-American Series SK Modified
race was halted in progress when lightning was
approaching the facility. The schedule for the May
30 make-up date has not yet been finalized. It will
include a full Whelen All-American Series schedule
along with the 125-lap Modified Tour feature and
completion of the SK Modified contest.
Following the Stafford date, the NASCAR Whelen
Modified Tour will head to Waterford (Conn.)
Speedbowl on Saturday, June 21 for the Mr. Rooter
161. |
