WEATHER ONCE
AGAIN FORCES NASCAR WHELEN MODIFIED TOUR POSTPONEMENT
AT STAFFORD
TSI
Harley-Davidson 125 Rescheduled For June 6 |
|
Inclement
weather once again spoiled the NASCAR Whelen
Modified Tour’s attempt to run the TSI
Harley-Davidson 125 at Stafford Motor Speedway.
Twice postponed, the race is now slated to run on
Friday, June 6.
The third race of the 2014 tour schedule was
originally to be contested on May 23, but rain
arrived at Stafford that night following practice
and qualifying, just prior to the race. In Friday’s
second attempt rain cut practice short, and with a
forecast for continued precipitation ahead, NASCAR
and Stafford reached a decision to postpone the
event one more week.
Bobby Santos captured the Coors Light Pole Award for
the race during qualifying on May 23. This evening
at Stafford his No. 44 Tinio Racing/ImperialCars.com
Chevrolet was once again the class of the field in
25 minutes of practice before the rain arrived.
This is a repeat scenario from 2013 with the same
event was twice postponed before it ran to
completion and Ryan Preece reached in Victory Lane
on June 14.
Following the Stafford date, the NASCAR Whelen
Modified Tour will head to Waterford (Conn.)
Speedbowl on Saturday, June 21 for the Mr. Rooter
161. |
