Wet Weather Cancels Durrence Layne Late Model Race At Duck River

CARTERSVILLE, GA – For the second straight week, heavy rains have forced Duck River Raceway Park officials to cancel the Durrence Layne Chevrolet Dirt Late Model Series Winter Shootout race scheduled for this Saturday as a part of the Winter Fest event at the Lewisburg, TN clay oval. There is no suitable date available in the near future to reschedule the event.

Duck River Raceway Park Owner Bob Harris did tell Durrence Layne Racing officials that a race for the series and the 2019 Winter Fest would be scheduled for December. Harris also said the 2020 Winter Fest event would return to the track’s schedule next February.
