Ponderosa Speedway’s Fan Appreciation Night Cancelled Due to Wet and Cooler Weather

Junction City, KY (October 20, 2016)- Ponderosa Speedway track promoter Jamie Stumph and co-owner Larry Redenivs have unfortunately had to cancel the track’s Fan Appreciation Night events scheduled for Friday October 21 due to the wet conditions from rain on Thursday and more rains forecasted for overnight along with the colder temperatures predicted for the evening on Friday October 21 as well.

“I don’t like to cancel an event this early, but with the rain that we have already received and the forecast for more overnight (on Thursday) and predicted cooler temperatures expected on Friday after this cold front passes through our area, we felt it to be in the best interest of our racers and race fans to cancel this event”, stated track promoter Jamie Stumph. “We hope everyone will make plans to join us for the Junebug and Fall Classic events at the track on Friday November 4 and Saturday November 5, as we are expecting a great turnout of race teams for those events”, added Stumph.

The next events on the schedule at Ponderosa Speedway will conclude the track’s 2016 racing season on Friday November 4 with the 16th Annual Hugh “Junebug” Rowland Memorial and on Saturday November 5 with the 26th Annual Fall Classic.

The 16th Annual Hugh “Junebug” Rowland Memorial event on Friday November 4 will feature Super Late Models racing for $3,000 to win, along with a full program of racing activities for the track’s Pro Late Model ($1,000 to win), Modified ($800 to win), KDRA Super Stock ($750 to win), Stock Four Cylinder ($400 to win), and Mini-Cup/Cyclone ($100 to win) divisions.

The 26th Annual Fall Classic event on Saturday November 5 will feature the Southern Nationals Bonus Series sanctioned Super Late Models in action for $10,000 to win, along Pro Late Models and Modifieds each racing for $1,200 to win, along with the American Dirt Allstars sanctioned KDRA Super Stocks in action in the 2nd Annual Bobby Carrier, Sr. Memorial event, paying $1,200 to win.
