Super Stocks rained out at Rice Lake; event likely to be rescheduled

The Fastlane Motorsports Northland Super Stock Series scheduled for last Thursday at the Rice Lake Speedway was rained out.

Three and a half inches of rain since June 2 plus more rain that fell in the Rice Lake area the morning of June 5 made the entire facility far too wet to hold a racing program. Track officials had held out hope that the weather might clear and that they might be able to get on the track but more rain, mist and drizzle kept that from happening, and rather than offer up to the drivers a track that might not meet their expectations, track officials along with Series Director Dennis McCauley chose to cancel the night’s racing.

This event will likely be rescheduled for a later date with the track owners and Fastlane officials working on a date that will be acceptable to the drivers, the track and also to the other tracks in this area that Fastlane works with. Expect an announcement on the exact date soon.

The Rice Lake Speedway’s next scheduled event is Saturday night. All five classes that race on a regular basis at the track will be in action and the Relay at the Races will be hosted.

Normally a part of the Firecracker race in July, the Relay at the Races has been given its own night this year to make it an even bigger and more successful event.

Race time will be at 6 p.m. To learn more information about this event and the Fastlane Series event, visit the speedway website at ricelakespeedway.net or the speedway Facebook page.
