Officials at Speedway 660 have decided to reschedule tonight’s Martins Home Heating Firecracker Sportsman 150 due to forecasted rain and showers throughout the day. The showers and light look like they will just drag out throughout the day into the evening and officials wanted to make a decision early to give the racing community a chance to get back their day today.
Next Saturday night fans can look to see the Martins “$3000 to Win” Firecracker Sportsman 150 as well as all other racing divisions including the AL Gullison Pro Stocks, RV World Street Stocks, 4 Cylinders and Hanwell Village Mart Bandoleros. Note the Martins Home Heating Sportsman division will be competing only in the 150 as there will be no sportsman points feature as previously scheduled.
The Enduro 200 scheduled for tomorrow at 2pm is still on schedule. Check www.speedway660.com Sunday morning for updates on the weather.
