RAIN HALTS RIVERHEAD RACEWAY SUNDAY ACTION.

The final weekend of July was to be a doubleheader at Riverhead Raceway, led by the Advance Auto Parts Night at the Races Saturday night followed the make-up of the June 7th program Sunday afternoon. However, mother nature had other ideas with a weather system moving over Long Island late Saturday into Sunday forcing track management to postpone Sunday action.
"Let's hope third time is a charm for the June 7th program" track GM John Ellwood quipped late Saturday. "We'll now attempt to utilize our August 10th rain date for the now twice rained out June 7th program" he announced.
The NASCAR Modifieds will headline the Sunday matinee August 10th, running a 50-lap feature. Complementing the open wheel warriors are the Eagle Chevrolet Modifieds, Blunderbusts, INEX Legend Race Cars, INEX Bandoleros and a 4/6-Cylinder Gut & Go Enduro.
Pit gates will open at 10:00 AM, rotating practice take to the track at 11:00AM. General admission gates open at 12 noon, qualifying is set for 1:15 PM, followed by opening ceremonies at 2:15 PM. Adults are $30, kids 6-12 $20, 5 & under free.
