With the current forecast of rain Saturday night and Sunday at Watermelon Capital Speedway in Cordele, Georgia, track and race officials have decided to move all feature racing action for CRA SpeedFest 2018 to Saturday afternoon.
The asphalt Super Late Model and Pro Late Model events were originally slated for Sunday afternoon. The change allows for Sunday to be the scheduled rain date if the rain were to move ahead to Saturday.
“This is a great move by the race track,” said CRA Series Director Glenn Luckett. “The racers and fans can see that the track is committed to getting the race in this weekend, and by moving the features to Saturday, it gives them the flexibility to race Saturday or Sunday if needed. Everyone can move ahead with their planning knowing that there is a really high probability of racing this weekend, aided by the move to schedule Saturday feature racing.”
CRA SpeedFest 2018 will consist of a $10,000 to win 200 lap ARCA/CRA Super Series Super Late Model special non-points event and a $5000 to win 125 lap JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Pro Late Model special non-points event.
There are currently 29 cars entered for the ARCA/CRA Super Series Super Late Model event and 30 cars entered for the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Pro Late Model event.
