REST OF WEEK A WASH FOR USMTS WEBSTER CITY, Iowa (June 11) – Regional weather woes have forced USMTS officials to scrap the remaining events for this week. As if devastating tornados two weeks ago weren't enough, widespread flooding in the Northeast Iowa area has forced the closure of dozens of roadways and many people are preparing for more forecasted rain. The event slated for Wednesday, June 11, at the Highway 3 Raceway in Allison, Iowa, was canceled earlier this week, and today USMTS officials were forced to pull the plug on the two remaining races for this week. The event on Thursday, June 12, at the Fayette County Speedway in West Union, Iowa, has been postponed to a date to be determined. This Friday's race at the Tri-Oval Speedway in Fountain City, Wis., has been postponed to Friday, Aug. 15, and will now be a part of the Casey's General Stores Hunt for the O'Reilly USMTS National Championship. The O’Reilly USMTS National Tour will return to action on Monday, June 16, for NASCAR Night presented by Karl Chevrolet at the Iowa State Fair Speedway in Des Moines, Iowa. The USMTS is celebrating its 10th Anniversary Season in 2008 with many special promotions to show thanks to the fans, drivers, team members, families and sponsors who have helped make the USMTS the premier dirt modified series in the nation.
