OK I know my memory is not as good as it once was anyway what happened to the fall nationals not on 2015 schedule
 
If you are referring to the AARA Fall Nationals, they don't want to race against Tricity mod Mania.. They can't race in October as construction set to begin on Herky-Horine Road on October 1st

I found this when I searched for information last month:
Sealed bids for the City of Pevely, Herky-Horine Improvements, STP-9900(650) (hereinafter “Project”) will be received by Pevely City Hall, 401 Main Street, Pevely, Missouri, 63070, until 2:00 p.m. local time, on Thursday, December 10, 2015, at which time the bids will be publicly opened and read aloud. The Scope of Work includes street improvements to Herky-Horine Road within the City Pevely and provides for pavement preparation, pavement widening, asphalt overlay, storm sewer improvements, pavement striping, concrete driveways, concrete curb and retaining walls, street lighting, traffic control and other incidental items and work described in the Project Manual, or reasonably inferable therefrom. The City of Pevely, Missouri anticipates issuing notice to proceed in the spring of 2016.

Here is the latest that I found today:
The City of Pevely is needing to do some tweaking to the Herky-Horine Road project. The city was looking into doing some major upgrade to that stretch of roadway, but the bids that came back were higher than anticipated. Pevely City Administrator Dickie Brown says they are in the process of making changes. Some federal grant money was available to the city to help offset the costs. Brown says they need to get plans finalized soon to take advantage of that.
 
Although this was scheduled to originally begin Oct 1, 2015, as you can see by the post above, the city of Pevely is having issues coming up with the money to get the project underway.
 
So if the city is issuing notice to proceed spring 16, this will certainly interfere with access to the race track if construction begins.
 
The WoO LM on Oct 1st was removed because the UMP Fall Nationals at Eldora was announced on that date...

Look for a new WoO LM date at I-55 in the coming days.

Thanks for clearly that up. Will look forward to see if a new date happens or not.
