Inclement weather in the St. Louis,MO area forced officials of Tri-City Speedway in Pontoon Beach,IL and World of Outlaws Stacker 2® Late Model Series officials to cancel the $10,000 to win “Coldwell Banker/Gundaker – Miller Lite Nationals 50” Friday evening. It is unclear whether the event will be rescheduled.

Several inches of rain fell on the speedway grounds Thursday and early Friday morning and despite a herculean effort track officials were not able to get the ½ mile speedway into a safe, raceable condition resulting in the cancellation.

The World of Outlaws Stacker 2® Late Model Series will travel to I-55 Raceway in Pevely,MO Saturday, September 17th for the $10,000 to win “Pepsi Nationals 50” before heading to the Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield,MO Sunday, September 18th for the $12,000 to win “14th Annual Best Western Illinois Fall Nationals”.
