Glasgow, KY-August 12, 2011- Officials with the American Modified Series and Lawrenceburg Speedway have agreed to drop the sanction of the American Modified Series for the Monster Mod 40 event that is scheduled for Saturday August 13.
Due to a conflict of interest over the eligibility of a particular racer to compete at this event, series officials and track officials could not come to an agreement on this racer’s eligibility to compete, so both the series and track felt it would be in everyone’s best interest for the American Modified Series not to sanction this event. The Monster Mod 40 event will still take place on August 13 and the American Modified Series wishes Lawrenceburg Speedway the best of luck with the event, but the American Modified Series will not sanction the event.
The next scheduled event on the American Modified Series tour will now take place on Friday night August 26 as the open wheel warriors of the American Modified Series bring their brand of UMP DirtCar Modified action to the high banks of the bad fast Tazewell Speedway in Tazewell, TN for the richest to win event of the season for tour, with the winner taking home a top prize of $3,000.
The American Modified Series presents UMP Modified sanctioned dirt track sports entertainment at racing venues throughout Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, and Tennessee. For more information concerning the American Modified Series, call series race director Chad Yantz at (606) 510-4836 or via the internet by visiting the series website at www.americanmodifiedseries.com.
