Cordele, GA - March 27, 2009 - "The Cordele Clash for the Parts Plus
www.partsplus.com United Sprint Car Series winged outlaw sprint cars at
Watermelon Capital Speedway scheduled for Saturday, March 28th at 7:00pm has
postponed until Sunday afternoon at 2:00pm. Due to the prediction of
terrible weather on Saturday evening the decision was made to move the race
to Sunday afternoon when clear weather and sunny sky are predicted and
temperatures for a near perfect 70 degrees are predicted.



USCS Founder and President, Pete Walton said "We just thought this was the
best we could do with the weather we have been given. Sunday afternoon looks
like perfect racing weather. I'm excited because this is the first pavement
race of the year for our guys and we have the best field of drivers coming
to Cordele we have had at a USCS pavement event in three years. Lots of
talent with some experienced asphalt veterans down to some exciting young
drivers who are racing on the asphalt for the first time. It's going to be
both exciting and entertaining." concluded Walton.



A field of twenty winged sprint cars has pre-entered for the paved track
series season-opener. Additionally more teams have called and said they are
coming now, since the race was moved to Sunday afternoon. The action packed
event features the Parts Plus USCS winged Outlaw sprint cars testing the
limits of Georgia's fastest 3/8 mile paved oval at speeds expected to
approach 140 miles per hour for the exotic cars. In addition to the Parts
Plus USCS, the fans will be treated to a full program of racing action in
the Watermelon Capital Speedway Super Street, Pure Stock, Mini Stock and
Claimer divisions.



The racing program includes time trial qualifying, the Parts Plus Power Dash
for the top six sprint cars, sprint car heat races, a B-Main if necessary
and a 40-lap Parts Plus USCS sprint car A-Main. The four Watermelon Capital
Speedway classes will run a full racing program of qualifying heats and
feature races.



Pit gates will open at 10:00 am. The Spectator grandstands at Noon and
racing action is at 2:00 pm. Watermelon Capital Speedway is located ½ mile
west of Interstate 75 Exit 104 on Farmers Market Rd. in Cordele, GA. For
