Wet Grounds Force Postponement of Spirit Speedway's Practice

Bridgeport, NJ – Bridgeport Speedway/Spirit Auto Center Speedway’s open practice for this weekend has been postponed due to the residuals left behind from this week’s Nor’easter ‘Toby’. “We were all set to start the season off with a great practice and then next week’s opener,” offered track owner Brian Ramey. “After everything just dried out last week, this storm put us back where we were. However, all next week looks pretty dry so we should be good for the Doug Hoffman Memorial.”

With this weekend’s change of plans, the schedule for next weekend has been slightly altered. Friday’s 358 small block program has been cancelled in order to host a more detailed practice for all of 5/8 mile race teams. The first scheduled D.A.’s Auto Body Rookie race will now be held the following week on Saturday, April 7. Spirit Auto Center’s ¼ mile first practice will now take place on Saturday, April 7, which was already on the schedule for that day. “It’s not ideal to shift things around so early in the season but, we truly feel having a safe, sound and solid practice before our first race, is important to for all the racers and staff involved at the speedway,” assessed Ramey.
