Saturday Night Leg of Off-Road Baja Style Truck Racing Not Affected

ROSSBURG, OH (May 10) – Rain and a developing storm system to the southwest that moved into the region early Friday afternoon (May 10) have brought a halt to the Preliminary Night of the Traxxas TORC (The Off Road Challenge) Championship Series event at Eldora Speedway.

The cancellation has not affected Saturday’s program, which will feature four classes of off road truck racing on a specially built baja-style course on Eldora’s high-banked .500-mile clay oval.  Practice is slated for 3 p.m. on Saturday; followed by an autograph session at 6:15 p.m.  The first race, incorporating double jumps and the table-top jump, will take the green flag at 7:30 p.m.

Patrons with Friday night tickets will be able to use them for the Saturday show.

Complete event and ticket purchase information for Saturday’s Traxxas TORC event, along with the other exciting race events on the 2013 Eldora calendar, is available on the track’s website www.EldoraSpeedway.com.
