Rain-Saturated Grounds Force Officials to Cancel Macon Speedway’s DIRTcar Summer Nationals and DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals Events

MACON, Ill. - July 9, 2015 - A rainy week in downstate Illinois has led to saturated grounds at Macon Speedway, forcing track and series officials to cancel tonight's DIRTcar Summer Nationals and DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals events.

Two nights now remain for the DIRTcar Summer Nationals tour -- Farmer City (Ill.) Speedway on Friday and Oakshade Raceway in Wauseon, Ohio, on Saturday.

In addition to Farmer City and Oakshade, the DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals includes two $2,000-to-win events, July 24-25, at Fairbury American Legion Speedway during the World of Outlaws Late Model Series' Prairie Dirt Classic weekend.

Bobby Pierce is the DIRTcar Summer Nationals championship leader, with a 40-point advantage over Billy Moyer Jr., while Mike Harrison and his seven victories on the DIRTcar Summit Racing Equipment Modified Nationals tour have a stranglehold on that series' championship.
