Lake Worth, Fl, August 26th, 2010 - For Immediate Release

Due to the severe weather forecast caused by Hurricane Danielle and Tropical storm Earl for the West Palm Beach / South Florida area, The National Sport Compact Racing Association officials have postponed Round 4 of the NSCRA South East Regional championship series at Palm Beach International Raceway that was scheduled for Saturday August 28th and Sunday August 29th.

This decision was made with much regret, but was based on the advice from the National Weather Service and South Florida meteorologists.

The NSCRA has been in contact with meteorologists throughout the week. The feedback given was that the worst of the weather will pass through Saturday and Sunday leaving it unrealistic for an event completion.

A strong line of thunderstorms with the potential of tropical force winds will be coming through the West Palm Beach area Saturday August 28th and Sunday August 29th.

Saturday’s forecast has scattered thunder storms with a 60% chance of rain

Sunday's forecast has scattered thunder storms with a 60% chance of rain.
With this information and passed experience the NSCRA feels it is best to postpone the event as of today in hopes of saving our Racers and fans from travel and expenses with the weather looking so uncertain.

NSCRA officials will release re-scheduled event date via press release on www.nscra.com no later than August 31.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and look forward to seeing everyone on the re-scheduled event date.

 

sucks you have to do it, but seems like the right decision! good call doing it early and not the morning of the event!

 

Much better than having people travel for nothing. Good job nscra!

 

Better safe than sorry

 

Tropical storm party at my house.....

 

Yeah good call guys.

 

I think that is real big of you guys to do that and save everyone's money.

 

sucks for us. we just got our hotel last night and no cancellations.
we had been trying hard to have everything running right for this. went last saturday, rained out, last night... rained out.

oh well no one to blame really

no wait, i blame damian for opening his big mouth last night

 

what the hell did i do?

 

Does not matter it's still your fault!

 

Always!!

 

Me too!

This means you get a lot of testing time

 

thanks you to the NSCRA in being proactive and postponing this race.

see you all at the reschedule date.

 

sucks it got cancelled ,,,,damien got scared cause i was coming to take his crown of the fastest in fl....just going to have to wait now

 

yep went to the track both days.. we were so exited to take home the true street title ..oh well and yes i agree its all damians fault

 

damn you Damian

 

Lol ceaser we got that whoop-whoop stick so be ready

 

Dont get too excited Mike, u still got Ryan and me to worry about ;-)

 

last night weather was great .....weather looks real good so far this morning real sunny out might go to pbir tonight.......but good call NSCRA cause florida weather is ceazy...just never know

 

yea i think we are running the carrot at the reschedule in true street.see you guy there

 

NSCRA can't win, it's friggin beautiful out today...i think the cancellation was premature although i hear that the finances couldn't handle another rain out.

 

Sucks it was cancelled early like that. I got a hotel for fri an sat night. Was at the track last night and it was nice and dry. A little cool too.

Anyways these were pics from my hotel room today at 12pm and at 7pm. Beautiful day to race.








Who knows though, it may rain like hell tommorow. But then again this is SoFla and you know that it rains every afternoon like clockwork no matter the month. It's nothing new. Oh well.

 

I do see where NSCRA guys are coming from, whether it rained in some parts of florida or not the chance was very high and tomorrows still another day...it could pour all day tomorrow. We were out at Countyline running today and into the night without seeing a drop. It just sucks that the organization can't handle another rain out so they had to be so cautious. While we all spend a lot of time, money and effort to make the event, they spend even more trying to give us a place to race so i'll have to go with their judgement this time around if it means they will be around next year and years to come. In the end, we'll be out there supporting regardless.

 

I was at Lakeland last night for the JDM UP and it pour most of the night and they had to reschedule the event for another day then at CFRC it was rained out as well.

 

papa kev with the wisdom.


That's like telling someone in Miami it rained in Georgia yesterday. Like I said, it's SoFla. It's going to rain everyday reguardless. I got a text that it was raining down in delray. While I was in palm beach 20mins away and it was clear as could be.

But Kevin said it best. So no hard feelings to the NSCRA. Well be here to race the next date
