JAMAICA, Va. — After much discussion and thought Virginia Motor Speedway management has made the decision to cancel racing activities for Saturday, May 4 due to the high probability of rain for the weekend.
“We have a lot of competitors and fans who travel an enormous amount of highway miles to attend our events,” said track owner Bill Sawyer. “We don’t want anyone to have the burden of making a long trip for nothing.”
The speedway will take the Mother’s Day weekend off and return to host the first of two mud bogs for the 2019 season on Saturday May 18 with the 10th annual Mud Mayhem presented by Atlantic Broadband, James River Equipment and WhosYourDriver.org.
