Weather Pushes Rollie Beale Classic To Sunday

TOLEDO, Ohio – Poor weather conditions have led to the postponement of Saturday’s Hemelgarn Racing/Super Fitness Rollie Beale Classic at Toledo Speedway.

The event will now be held Sunday afternoon, April 28.

The time schedule will be altered for Sunday’s show, taking into account the time to dry the track surface. Temperatures are expected to be in the mid 30’s Sunday morning, but the sun is expected to appear, with temps rising to the 50’s by early afternoon.

The pit gates will open at 9 a.m. The front gates and ticket office open at Noon, with practice to start at that time, pending track conditions.  Time trials will go at 1:15 p.m., followed by show time at 2 p.m.

“The wet forecast for Saturday, and, having a Sunday rain date, made this early announcement the best decision in the interest of both the race teams and fans,” noted Ron Drager, promoter of Toledo Speedway.  “We are very excited about the entry lists for this new format for our one and only open wheel event in 2019, and we think Sunday’s weather gives us the best opportunity to run this show.”
