D9 Team Finals Postponed, Summit Super Series Race Contested During D1 Summit Team Finals Saturday October 3rd.

Wednesday, 23 September 2015

Due to pending severe weather the IHRA D9 Raiders Summit Team Finals event will be postponed.   A rescheduled date is currently being determined and will be posted as soon as possible. 

With the upcoming Summit Super Series World Championships in Memphis just a few weeks away, the D9 Raiders Summit Super Series runoffs will have to be contested during the D1 Patriots Summit Team Finals event at Piedmont Dragway on Saturday October 3rd.  The two Summit Super Series runoff events will be run separately as originally planned.  All D9 Raider Summit Super Series contestants will be allowed to compete in the gamblers races during the D1 Summit Team Finals event as a courtesy for the inconvenience.

“If there was any chance we could complete the race in a safe and time conscious manner this weekend, we’d be willing to fight through a little rain,” said Division Director Josh Peake. “Unfortunately the outlook calls for over three inches of accumulation and no real windows of opportunity to make this weekend possible.  What we don’t want to have happen is everyone sits in the cold rain all weekend and we can’t even get round one of the main event in and that is what it looks like right now.”

D9 Raider Summit Super Series representatives will also be welcome to return to the rescheduled date for the D9 Raider Summit Team Finals event to compete with their team.
