OVRP Dirt Oval
Report 7/11/09
By: John Schoebel
Cuddebackville, NY – After two weekends off, the OVRP Dirt Oval was back in action this
past Saturday until Mother Nature picked up right where she left off three
weeks ago.
As you may recall,
there has not been a complete night of racing since June 6th,
causing there to be make up races added onto the regular night of racing. This
past Saturday the track held the make up heats and features from June 20th
as well as a shortened regular show. Everyone got one round of practice for the
night. Next the make up heats and features were run and completed. Then it was
onto the regular night of racing which was shortened so the show would be
completed by the 11pm curfew.
Before the rains came, the track was
in excellent shape. The surface was dry and hard, with minimal dust. The rain came
before the features could be run. Denise tried waiting it out but the longer
everyone waited, the harder the rain came down. The race was called right
before dark and has been rescheduled for next weekend. This information was
pulled straight from www.ovrpdirtoval.com
“On Saturday July 18th, we will be running the rest of the show from
July 11th and then we will run 2 heats and a feature. There will only be 1
round of practice.
The slingshots will be completing
their makeup from Saturday June 13th. If any new slingshots show up, they will
be allowed to enter, but they will have to start in the rear of the field.
The slingshots will be completing
their makeup from July 11th on Saturday July 25th.”
There were 45 karts and 7 motorcycles for the make up features, but I did not get the number of entries that were in attendance for the regular show as they were not able to enter the make up race if they were not there last time.
