OVID - Owosso Speedway officials were forced to cancel last Saturday's racing card due to persistent rains that had the potential to turn to thunderstorms later on.
The pits were packed with cars from other local tracks that had canceled earlier in the day, and Owosso Speedway officials said they waited as long as possible to call the show.
On tap for this Saturday night at Owosso Speeday is a tribute night to the women who make racing possible. It is also Hawaiian Luau night. Fans who wear a Hawaiian shirt to the Speedway will get a dollar off their general admission ticket.
On the track will be the Affordable Tire & Service Center Late Models, Fast Track Promotion Modifieds, Advance Integrated Services Street Stocks, Affordable Tire & Service Center Pure Stocks and Owosso Speedway Mini-Stocks.
The next week will be Kids Bike Night, featuring bike racing for the children. Also on the card will be a full-show of Affordable Tire & Service Center Late Models, Fast Track Promotion Modifieds, Advance Integrated Services Street Stocks, and Affordable Tire & Service Center Pure Stocks.
Gates open at noon, qualifying is at 5:30 p.m. and racing begins at 7 p.m. every Saturday night at Owosso Speedway.
