IHRA Canadian Nationals Washed Out

TORONTO, Ontario (July 22, 2006) -- The weather front that washed out Friday's IHRA Canadian Nationals professional qualifying sessions at Toronto Motorsports Park refused to cooperate for Saturday's scheduled racing as well. After hours of steady downpour in Cayuga, IHRA decided to pull the plug on the weekend's event. The IHRA Canadian Nationals have been rescheduled for the weekend of September 23-24.

"It's unfortunate, but these are the realities you have to face when you hold outdoor events. Mother Nature does not always cooperate," IHRA President Aaron Polburn said. "We looked at the weather report for the rest of the day today and tomorrow and decided things weren't going to work out. We'll come back in September and have a great event."

All spectator tickets purchased for this weekend will be valid for the rescheduled event in September. Crew passes and car and driver passes purchased for the IHRA Canadian Nationals will also be honored in September. Though some sportsman classes ran qualifying sessions Friday, IHRA will start the event over in September with new entries welcome. In addition, racers who wish to drop their rigs off in Toronto on their way back from the Epping, New Hampshire, event September 8-10 will be welcome to do so.

For competitors not able to return for the rescheduled event, car-and-driver and crew passes may be transferred to another eMax Drag Racing Series race this season. Please contact IHRA at (419) 663-6666 for more information.

The next event on the 2006 eMax Drag Racing Series is the Torco Race Fuels Northern Nationals, August 4-6, at U.S. 131 Motorsports Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
