Reading rain-delayed again
Mohnton, Pa. (Sept. 16, 2006)- Persistent rain showers forced NHRA officials to reschedule this weekend's Toyo Tires NHRA Nationals at Maple Grove Raceway until the weekend in between the O'Reilly Fall Nationals in Dallas and the Torco Racing Fuels NHRA Nationals in Richmond, Va., on October 6-8. This is the fifth time in six years that the Maple Grove event has been postponed due to Mother Nature. Bob Vandergriff Jr. will bring his UPS Top Fuel dragster back to the Pennsylvania event rescheduled for Sept. 28-Oct. 1.
"We are disappointed that we aren't able to run this weekend," shared Vandergriff. "We really feel we have found some issues that have plagued us recently and we were looking forward to getting those behind us and getting the UPS dragster into competitive form. We will just have to wait until Ennis."
Vandergriff will return to Maple Grove the following weekend for the rain-delayed event.
