Second Time
No Charm for Luxemburg Special!
By Joe Verdegan |
September 12, 2003;
Luxemburg, WI. - Just as it had in July, the McCoy Harley Davidson
Classic at the
Luxemburg Speedway once again fell victim to rain Friday night.
The Classic was to offer the highest paying stock car purse ever at the Kewaunee County
Fairgrounds. Circumstances this time were nearly identical to the situation that
plagued the event for its first scheduled date, July 30th, as the opener to the Kewaunee
County Fair. Teams were already arriving when light rain hit the track about 5:15.
15 minutes later, a steady downpour struck, ending any hope of saving the third
mile clay oval.
Due to the annual Heritage Days Festival occupying the Fairgrounds the weekend of
September 19-21, and weekend specials at other area tracks the following two weekends, the
Classic has been cancelled and the 2003 season declared officially completed.
Track management would like to thank all teams and fans for the tremendous support during
the season, and look forward to continued success in 2004. |
