Rain KO’s Seekonk Speedway Opening Day Program
Persistent rain showers and unseasonably cold temperatures forced the cancellation of Seekonk Speedway’s Opening Day program slated for Sunday afternoon, May 4.
Seekonk management and representatives of the Northeastern Midget Association are scheduled to meet to set a new date for the touring NEMA midget and NEMA Lites series’ visit. The 1/3-mile Bay State facility’s open practice session, which was scheduled to run from 11 to 5 on Saturday, also fell victim to wet weather.
Saturday night racing begins at the Bay State facility on May 10 at 6 PM for the weekly Pro Stock, Late Model, Sport Truck, and Street Stock divisions. General admission tickets for 2008 are priced at $12 for those 13 and older. All children 12 and under are admitted free. Pit admission is $20 for ARC Pit Membership Card holders and $30 for non-card holders. Senior citizen discounts are available on general admission tickets for Saturday night races. All guests 55 years of age and older will receive a $2 discount. Guests must present photo identification for proof of eligibility if requested.
