With heavy persistent rain in the LaFargeville, NY area, and more expected throughout the entire weekend, according to Precision Weather Service, Super DIRTcar Series, DIRTcar Northeast, and Can-Am Speedway officials have canceled Saturday’s portion of the Thunder in the Thousand Islands.
The decision comes after working closely with Meteorologist Wayne Mahar from Precision Weather Service and monitoring the local weather for the past 24 hours.
The Super DIRTcar Series portion of the event will not be made up. However, the DIRTcar Sportsman Series North Region event will now run during Can-Am’s 50th Golden Jubilee season opener on Friday, April 26.
Those who bought tickets for the event through MyRacePass will not be charged.
