THOMPSON, CT. Three of Thompson Speedway’s NASCAR Whelen All-American Series divisions will face double features this coming Thursday night.

This amazing lineup is the result of the scheduled twin 30-lap features for the Sunoco Modifieds and the completion of last week’s program when the Lite Modified and the Xtra Mart Limited Sportsman features fell victim to Mother Nature.

Thompson, Conn. (May 19, 2013) – Inclement weather at Thompson International Speedway on Sunday, May 19, forced the postponement of the day’s racing events that were to include the Modified Racing Series (MRS). After completing qualifying for nearly all of the NASCAR Weekly Racing Series divisions and a single heat race of the three scheduled for the VMRS Modifieds, a persistent drizzle turned steadier; ending any attempts at feature racing.
The Modified Racing Series portion of the event has been cancelled. Details on the make-up for the Weekly Racing Series will be announced at a later date.
