DIRTcar RoundUp
'Party in Pevely' Rescheduled for October 14-15-16, 2010
PEVELY, MO -- March 17, 2010 --
DIRTcar UMP Racing and I-55 Raceway officials announced today the
second edition of the DIRTcar UMP Roundup "Party In Pevely" will be
postponed to Oct. 14-15-16, 2010.
Soggy conditions would have made it difficult for an event of this
magnitude, one that features all eight divisions of DIRTcar UMP
Racing, to go off without a hitch. Therefore, officials decided it
was best to move the event originally scheduled for March 18-20 to
the fall, where the inaugural event lived up to its moniker, the
Party in Pevely.
"The Party in Pevely is a special event for us, and we want to make
sure that everything about it is done right," said World Racing
Group President Tom Deery. "With the conditions on the grounds this
weekend, it just wasn't going to be possible for the Party to be a
party. With an event like this, it's important for all aspects of
the show to function, and for everybody's sake with the existing
conditions we want to wait to make sure that can happen."
Competitors from across the region including 2009 DIRTcar Late Model
National Champion Jason Feger of Bloomington, Ill., I-55 Raceway
co-owner Ken Schrader of Fenton, Mo., as well as special guest and
NHRA Funny Car standout Cruz Pedregon were scheduled to compete for
the prized Belt Buckle Trophy and Silver Roundup Platter that have
become synonymous with the DIRTcar Roundup.
