Mother Nature Moves NELMA to Sun. Oct. 25

With bad weather imminent, NELMA, in coordination with Sundance Vacations Speedway, has decided to postpone their Saturday event and use their rain date of Sunday, Oct. 25. In addition, NELMA Night at Damon’s in Hazleton, Pa. has been cancelled, but racers and fans are to welcome to come at the scheduled 5PM-9PM time tonight, Fri. Oct. 23, to mingle. The weatherman is predicting a beautiful day for Sunday, which will make the experience for NELMA fans and racers ever more enjoyable. The Hazleton Rat Rod Festival and Automotive Swap Meet will also carry over to Sunday, still running from 10AM-2PM.

“It was a difficult decision, but it was the right one,” said NELMA promoter, J.A. Ackley. “The whole premise behind our show is to save racers and fans money, and there’s no reason for us to drag them out on a rainy day. Our supporters deserve the best, and we’ll give them that on Sunday, Oct. 25.”

Despite the weather situation, the best late model, Legends car, and street stock racers are coming from all corners of the Northeast to NELMA, the premier stock car racing event now to be held on Sun., Oct. 25 at Sundance Vacations Speedway in St. Johns, Pa. And, for a grandstand admission of only $10 (kids 10 and under are free), you’ll enjoy three divisions with fierce competition from all corners of the Eastern Seaboard – the NELMA Late Model Challenge, WPW Equipment Rental Legends Car Fall Classic, and the NELMA Street Stock Fender Fury – along with the preceding inaugural Hazleton Rat Rod Festival and Automotive Swap Meet (10AM-2PM) – which is making Sunday, October 25 at Sundance Vacations Speedway in St. Johns, Pa. a worthy mid-Autumn venture. For competitors, pits open at 10 AM, with practice beginning at 12 noon. For NELMA fans, grandstands will open at 12 noon.
