For Immediate Release
PERRIS AUTO SPEEDWAY POSTPONES USAC RACE TO SUNDAY!
(FEBRUARY 26, 2010, PERRIS, CA) Due to the incoming heavy storm that is slated to hit Southern California late Friday and into Saturday, Perris Auto Speedway, promoter Don Kazarian announced that the Sokola Shootout, featuring the Amsoil USAC National & CRA Sprint Cars and the USAC National & Western Midgets, has been postponed until Sunday, February 28th. Spectator gates will open at 1:00 PM. Qualifying will start at 3:00 PM with the first race at 5:45.
Due to the amount of rain expected and the mud it will make in the pits, the pit area will be located outside of turn one on the pavement (same place they were a few years back when heavy rains hit the night before the Oval Nationals). The pit gate entrance will be gate B, off Lake Perris Drive. The pit booth will be by the main large brown arches (the main entrance to the Southern California Fair).
Advance tickets are available 24 hours a day by calling 1-800-595-4849. They can also be ordered on the Internet at tix.com or perrisautospeedway.com.
You can keep up with all of the latest news from Perris Auto Speedway on Twitter at: http://twitter.com/perrisautospdwy.
For more information call The PAS at: (951) 940-0134.
Perris Auto Speedway is located on the Lake Perris Fairgrounds (home of October's Southern California Fair), approximately one hour east of Los Angeles and one hour North of San Diego. To get to the track, take the 215 freeway, exit on the Ramona Expressway and go three miles east to the fairgrounds.
Video and DVD productions of all racing events at Perris Auto Speedway are available from Jeff Kristensen's Raceway Video. For more information on these productions you can call: (818) 618-9764 or visit the web site at: racewayvideo.com.

The area is calling for 60% tonight, 80% chance of rain Sat and 0% on Sun. Weather won't be the problem but the puddles will be. Whoever has the H.P. and the sack to keep her gassed up on the cushion will win the main's .

It's a very good idea to postpone it early. There was almost zero chance of getting the racing in on Saturday.
The Perris release says that the spectator gates open at 1 p.m., but USAC's announcement says that "gates will open on Sunday at 10 a.m." Which one is accurate? (Or is USAC talking about pit gates?)

Since it is a combined race, they usually go with National rules with the invert of six.

Since the PAS is postponed till Sunday we can all watch Danica Patrick run at Vegas on TV Saturday and listen to Darrell, Darrell and his brother Darrell talk to her on the radio about if she's comfortable in her race car. Or not.
Everything you know is wrong.

Darn, rescheduling for night instead of running during the day. I would have thought it better for both fans (work the next day) and drivers (tow home without another night on the road) to get it done during the day! Anyone have a feel if it will be on the USACracing site?

Scott say's the spectator gates will open at 1:00, what time do they usually open? Are they splitting it down the middle by starting early?
Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.

That's the same time schedule they were set to run on Sunday. I suspect (although Scott would know for sure) that they want to have as much track prep time as possible in case it's raining late into the day or evening on Saturday.
