TOLEDO, OH (4-12-18)—Officials from ARCA, Toledo Speedway and the ARCA/ CRA Super Series Powered by JEGS have postponed this weekend’s scheduled racing events at Toledo Speedway due to a weather front containing high winds and lightning and thunder with precipitation forecasts of 100% for both the scheduled race date of Saturday April 14 and the weather date of Sunday April 15.

The Cometic Gasket 200 presented by PNC Bank, featuring the ARCA/CRA Super Series and the ARCA Outlaw Late Model Gold Cup Series has been rescheduled for Friday June 29. Racing on that date will now feature the April 14 rescheduled program plus the Miller Lite 50 for ARCA Aramark Sportsman cars and the ARCA Figure-8 division. The ARCA Factory Stock race for June 29 will be rescheduled.

Other major outdoor sporting events scheduled for the weekend, including spring college football games at the University of Michigan, University of Wisconsin and Iowa State postponed or cancelled due to the incoming weather front.
