Mother Nature’s Wrath Wins Friday’s Program Of Bridgeport’s Wild Card Weekend
Story By: KOLBY RAMEY / BRIDGEPORT SPEEDWAY – SWEDESBORO, NJ – Well, no one could have seen this coming. Well, at least not the white version of precipitation this time.
With an all day and evening Thursday snow and rainstorm hitting the entire Northeast, Bridgeport Speedway was left without any option other than to cancel the Friday November 16 racing program. For the fourth consecutive weekend, Bridgeport’s Friday night racing schedule has been wiped out due to rainy weather.
“As of now, Saturday’s Big Block, 602 Crate, and Outlaw Stock show is still on,” offered track manager Danny Serrano. “We will evaluate the track tomorrow and see just how much it can dry out. This has obviously been a season to forget weather wise. November has been no different than the entire summer and as far back as to opening night practice way back in March. We just don’t have the words to describe it anymore,” Serrano added.
Saturday’s show will be the final hand of the 2018 811 Dig Safe Poker Series at the speedway. Pit gates will open at 1:30 while grandstand gates will open at 2:30 and the first green flag waving at 5pm.
