Due to heavy rain showers throughout the region, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series’ Toyota of Knoxville 75 at Tazewell Speedway has been postponed. The $10,000 to win event has been rescheduled for Friday, August 21st.
Officials of the Tazewell Speedway and the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series made the decision to postpone the event after a heavy band of showers began falling shortly after 6:00pm at the speedway. The rescheduling of the event will make it possible for one driver to win $30,000 over the course of three days.
For the first time ever, the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series will sanction The Scorcher at Volunteer Speedway in Bulls Gap, TN on Wednesday, August 19th and Thursday, August 20th. Each night of The Scorcher will be a separate racing program paying $10,000 to win. More information about the sanctioning of The Scorcher and the “Toyota of Knoxville 60” will be announced at a later date.
