Toledo Speedway

Toledo, Ohio—July 12, 2012:  In a mutual decision among both the Buckeye 305 Sprint Car tour and Toledo Speedway, the Friday, August 10 show has been cancelled at the Glass City oval.  The group has experienced short fields for several events this season and the decision has been made to cancel the race at Toledo.

“We have been in constant communication with the Buckeye 305 Sprint Series for several weeks regarding the Toledo race,” said Scott Schultz, General Manager of Toledo.  “The group has had short fields for several of their races and it was agreed that it was in the best interest of the Series and Toledo Speedway and its fans to cancel this event.”

“With that said, we have confidence in the group and we will begin discussions this fall regarding booking dates for the 2013 season at both Toledo and Flat Rock Speedways,” added Schultz.  “We will continue to work with the series.”

With the cancellation, Toledo track management will make a schedule adjustment.  The Figure 8 Train Race, originally set for the August 3 date, will now move to Friday, August 10.

The August 3 show will feature, as scheduled, the ARCA ACME Dismantling Sportsman, the ARCA 4 Cylinders, Parts Galore Figure 8’s and the Michigan Legends Cars.  The evening of racing will be sponsored by Jeff’s Collision of Toledo.

Friday, August 10, Toledo Speedway’s race card has the Sportsman, Street Stocks and the Figure 8 Train race on the schedule.  The track will also host Armed Forces Appreciation Night on the 10^th, with all active and retired military admitted FREE as guests of the speedway (with military ID).

Friday night racing continues at Toledo through August 31.  The track phone number is 419-727-1100.  Log onto www.toledospeedway.com for further information.  Like us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/toledoflatrock or follow us on Twitter @toledospeedway.
