Richmond, KY(October 2, 2015) Richmond Raceway co-promoters Larry, Chad, and Sarah Yantz regretfully have cancelled the Beast of the East Clash that was scheduled at the 3/10 red clay oval known as “The Beast of the East” for Saturday October 3. With rain having fell most of the week and the forecast for more rain through the day and evening on Friday and with more rain forecasted for Saturday, the grounds at the track are completely soaked and with the forecast for no long-term break in the rains and unseasonably cool temperatures, the trio were left with no other option but to cancel the event.
The 2015 racing season is now complete at Richmond Raceway and track promoters Larry, Chad, and Sarah Yantz want to sincerely thank all the race teams and race fans for their support during their first season as promoters at the historic Madison County, KY race facility. There will be a press release issued in the coming weeks with details regarding the 2015 Richmond Raceway Championship Banquet as well. Track champions for the 2015 season at Richmond Raceway are as follows: Jason Barrett of Waco, KY in Barry Turner of Century 21 Advantage Realty Super Late Models, Chris Johnson of Winchester, KY in REVELution Race Cars Pro Late Models, Jeff Watson of Campbellsville, KY in Modifieds, Glen Hounshell, Jr. of Mount Vernon, KY in KDRA Super Stocks, Stacy Harrison of Keavy, KY in Four Cylinders, and Scott Crusenberry of Williamsburg, KY in Warlock Race Cars Mini-Cup/Cyclones.
Of note, for those race teams and race fans that have raincheck tickets and pit passes from the September 19 event that was rained out before the heat race events were completed, there will be three things that can be done with those tickets and/or pit passes and they are as follows: 1) track co-promoter Larry Yantz will be at Richmond Raceway on Saturday October 3 from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. and individuals can visit the track and get a refund on their ticket and/or pit pass (please write your name on the back of the ticket and/or pit pass); 2) Individuals can mail their ticket(s) and pit pass(es) back to Mr. Yantz at the following address: Larry Yantz-2905 KY Hwy. 328 E-Waynesburg, KY 40489 (please include a self-addressed stamped envelope, indicate who the refund check needs to be made out to, and write names on the back of the tickets and/or pit passes); 3) Individuals can hold on to their ticket(s) and/or pit pass(es) and use them at any event in the month of April during the 2016 racing season at Richmond Raceway.
