Story By: RACE OF CHAMPIONS – NORTH EAST, PA – Lake Erie Speedway and Race of Champions management are prepared to offer fans a “flex” schedule Race of Champions Weekend at Lake Erie Speedway including the VP Racing Fuels Race of Champions 250, “The Greatest Tradition in Modified racing”.
Utilizing a “flex” schedule means management may adjust the schedule in the event of any situation that may occur to ensure that the racing program will take place. This could mean the race starts earlier, later or qualifying programs are adjusted to accommodate an earlier start time for feature racing activity. Several other facilities and series commonly use “flex” scheduling to accommodate their customers. This includes moving “start times on feature events” to create an efficient program. By streaming the event without the set time of going “live” on linear television, it provides the option to do so and “keep the show moving”.
The “flex” schedule option may be used, when necessary and any adjustments to the schedule will be posted one-hour prior to events changing on all forms of track and series social media, along with Public Address announcements at the track. “Flex” scheduling may adjust the start time and order of events, in order, to give everyone an opportunity to accommodate everyone. If you are on the Lake Erie Speedway property, tune into 107.3 FM for any announcements that may need to be made.
At this point, everything remains on schedule as planned and announced, however, management of the Track and the Series wanted to let fans know there is an alternative plan, should adjustments become necessary to complete or advance either day of racing.
Sunday’s VP Racing Fuels Race of Champions 250 is set to roll off just after 4:00pm giving attendees plenty of time to return home following the race. On average the race takes just less than 2 hours to complete.
