ATLANTA (Sept. 22, 2004) — Organizers have decided not to reschedule the PRO Hot Rod and Muscle Car Nationals at Atlanta Dragway after the event was cancelled Sept. 17-19 because of Hurricane Ivan.
ProMedia said it will complete its season at the Nitto Tires World Street Car Finals in Memphis, Tenn., in October. Since the race season only had seven races contested, the bonus points will be awarded based on five of seven races, the organizer said.
ProMedia said it considered many factors in its decision, including its schedule, the racetrack's schedule, the need for lead time to promote and plan the event and the effect on racers who would have to arrange vacation time on short notice.
