THREATENING SHOWERS FORCE CANCELLATION OF "ROBBIE STANLEY CLASSIC" AT
LAWRENCEBURG
LAWRENCEBURG, Ind. - A forecast for severe thunderstorms in the
Lawrenceburg, Ind. area this evening has forced the cancellation of round
six of "Indiana Sprint Week" - the "Robbie Stanley Classic" - for the USAC
National Sprint Car Series at Lawrenceburg Speedway.
Precipitation was moving slowly across the Hoosier state toward the
southeastern portion of the state throughout the afternoon, and the radar
showed heavy showers to move into Lawrenceburg early evening.
Jon Stanbrough has won three of the first five rounds of "Indiana Sprint
Week" thus far, and will lead competitors Friday to the now six-race series
at the Terre Haute Action Track. Stanbrough, looking to become the first
Hoosier in five years to win the "Indiana Sprint Week" title, owns a
50-point advantage over defending National Sprint Car Series champion Levi
Jones heading into Friday's event.
