The USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Series event scheduled for October 17 at Kentucky Lake Motor Speedway has been cancelled and will not be rescheduled.
With the extension of the Interstate 69 project, the commonwealth of Kentucky has levied eminent domain against the track in Calvert City, Kentucky, which will be permanently shut down.
The 3/8 mile, high-banked dirt track was to host the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Cars for the very first time and was to mark the series’ first visit to the state of Kentucky since 1999.
Track owner Ronnie Jones, who purchased the facility in 2013, was excited about the USAC Sprint Cars’ first visit to his facility, but despite their best efforts, the event will not be held.
