July 23-24 MCR race at Onawa IA

Yes I'm curious to know why this decision was reached... Is it a safety issue? With the length of shutdown area? I have yet to attend a race in Onawa so I have no knowledge of the facility. I for one especially with the stick car really prefer 1/4 mile and was looking forward to racing this event.

John , JR -Safety was our main reason for having to make this change. For various reasons the guard rail has not been completed or couldn't be completed for our race. I would hope everyone will understand our need to make that change and still attend the race. Thanks

Johnny, I couldn't imagine getting your car all the way to 4th gear, and
then having to play the finish line. I would have trouble with a slow
powerglide car, LOL.

Just a heads up --- Onawa has plenty of PJ1 traction compound for our upcoming race !!!
