Showers shorten Seymour show! By Dave Panske

June 17, 2001; Seymour, WI -  Despite light rain throughout the heats and heavier rain during the consy, mother nature, again, had the winning hand by throwing more rain Sunday night to wash out the four big feature events at the Seymour Tri Oval Raceway.

Photo Highlights

Jamie Schmidt (#42) won his first IMCA Modified heat of the season at Seymour Tri-Oval Raceway. Darren Otto (#27) won his first race of the season on Sunday Night when he captured the first Street Stock heat. Mike Franzke (#5) picked up his first checkered flag in two seasons Sunday night at Seymour winning an IMCA Stock Car heat race.

The club tried to wait out the rain and started to rework the track before a final shot closed the nights activities with 98 cars and an excellent crowd on hand. Because all of the qualifying events were in the books, the program was a complete show.

The track crews had a perfect race track waiting for the drivers after a long week of non-stop work to re-do the front straight after last weeks problems.

Attempts will be made to get a full program in next Sunday night.
