2018 Polish Mountain CANCELLED

Post by DaveM »

Hi,

Polish Mountain Hillclimb Update

There has been a lot of rain recently in Flintstone Maryland, and there may be more coming. This has caused concern about the field used for the paddock. The field was checked out earlier today, and in the view of National Road Autosport the field should be usable this coming weekend with some modifications. These may include not using all three entrances to the field from Gilpen Road, not allowing RV and tow vehicle parking in the spaces nearest Gilpen Road and having a new path for race vehicles into and out of the paddock (among other modifications). If conditions worsen, other options may be implemented.

For those coming to the event, please be patient and cooperative with the event officials as we try to make the best of the situation.

Cheers

Dave M

Hi,

A decision has been made to cancel the Polish Mountain Hillclimb scheduled this coming weekend. Flintstone MD has received the highest recorded rainfall recently, including 1.5 inches yesterday. More is expected every day through Sunday. The field for the paddock will not support RV and Tow vehicle parking, much less race vehicle traffic. There is no rescheduling anticipated for this year.

Registered drivers will be notified through MyAutoEvents and other forums.

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!

Regrets
