Rock Gault Memorial Rescheduled Make-Up Event Thursday September 2nd

The conclusion of the Rock Gault Memorial event including the $40,000 World of Outlaws Late Model Series event originally scheduled for Saturday March 27th that was postponed has been rescheduled for Thursday September 2nd.

There were several dates taken into consideration, but this seems to be the date that will work best for the World of Outlaws Late Model Series and Cherokee Speedway. Fans and drivers will be able to use their arm bands for this date or the last week of March 2022 for the 2nd Annual Rock Gault Memorial. The Speedway realizes that it is a Thursday night, but it will kick off a very big start of Labor Day weekend racing.

The World of Outlaws Late Model Series did not want to schedule on top of another series and Cherokee Speedway did not want to schedule on top of any other local series or tracks in the area. This is the reason that officials picked the original date at the end of March because there was nothing major going on that weekend. With the NASCAR race being at Darlington Speedway on Labor Day Sunday night there will be possibilities that the Speedway can pick up some of those drivers on an off night, as well as being able to pick up any driver from the other National Touring Late Model Series'. We wanted to get the word out to you as quickly as possible to give you these five months to be able to make plans if possible to join us for this $40,000 to win event.
