Fisher would not elaborate on any details concerning the investigation into the three main divisions at SSP, but said he would review all of the information to make the results officials and determine if there would be any changes to any of the finishing orders. The results that were made official were the Classic Cars, Mini Vans and the XSC Rookie Rumble with Joe Snodgrass, Bill Wise Jr. and Curtis Shue winning in their respective divisions.
Action returns to the Susquehanna Speedway Park on Thursday with the Eichelberger’s U-Pull It Super Show featuring the 600cc Micro Sprint Speedweek, two Legends Cars features (one a continuation of a postponed race from June), and the Tobias SpeedSTRs.
