The NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour (NWMT) event scheduled for this weekend at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park has been postponed due to inclement weather in the forecast for Sunday. NASCAR and track officials made the decision to reschedule the race to Saturday, April 5, with the start time to be announced at a later date.
Weather Forces Schedule Change
Originally set to take place on Sunday, the event faced significant weather concerns, prompting NASCAR to act early to avoid unnecessary travel and ensure the best possible racing conditions. Forecasts indicated heavy rain and unfavorable conditions, making it impractical to hold the race as planned.
New Date: April 5
With the rescheduling, teams and fans now look ahead to Saturday, April 5, when the Whelen Modified Tour will return to the historic Connecticut short track. The event remains a key part of the 2024 NWMT schedule, and anticipation will only build with the extra wait.
Looking Ahead
Thompson Speedway, known for its rich Modified racing history, has long been a staple in the Whelen Modified Tour. With drivers and teams already preparing for the revised date, fans can expect an exciting show when the green flag finally drops.
