Va. Motor Speedway cancels April 24 races

Mud Mayhem still on for May 1

Virginia Motor Speedway (VMS) is canceling racing activities for Saturday, April 24, due to the high probability of rain for the weekend, VMS announced Friday.

“We have a lot of competitors and fans who travel an enormous amount of highway miles to attend our events,” said Owner Bill Sawyer. “We don’t want anyone to have the burden of making a long trip for nothing.”

The Jamaica speedway on U.S. 17 will return to host the first of two mud bogs for the 2021 season next Saturday, May 1, with the 12th annual Mud Mayhem presented by Atlantic Broadband, James River Equipment and WhosYourDriver.org. Eleven divisions of mud maniacs will be competing in the state-of-the-art mud bog facility known as The Pit.
