BOSS At Twin Cities August 28 Postponed
In a joint agreement between BOSS promoter, Aaron Fry, and Twin Cities Raceway Park promoter, Tim Keithley, the Saturday, August 28th event has been postponed. This event was added to the original MPD Racing BOSS schedule to fill a date left open on short notice. It is much easier to fill a hole in a schedule on paper during the off season. However, in reality, it is best if the major players in this sport can work together and make moves for the benefit of all involved. This will allow more race teams and fans the opportunity to attend the USAC / Kokomo Smackdown the next three days. With the BOSS tour and the FAST tour booked up through October 16th, TCRP and tour officials are looking at booking the show on a different weekend in 2022. The next event at Twin Cities will be September 11th for the Family Chrysler Dodge Jeep Crate 50 that will also include the modifieds, super stocks, pure stocks, hornets and crown vics. The next BOSS event will be Saturday, September 18th at Fremont Speedway in Fremont, Ohio in a doubleheader with the FAST tour. We want to offer our sincere apologies for the delay in announcing this cancellation, but it was NOT a decision made in haste or taken lightly. We wish everyone a safe and fun weekend, wherever their travels may lead. Well that just blew any racing plans I had for the weekend.

Hmmmm Twin Cities and BOSS are major players? Ok. What about the other classes that just found themselves out a race? MMSA, TQs and mods.
We saw that Lincoln Park has invited MMSA to run with them on Saturday. That is where we will be. Probably cross TCRP off the list of tracks to support in the future.

I think it’s a great move and wish other tracks would consider not scheduling over top of large events such as ISW and the Smackdown.

I would 20 or so would race the smackdown and the other 50 have an off weekend. I know not many agree with my stance but I hate seeing big events being ran against. To each their own
