Oswego, NY It was announced this morning by ISMA president Howie Lane that
the proverbial "plug has been pulled" on the 2004 season opener
at Star Speedway once again. "Due to circumstances beyond our control
and that of Star owner Bob Webber we do not believe that the May 1 ISMA
race will be able to take place," said Lane. "Bob is still having
some problems up there and we have decided not to wait it out because of
the need to get the word out to fans and competitors across the Northeast
and Canada. The May 2 event at Seekonk will again this year be the opener
for the Lucas Oil-Helping Hands America Super Series."  Lane also did
not rule out a possible added date at the Epping oval later in the season
when things come together at the famed quarter-mile New Hampshire track.

In the meantime, Seekonk Speedway has indicated that all the ISMA
supermodified competitors are invited to a full practice day at that
Massachusetts oval on Saturday, May 1 from 10 am on. "We hope that as
many ISMA car owners and drivers will come Saturday as possible as this
will allow us to get some tech and other things done prior to the Sunday
racing," Lane commented further. "We are also working on a
post-practice get-together for all members in attendance at Seekonk
Saturday with some pizzas and beverages. That's in the planning stages
right now."
