The date became unavailable for 2009.

Thankfully the track worked with us and we were able to have four race events at Summit Point for the 2009 season with the additional day needed to have the twin sprint event at the July weekend.

Not sure I understand that Eric. I'm only seeing three weekends at Summit on the 2009 schedule.

i think the the 2nd set of sprints qualifies as a 4th day and therefore preserving the ability to have   track championships

that weekend is now some 50th anniversary scca event or something...

"became unavailable."  what does that mean?  (1) CCS passed on it.  (2) CCS dropped a ball somewhere.  (3) SP told CCS to drop dead that weekend.

which is it?

I'd say #3.  The Jefferson 500 (http://jefferson500.org/) is scheduled for that weekend.

If so, that really stinks. CCS has had that weekend as long as I can remember.  CCS should have had right of first refusal before the track gave it away to another org.  Lame.
