No RA round, and possibly not a Barber either.



A return to Barber Motorsports Park, located in Birmingham, Ala., is still being negotiated and the June date and confirmation are to be determined.

One additional season-ending event is also under consideration and will be announced at a later date.

I think they'll work out a deal with Barber, trying to figure a date that isn't against college football...

Why no RA? or could that be the finale?

Couldn't agree on a sanction fee is my guess.

Barber replacement would be cool, but AMA not being at RA is gonna seem very strange. :)

Might have to pump up our June event if it stays this way.

I always prefer the WERA events over AMA anyway. Lot more racing for the money.

Thats true, but their sure were alot of big names at the GNF this past year. Kind of felt like an AMA event, but better. LOL
