NHRA Northwest Nationals Canceled Due to State and County Restrictions
The Flav-R-Pac NHRA Northwest Nationals, originally scheduled for July 31–August 2, outside of Seattle, has been canceled due to COVID-19 restrictions in Washington state and King County that would not allow fans to attend the event. For the event to proceed with fans in attendance, King County, where the track is located, would need to reach Phase 4 of Washington’s reopening plan. As of today, King County is still in Phase 2 and with the time required before moving into subsequent phases, it would be very unlikely, if not impossible, to arrive at Phase 4 in time for the rescheduled 2020 event. Event ticket holders will receive more information from Pacific Raceways via email soon and are encouraged to visit www.pacificraceways.com to learn about their options. The NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series schedule restarts in Indianapolis on July 11, with the E3 Spark Plugs NHRA Nationals and continues in Indianapolis on July 18, with the Lucas Oil NHRA Summernationals. The series then travels to the Dodge Mile-High NHRA Nationals, presented by Pennzoil, August 7–9, at Bandimere Speedway outside of Denver. The tour then heads to Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, California, for the season-ending Auto Club NHRA Finals, November 13–15.
