(Hartford, OH)…In the interest of safety for fans and teams, Saturday’s World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series event at Sharon Speedway was cancelled due to severe weather moving towards the eastern Ohio area. Series and track officials worked closely with Precision Weather Service and meteorologist Wayne Mahar to make the call. Severe weather did hit the Hartford, Ohio oval around 7:30 p.m. knocking out power at the facility. It marked the fourth weather cancellation in the first five weeks of action.
