McCOOL Junction, Neb. -- The highly-anticipated 8th Annual Nebraska Spring Thaw at the Junction Motor Speedway in McCool Junction, Neb., has been postponed for the weekend due to the frigid weather conditions.

The USMTS Casey’s General Stores National Tour powered by Swan Energy will return to the 3/8-mile speedplant on Friday and Saturday, June 3-4.

Up next for the USMTS road warriors will be the first two events in the Mo-Kan Region.

On Friday, March 11, the series will invade the Mid America Speedway in South Coffeyville, Okla., followed by the first of three engagements this season at the Humboldt Speedway in Humboldt, Kan., on Saturday, March 12.

Both events will pay $2,000 to win.
