GNCC Travel Alert This Weekend's Unadilla GNCC Running as Scheduled


Alternate driving routes are necessary from the south




New Berlin, Ny. (September 8, 2011) - Due to severe
inclement weather in eastern Pennsylvania and New York, it may be
necessary for GNCC racers and fans to alter driving routes from the east
and south. Flooding situations have occurred in the New Berlin area,
closing roads south of Unadilla Valley Sports Complex; however, the
situation is expected to peak at approximately 6:00 pm, at which time
more information will be made available concerning alternate routes.
Until then, the best way to access the track is to approach from the
north and west at Syracuse, along I-90, then south on Route 8.
Travelers should avoid approaching from the east or south/east.



The Unadilla GNCC will run as scheduled this weekend, unless further
announcements are made. Alternate travel routes will be posted as we
gather more information on the weather conditions.



Fortunately, the racetrack and parking areas have not been
jeopardized by the wet weather. "The GNCC crew has been working hard
all morning to get everything set up for this weekend's event. In fact,
the track should be in great shape after the rain we've gotten here this
week!" said Jill Robinson, owner of Unadilla Valley Sports Complex.



ATVs will compete throughout the day on Saturday, September 10, with
50cc youth classes beginning at 2 p.m., and dirt bikes will race all day
Sunday, September 11.



Spectator passes run $15 for the full weekend, with pro pit access
and pro autographs at no additional charge. On both Saturday and Sunday,
youth riders race at 8 a.m., beginner riders race at 10 a.m., and the
top amateurs and the pros race at 1 p.m.
