(Press Release from NASCAR Integrated Marketing Communications)
The Buzz Chew Chevrolet Cadillac 200 at Riverhead Raceway for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, originally scheduled for Saturday night, has been postponed to Sunday, May 21.
With the weather forecast calling for consistent rain Saturday, series officials made the call to move the fourth race of the 2023 season back one day.
The race will now start at 2:45 p.m. ET on Sunday, May 21. As originally programmed, FloRacing will show live coverage of the Buzz Chew Chevrolet Cadillac 200.
Preceding Sunday afternoon’s race will be a 45-minute practice session for the Mods starting at 11:15 a.m. ET, followed by two-lap, single-car qualifying at 1:30 p.m. ET.

Hmmm just wondering. Only 20 registered for the Stafford open tomorrow night That’s flirting with the lowest number they’ve had since the first year in 2018 with twenty cars. Sizzler hangover or first signs the tour mod schedule was too packed in the first place? With this delay does it encourage any teams to come to Stafford for the CBYD 81?
Good move, it will be nice at race time on Sunday.
No Hangover… Just People… Remember it’s the People… CREWS and Crew Chiefs all on ISLAND with Mods …can’t just run home grab other car and Race…The moving CIRCUS has moved to Riverhead along with all the People that make the CIRCUS run…Stafford will be fine … Races too close together… This will happen to many Races this year… When there is conflict or races packed together you can only spread the people so FAR…. Jobs and days off do matter to the working men and woman…
