MOHNTON, Pa. -- "On behalf of the Stauffer family, the management team of Maple Grove Raceway would like to apologize to the fans and racers for what transpired this weekend," vice president/general manager Lex Dudas said Sunday.

"We are committed to fixing the problem."

The track ownership will be extending the concrete pad from 550 feet to the 1,000-foot mark of the track. The asphalt surface will be milled 2 inches and new asphalt will be installed for 700 feet to the quarter-mile mark and beyond.

This should prevent future occurrences of water seepage that caused the long delays during the course of the weekend and help to improve the performances at all future Maple Grove Raceway events.

"We greatly appreciate the many fans that showed their dedication to the NHRA and Maple Grove Raceway by waiting through the long delays," Dudas said.

"We hope you continue your patronage with us in the future."
