Hall of Fame postpones salute

Knoxville — Today’s winter ice storm in Knoxville, which is forecast to last until 6 a.m. tomorrow, has forced the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum to postpone Thursday night’s planned “Salute to Bob Trostle” reception until the next available date in the “Sprint Car 101” Third Thursday Series, which is February 18. Said curator Tom Schmeh, “It’s unfortunate that we had to do this, but we know that we had people coming from out-of-state to attend our special reception for Bob Trostle. It’s better to get the word out early than wait until the last minute when we are faced with this type of bad weather situation.”
