The 2007 Molecule F National Speed Series was scheduled to kick off in January with the opening SG hosted by the Far West division with a SG race at Squaw Valley on Fri. Jan. 19. However, due to insufficient snow coverage on the race hill and no prospect of significant change in the coming week as dry conditions persist in the Sierras this season, the Squaw SG is **CANCELLED**. [11-Jan-2007]
By agreement of Molecule F, the series sponsor, and the national masters committee, represented by chairman Ned Dolan, the cancelled Squaw SG will be replaced on the NSS schedule by the Super G event at Park City, Utah scheduled for Jan. 26 . This is part of a three race weekend named the "Loritz Cup" in honor of Gary Loritz a long time Masters racer and speed specialist who has been diagnosed with Lou Gehrig disease. Visit intermountainmasters.org for details and entry information. [12-Jan-2007]
