Thompson Reschedules Annual Icebreaker

THOMPSON, Conn. – After conversations with all stakeholders, Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park has announced the new date for the 46th annual Liquid Death Icebreaker weekend.

The event is now tentatively set to take place May 15-16, including the headlining NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Death To Plastic 150.

Due to the current COVID-19 outbreak, the date is tentative, as the situation is fluid and changes are occurring across the motorsports industry daily. A full schedule for the event will be released once available.

The original date for the Liquid Death Icebreaker, April 3-5, was postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, but track officials were committed to finding the right date and releasing it to the public as quickly as possible.

“After working with all of the different parties involved, we feel this is the best weekend to run the Icebreaker and kick-off the Thompson racing season,” said Terry Eames, General Manager of Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park. “Just like the entire racing community, we are disappointed that we can’t start the race season as originally scheduled. However, we will continue to abide by our Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont’s Executive Orders and CDC suggestions during this time. We fully expect to begin the season with the Icebreaker, May 15-16, and look forward to seeing everyone back at the track soon.”
