Kokomo, Indiana (April 19, 2023) - The 2023 Kokomo Grand Prix, scheduled for Friday and Saturday night, April 21-22, has been canceled.
The cancellation comes due to forecasted cold weather that calls for temperatures in the high 30s and low 40s along with a high chance of precipitation during both nights of the event at Indiana’s Kokomo Speedway.
The early call was made in consideration of competitors and fans traveling long distances.
The Kokomo Grand Prix will not be rescheduled in 2023.
