I've been told that the reason is simply lack of interest. Without enough people to sign up, the costs to rent the track cannot be covered. Hence the cancellation.
However, I suggest you directly contact Phillip or NorCal MINIs for their answers.
AMVIV will still go on. Keep checking http://www.aminivacationinvegas.com for details as news of events will be updated there.
