Racing is done for the evening. Racing will resume at 9:00 am tomorrow. The rain-delayed spring race will pick up in the morning and continue to completion. There will then be one time run for all classes for the October race. After that, the fall race will be run until it is finished.

After one round of everything was finished Comp was in round three and they had another crash - can't tell who but after about twenty minutes they announced that racing was concluded for the day without giving any reasons whatsoever .They will pick it up where they left off at 9am tomorrow ..........more when I know ...........

Almost forgot -- took this picture just before they pulled the plug tonight ........kind of spooky .

Here's the skinny on today -- track prep is underway and SuperStreet has been called for a 9am start with Stock to follow .Partly cloudy skies with a slight chance of rain -- 63 degrees with a whopping 84 % humidity that should burn off if the Sun shows its face - that coupled with a barometer of 29.73 ends up with a final DA of just over eleven hundred feet .This day could go either way and we're hoping for the best as the schedule is packed for today .Later ............
