Rain cuts action short at Lee County Speedway

After the first set of heats came to an end, steady rain showers put an end to Friday night's race program at Lee County Speedway. The third and final IMCA Modified heat had just concluded when the rain started falling. After a 20 minute delay to wait out the weather, the program was canceled.

Rain checks from the June 15 show will be good for one of the next two events on the schedule. Next Thursday, June 21, the Sprint Invaders will make their way to the 3/8-mile oval. Joining the 360 Sprints will be IMCA SportMods and IMCA Stock Cars. While those divisions will be competing for IMCA state, regional and national points, track points will not be awarded in the draw/redraw show. The $9 value of Friday's adult grandstand admission rain check can be used toward grandstand admission on June 21. Those using their rain checks will only need to pay the difference in ticket prices. Visit www.leecountyspeedway.com for more information.

Lee County Speedway is not scheduled to race next Friday, June 22.

For those fans not able to return next Thursday, rain checks from the June 15 show will also be valid for the next night of weekly points racing on June 29 during Mid-Season Championship action. In addition to racing in all five divisions, a candy dash, originally scheduled for June 15, will also be held.

Pit passes from June 15 will also be valid for either the June 21 or June 29 programs.

Providing the weather forecast improves, we'll be back in action on Saturday for the seventh night of weekly points racing of the season at Independence Motor Speedway. Then, on Sunday, I'll be filling in for scorer Kevin Kemp at Benton County Speedway in Vinton. Have a great weekend!
