Crowd must have been small, that is the only thing that would explain running an 8 car semi to transfer 7 cars with rain bearing down on Lincoln when that time could have been used to get the feature in? Don't know, just thinking out loud!
Kevin Miller, forgot his billfold and figure if it rain, he could use the purse money for some pocket change. The Racer do not need the cash to get down the road. Already heard of two teams considering heading west.
They did everything they could. Eleven car B,but not all showed. Came close to starting the A in the rain. Lined up the A and ran 20 or so slippery as hell hot laps,then got them back in starting formation . Hines left front went flat while lining up and the rain hasn't stopped since. Rained before 930 still raining at 11.Waited an hour and had to call it.
Double features next year. I'll be back . Weather looks good from here on . Just the facts from the actual scene.
Calling it was Mother Nature ,not USAC. There's two cars with engine issues I could see them leaving.Hope not. Again just the facts from people actually at the races, enjoying life.(rain or shine)
How are they going to do double features a year later? USAC website said the purse money will be added to next year's race. That makes a little more sense.

Keep in mind, JT, the feature field is already set. Should be interesting to see how this is handled. I guess we will know in about 360some days, right!
