Inclement weather has caused delays in preparing the track’s new black gumbo clay surface over the past month, but Greenville Speedway was able to get their season opener in last Saturday night. Track Promoter James Clolinger reported the new clay worked in well and provided a competitive surface.

“The drivers were all happy with the new clay, and they were racing three and four wide all night long,” Clolinger said. “We did have a small hole develop, but we were able to fix that this week, and we’re ready for the NeSmith Chevrolet Dirt Late Model Series Rumble On The Gumbo 75 this weekend.”
