How much time have they wasted tonight...? Enough to get it rained out or atleast delayed to a midnight finish like they did to the fans Monday night at wytheville...?? A whole lot of unhappy people left that place...many supported the event from over 2 to 3 hours away on a work night only to see it poorly run...

Johnny Cloer broke and will drive Craig Scott's #0 car for the remainder of the night. Bear Patterson also scratched...

In total agreement. Wythe should have been over before the showers ever got there. Ray needs to tighten up his shows bigtime. Wasted a lot of time at Carolina Speedway also. That's why I stayed home tonight. Hopefully things will get better.
