All races were cancelled due to rain this evening. The 1st Street Stock heat race was able to run, but the night was cancelled soon after. |
DIRTcar Big-Block Modifieds Due to excessive ruts and dust, some drivers decided to end the race early to avoid damage to their cars. Other drivers had accidents that left their cars totally destroyed. If you didn't start the race up front, you had no chance because of the dust. For the fans in the stands, it was the dustiest night ever at Canandaigua Speedway's dirt track. Check out Charlie's photo album page for pictures of the heat. |
