TONIGHT! 7 Feature Races Slated in 4 Divisions at Red River Speedway - Fri. June 26, 8pm
Wichita Falls, TX (6/26/15) by DarinShort.com. TONIGHT, Friday June 26th, Red River Speedway (RRS) will host a full night of racing action with the Sprint Cars, Limited Modifieds, Pro Stocks and Mini Stocks. The Modifieds are scheduled off.
The current forecast at 8pm race time is for 88 degrees and partly cloudy, with a light breeze out of the north, making for very pleasant racing conditions.
As a bonus, the night will kick off with feature races in the Sprint Cars, Pro Stocks and Mini Stocks that were rained out from Friday June 12. The feature races in those divisions are set, and no 'new' cars will be added to their starting field. Only drivers qualified for those make up features will be allowed to race.
After those feature events have been concluded, those same four scheduled divisions for June 26 will compete in heat races and feature events. This includes any new cars that were not present on June 12.
There are no rain checks (pits and grandstands) from the June 12 race since all of those feature races are being made up.
Note that the June 12th make up features for the Modifieds and Limited Modifieds will be added to the Friday July 10th event.
Here are the top-line specifics of the FRIDAY JUNE 26th RRS racing event:
-Pit Gates open by 5pm, Grandstands open at 6pm, Draw Cutoff at 7:15pm, with Racing by 8pm.
