Rain Does in Macon During Features
By Brett Zerfowski
MACON, IL (May 1) - As the Modified feature raced along with multiple
cautions, the rain arrived and slowed the action to a stop. As the rain
continued to dampen the track and the cars were unable to keep the track
raceable, the decision was simple. The light and persistent shower began at
9:19pm and the track officials made the decision to end the show shortly
before 9:45pm. Only four laps of the 20 were complete in the Modified A-Main
before the rain forced the hand of the officials to call it.
The debut of the High School Hornets had nine cars show up but the feature
was washed away as were the Pro and Amateur Hornets and the much-anticipated
$500-to-win Street Stock feature.
Despite not having the Late Models in attendance, the car count still
finished over 100 and the stands were full.
Decisions about the make-up of Saturday’s features will be announced as soon
as possible on the web site, www.maconracing.com. The second Saturday of May
will feature the Mother Dear program with the Crazy Chicks N Cars race as
well as special prizes for the attending mothers. The Late Models will make
return with the start Big Ten Late Model series for 2010.
