RAIN WASHES
OUT ROCKINGHAM’S
DRAGSTOCK XI PRO
MOD RACE
ROCKINGHAM, N.C.
– Heavy rain
washed out final
eliminations
Sunday in
Dragstock XI at
Rockingham
Dragway, the
seventh of eight
races in the
PDRA Pro
Modified Series.
The event will
be completed in
conjunction with
the PDRA season
finale, Oct.
10-11, at
Virginia
Motorsports
Park.
“Very
disappointing,”
Rockingham
Dragway owner
Steve Earwood
said of the
outcome. “We had
a helluva a race
going but, once
again, you find
yourself at the
mercy of Mother
Nature. Our crew
and the PDRA
crew went above
and beyond
trying to get
the track dry,
but it seemed
like every time
we were within a
couple minutes
of ‘go,’ the
clouds opened up
again.
“We had a great
Saturday night
show and I think
everyone was
looking forward
to a great race
on Sunday,” he
said. “It’s just
one of those
things you have
to deal with if
you’re in this
business any
time at all.”
Before the rain,
Gene Hector of
Big Spring,
Texas, scored a
major upset by
beating No. 1
qualifier Jason
Scruggs of
Saltillo,
Mississippi in
the featured Pro
Extreme
category. That
puts point
leader and No. 2
qualifier Bubba
Stanton of Potts
Camp,
Mississippi in
the driver’s
seat when racing
resumes in
Richmond,
Virginia.
First round
racing was
completed in
every category
except Pro Stock
when rain forced
the first of
several
suspensions of
competition
before officials
finally pulled
the plug on the
event at 3 p.m.
