NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Weather permitting, I will be bringing you Live, Interactive Updates from Central Texas Speedway this evening starting at 6 PM. CTS has a long history of avoiding wet weather on race day and we're all hoping this will be the case today in spite of the high percentage of precipitation predicted. Racing at CTS is always action-packed and you will want to be there, but if you can't make it, join me for the updates. To get started, click on the "Live Updates" tab near the top of the page.

NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Well, I made it to the track around 1 pm... and at 2pm the skies opened up... still raining hard right here at the track. The track officials are hoping it will stop soon and they can get things dried up in time to get this one in... Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Some trucks and a few cars are out on the track surface trying to dry things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 One of the trucks drying the track just spun out in turn four and is stuck in the muddy infield... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 We just missed a heavy shower to our West... all we got were a few sprinkles.. Now if we can miss them all like that, we'll be in business... Here's a shot out the back porch of the press box I took a few minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickHolt Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 And I've stopped the live updates due to lighting and big drops of rain... The track did their best, but the weather won this round. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
