Friday’s Bloomington USAC ISW Race Rained Out, Rescheduled for Sunday
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Friday night’s round of the 37th annual NOS Energy Drink USAC Indiana Sprint Week Presented By Honest Abe Roofing at Bloomington Speedway was interrupted by showers that hit the 1/4-mile dirt oval just as the third heat race was lining up.
Following extensive assessment and on-track work by the Bloomington Speedway crew, the grounds were deemed too wet and unsafe to continue with the night's program.
The event featuring the USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship will now be held on Sunday, August 4, with a completely new program starting from scratch. Hot laps will be followed by qualifying, heat races, last chance races and the 30-lap feature race.
Fans and teams may use Friday’s event wristbands to gain entry into Bloomington Speedway for Sunday’s program. Pits will open at 3pm Eastern, with the grandstands opening at 4pm, the drivers meeting starting at 5:45 and hot laps set for 6:30pm, followed by qualifying and the entirety of the racing program.
For points and record keeping purposes, Friday’s event is in the history books. Carson Garrett (Littleton, Colo.) earned his first career Honest Abe Roofing Fast Qualifier award during time trials with a lap of 11.455 seconds in his BGE Dougherty Motorsports/Altoz – Hornbeck Concrete – Lugs Lawn Care/DRC/1-Way Chevy.
Two of the four heat races were completed during the course of the evening with Anton Hernandez (Arlington, Texas) scoring Simpson Race Products Heat One while Brady Bacon (Broken Arrow, Okla.) captured Rod End Supply Heat Two.
Since qualifications were run to completion, Garrett will retain his six points earned in the session, plus the $200 bonus from Honest Abe Roofing. Furthermore, since all four heat races were not run to completion and not every driver was able to compete and earn points, heat race points were not awarded. All drivers in the field earned 10 appearance points, plus qualifying points.
Prior to Sunday’s Indiana Sprint Week finale at Bloomington, the series heads to Haubstadt, Indiana’s Tri-State Speedway on Saturday, August 3.
