Feature race action at Oakshade Raceway was washed out Saturday night by rain.
Persistent light rain earlier in the evening finally intensified as the UMP Late Model Feature was about to go green. The green flag did wave once with Brian Ruhlman and Oakshade points leader Rick Delong on the front row.
Ronnie Perrine Jr. spun on the high side of turn one to bring out the yellow setting up a complete restart that would never happen. The track began to become too slick for racing and the field continued to run caution laps to try to keep the track from getting worse.
Eventually the cars were sent to the pits and with no end in sight for the rain, the rest of the evening’s features were canceled.
The UMP Late Model and UMP Sportsman Features will be made up on Saturday, August 25 in addition to the entire Season Championship Night program for the UMP Late Models. Bombers Features will be made up at a later date yet to be determined. Please visit www.oakshaderaceway.info for more information.
