Abbottstown, Pennsylvania…….Just as cars pushed onto the track for Wednesday night’s AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championship 30-lap Feature at Lincoln Speedway, the skies let loose and forced officials to call off the evening’s finale.
In addition to teams receiving money for advancing to the feature, all additional purse money will be added to the Lincoln Speedway “Eastern Storm” event next season.
The evening started out with Dave Darland breaking the existing track record with a time of 15.174 seconds as nine total cars ended up under the old mark.
