Mother Nature has been a tough competitor in the 2019 race season and Saturday night was no different. After only a 20% forecast we ran most of the features under a threat of weather. The Blacksheep Woodland Late model sportsman were the last feature of the evening. A decision earlier in the evening to cut the laps to 40 worked out as the race was stopped at lap 21 due to weather. At that point most drivers were on the edge of grip and the decision was made to call it an official race with Dave Mader #18m taking home the trophy.
