Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center and Engine Power Drag Racing

Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the track staff, Mother Nature had the final say over LS Fest East's drag racing. Rain showers settled over Beech Bend Raceway Sunday morning and did not relent, and ultimately the difficult decision was made to cancel the drag racing programs. This meant that most of the class elimination races wound up cancelled as well.
