Rain Knocks Out DIRTcar Summer Nationals at Cedar Lake Speedway
NEW RICHMOND, Wis. — June 14, 2014 — Heavy rain has forced DIRTcar and Cedar Lake Speedway officials to cancel Saturday night’s finale to the Masters Weekend.
The DIRTcar Summer Nationals tour shifts Sunday to Wilmot (Wis.) Raceway.
Following his victory on Friday night at Cedar Lake, Rick Eckert has a five-point lead in the DIRTcar Summer Nationals championship standings over Billy Moyer, who won at Kankakee County Speedway on Thursday night. Bobby Pierce, who finished second to Brandon Sheppard in the 2013 Summer Nationals championship, is third with Ryan Unzicker and Brian Shirley rounding out the top five.
