Rain Wins Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series Speedweek Opener at Route 66 Motor Speedway

AMARILLO, Texas (June 1, 2019) While the radar showed the rain had passed, Mother Nature had other things in mind as a small shower after the Driver’s Meeting moved through, only to have the final blow strike just as the track was just about ready to go at Route 66 Motor Speedway with the Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series presented by the MAVTV Motorsports Network.

Everyone in attendance received 50 show-up points. This marks the seventh weather-related cancellation on the season.
