An Update from Charlotte
Heavy rains fell at the Charlotte Motor Speedway late afternoon, slowing qualifying times for this evening’s race.
Penelope Carlisle is starting in the 8th row, inside, for tonight’s race. Her qualifying time of 19.591 was a full four-tenths slower than the times she was posting earlier in the day during practice runs. Those slower times, however, held true for most of the people running in the field.
The Advance will post the results of this evening’s race later this evening, along with a full story and interviews from the pits.
