Rain claims checkered flag at Dakota mods tour stop at EMS

Thunderbolts and lightning were very, very frightening but it was rain that washed out the Kupper Chevrolet Dakota Classic Modified Tour stop at the Estevan Motor Speedway Monday night.
Dakota Mods
The Dakota Modified tour got the heat races off but not the A features. Estevan's Les McLenehan (29A) and Norwich, N.D.'s Zach Dockter (6z) lead their heat early in the evening.

Thunderbolts and lightning were very, very frightening but it was rain that washed out the Kupper Chevrolet Dakota Classic Modified Tour stop at the Estevan Motor Speedway Monday night.

The heat races got off largely on time and without major incidents but just as the street stock cars were taking their laps on the track to warm up for their A feature races, the heavens opened up and buckets of rain came down onto the track. While a little bit of rain could have worked, by the time the rain came down hard, it was only a matter of moments before organizers called it a night.

The purse was split evenly between the drivers who qualified for the A feature in the stocks and the modifieds, as were the points.
