What a dreary day today in North Carolina! Everybody say rain rain go away! Tonight is the 67th season at Bowman Gray Stadium! We hope this rain will pass so we can race tonight!
We will be covering the racetrack from start to finish, so come on down and enjoy! Tickets are 10 dollars!
Todays forecast is heavy rain all day, but there seems to be a break from about 5 in the afternoon to 10 in the evening. The high today is going to 58 degrees and it will lower down into the 40's at about 8:00. So ladies and gentleman wear your coats this evening!!!! Yesterday, April 24th, was a busy day consisting of taking pictures and talking to drivers, and watching qualifications and practices! Boy oh boy does it sound like they are ready to race! Each driver went on the track and practiced until about 6:40 when drivers had to qualify. Jason Myers took the pole last night with the fastest lap being 13.309 followed by Tim Brown in second with his lap time being 13.310, then Brandon Ward third with his lap time being 13.345 and fourth being Burt Myers with lap time of 13.41. Like I said before, we just need this rain to leave!

Yesterday I had the opportunity to get close to one of our fans; Bill Garnett. As I interviewed him, I became more and more interested and had come to found out that he has been enjoying Bowman Gray for 45 years! That's incredible! His favorite drivers are Tim Brown and Lee Jeffreys, and travels down from King every chance he gets to see them race. Yesterday, his son had traveled 5 hours from the coast to watch the race as well! What dedicated fans we have! Mr. Garnett had explained to me that he always had a fascination with racing because his father raced in a Gremlin car when he was younger. Keep it up Mr. Garnett and we hope to see you again soon!
