Sun, 3 Oct 1999, 12:32 PM Pre-Race Ceremonies Ready to Begin

By Ed Dykes Action Still On Hold

TOPEKA, Kan. -- The NHRA Marketing folks are assembling the participants for the pre-race ceremony here at the Advance Auto Parts Nationals at Heartland Park, as the Safety Safari has completed their track drying process and we're ready to go racing.

The weather delays have virtually eliminated any chance that NHRA will be able to complete this event today, and right now the plan is that we'll work to finish the pro category eliminations today and leave the sportsman until tomorrow.

We expect the first round of Top Fuel will kick off within the hour, so stay tuned for all the action from the land of Oz.
