By David Gerard Skies are Clearing!

NORWALK, Ohio - The forth annual Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals at the Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio

Today's activities have been temporally suspended, as the expected rain arrived in torrents for ten to fifteen minutes, before tapering off. Currently it's only a sprinkle and NHRA has started to push the standing water off the starting line.

The final qualifying session for Funny Car had already seen seven of the seventeen competitors make their passes before the track became too damp to continue. Tasca and Wilkerson were scheduled to come up next, but starter Rick Stewart determined that the light mist wasn't safe for them to run in. Shortly after that, the skies opened up and drenched the track with heavy rains briefly.

There hasn't been an announcement on when racing is expected to continue, but we will post updates as information becomes available.
