Lincoln, IL – July 4, 2010 – After 18 consecutive nights of racing, the DIRTcar Summer Nationals tour got its first taste of Mother Nature Sunday night at Lincoln Speedway.
After completing the first lap of the scheduled 40-lap main event, rain began to fall steadily, forcing DIRTcar and Lincoln Speedway officials to postpone the race and look for potential make-up dates.
Three-time and defending Summer Nationals champion Dennis Erb Jr. is once again atop the Hell Tour standings with 10 races remaining in the next 13 days. B-Main: Jeep Van Wormer, Michael Kloos, Scott Bull, Mark Burgtorf, Brian Dively, Brandon Thirlby, Kevin Weaver, Donny Walden, Bobby Pierce, Jim Moon, Charley Hess, John Beck, Chuck Mitchell, Mike Hammerle, Mark Voigt, Ryan Little, Dick Taylor.
