4:00 update. Stock R2 is done. It's going to be a while till we get to R3 - still working thru Sportsman R2 - then all the fast and TOP classes need to run their first round.

And yes Tony Goodman, it's going to be a long day.

6:00: several pair into TD and one of them rolls it in the lights. The track crew has been doing a good job getting these incidents cleaned up. A TS car had an incident earlier today.

1960 Cushman Golf Cart. Very cool

The spectator crowd earlier.

6:50: Stock R3 to the lanes.

Mike Delahanty · 05-01-2016, 08:22 PM

8:30. R3 of Stock is done. There is a severe thunderstorm watch until 10 tonite.

We are on a tornado watch. One has touched down near Brownsburg. Huge lightning show. This gonna be big.

I heard on the D3 YouTube live stream for everyone to go to the circle track tunnel for safety.

Everybody OK there?

MR DERBY CITY · 05-02-2016, 07:34 AM

Mike, excellent reporting as always. It was a long day and a Tornado watch / warning will flat get your attention. A tornado touched down in Brownsburg which is very close to the track. When I left the track the local radio station was forecasting EGG size hail and damaging winds around the Plainfield and airport area. WOW !!

Any word on when they will try to finish it?

I left the track about 9:30 and the weather front seemed to have passed the track . It was interesting to see how quickly the remaining racers loaded and got out of the track. I drove back to Detroit in a strong rain. As of early Monday morning I've not heard what the plans are to finish the race . There are still a number of the faster classes that only finished one round of racing . I hope they finish up stock and SS at Norwalk.
