WEST HAVEN — A day-long rain forced officials at Devil's Bowl Speedway to postpone Sunday night's racing card.
The rainout was the first after 11 consecutive weeks of racing at the Vermont track, which, until Sunday, had managed to dodge the bad weather systems that have plagued other tracks throughout the Northeast this summer.
All divisions will be in action when Devil's Bowl resumes its schedule on Sunday. It will also be CDL Night at the speedway, with all fans holding a valid CDL license getting free admission.
Racing will begin at 6:45 p.m.
