Kroger 250 Suspended Due To Continuous Rain; Darrell Wallace Jr. On Pole

Track activity has been suspended at Martinsville Speedway. Rain showers have forced NASCAR Sprint Cup Series practices, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series qualifying to be cancelled.  As of 2:30 PM EST the rain continues to fall which has the Kroger 250 under a rain delay currently.

Darrell Wallace Jr., defending winner at Martinsville, will start the race on pole after qualifying was washed out – the field was set by practice speeds yesterday.

NASCAR is unsure whether the race will be ran today, but with the new Air Titan 2.0 the track can be dried much quicker, it now depends on how long the rain remains.

If the Camping World Truck Series race isn’t ran today then the possibilities boil down to a doubleheader with the Sprint Cup Series tomorrow or running during the day on Monday.
