Spud's opening on hold

Spud Speedway won't open this weekend, as previously planned.

New track owner Greg Veinote confirmed Thursday that state inspectors have yet to check the place out and give it the OK. In fact, Veinote said in a phone message, they were supposed to have arrived on Monday.

Greg's still waiting for them to show.

In the meantime, the tentative plan is for Spud to open on Sunday, July 22. We all know what day that is -- maybe Spud's opening is the big event we kept hearing would rival the Oxford 250 this year.

Maybe Spud is where Bill Elliott is going to race that weekend!

Oooh... good one. Makes me wish I'd thought of that line first!
