Hey, it's Unity Raceway and it's raining!

Surprise, surprise.

For the 4th time in as many trips for me this year to Unity Raceway, it has rained. Tonight is noteworthy, however, because it's the first time in those 4 trips that the races were actually rained out.

Oh, sure, Steve Rackliff won a Pro-4 Late Model feature and Troy Patterson won a Teen feature, but the 75-lap Gary Mitchell Memorial for the Super Streets was called off. Hey, it happens.

But for this track trying to do something nice to remember a true racing tragedy, it's a real shame. The race, named for a spectator who was killed when a tire jumped off a car and into the stands during a practice session in 1995, was rained out last week, too.

They'll try again to get it in on Sept. 7.
