Rain results in Saturday double features at Masters
NEW RICHMOND, Wis. -A heavy rain shower around 10 p.m. forced officials to postpone Friday's main event at the Masters until Saturday. Both the Super Late Model and USMTS features will begin at 5 p.m., followed by Saturday's regularly schedule program.
The third and final night of the 20th Annual Masters presented by Allstar Performance will kick off with the $5,000-to-win make-up main events, followed by the ferocious finale which offers $10,000 to the winners of both the Super Late Model and USMTS Modified main events. USRA Late Models will also run a complete program with a $1,000-to-win feature race on tap.
Defending Masters champion Rodney Sanders and Dereck Ramirez are on the front row for the start of Saturday's rain-delayed $5,000-to-win feature.
Featuring one of the largest event purses on the 2019 United States Modified Touring Series schedule, this year's overall purse for the crown jewel event is even fatter from top to bottom with Super Late Models sharing the spotlight and competing for the same big paydays as the USMTS Modifieds all three days.
RacinDirt will have every lap in all three divisions live at RacinDirt.com.
