Advanced Product Design $50,000 To Resume Thursday at the RAD Fall Fling 500K
Day two at the RAD Torque Systems Fall Fling 500K presented by OPTIMA Batteries would see the start of eliminations for Advanced Product Design $50,000 Wednesday on the mountain at Bristol Dragway. Despite the best efforts of the track crew to provide a safe racing surface, intermittent showers disrupted racing activity.
“We have almost 400 racers on the grounds that traveled from all parts of the country to get here. We have the track for all week (and Sunday if needed),” said promoter Peter Biondo. “The Bristol staff, our staff, and myself are one-hundred percent committed to make it happen for our racers, and I am confident we will. When the heavy rain comes through, we ask for your patience to hang in there with us. We will add in some fun stuff if we get long hours of down time.”
In the evening, several practice tree races and poker games were contested in a tower suite for all on property. In race one, Randy Biddle Jr. was off the bottom bulb to defeat Andy Morris, while race two saw Vicky Johnson knock out Mike Miller. In the third race, Emily Biondo used two perfect lights during eliminations and ultimately took the final round win over Vance Houston.
The Fling Team and Bristol Dragway will evaluate the weather Thursday morning to determine the schedule for tomorrow and the rest of the week.
