Air Titan 2.0 tried with the aid of the jet dryers, but it wasn’t enough as rain has postponed the NASCAR Camping World Series Kroger 200 till Sunday after the Sprint Cup Series race. NASCAR says the race will be ran at approximately 5:30 p.m. EST.
FOX has announced that the Cup race will air on FOX as scheduled, while they’ll air the truck race on FOX Sports 1.
When the field does take the green flag, defending race winner Darrell Wallace Jr. will start the race on pole after qualifying was washed out with the field was set by practice speeds yesterday.
He will be joined on the front row by fellow sophomore driver Ryan Blaney, followed by Timothy Peters, Erik Jones and Ron Hornaday Jr. Hornaday Jr. is hoping to run the full schedule this year with Turner-Scott Motorsports, but it’ll depend on sponsorship moving forward.
Rookie Ben Kennedy will start sixth, followed by Brian Ickler, German Quiroga, Cole Custer and Matt Crafton. Custer is making his first career truck series start this weekend. Last year’s spring winner Johnny Sauter will start 14th
