Good morning and welcome from Shakespeare County Raceway for our coverage of the Stripe 21 Open Sport Nationals brought to you in association with Alamo Rent-A-Car.

The Webster Race Engineering/Nimbus Motorsport webcam is on-line and will be broadcasting video and audio as long as the track is open. Thanks to our good buddies at Doyousee.me for streaming facilities and to Tim Long for setting up the web cam at the track.

It's overcast but dry here at Shakey and the track crew are presently drying the surface following an earlier shower. Today's running order begins with the thirteen classes still to complete their second qualifying session, and then into the third and fourth planned sessions. Stay tuned and as soon as the wheels start to turn we will bring you the news.
