Official Race Forecast CMP:

It's race time! This weekend is the Pit Bull Brawl at Carolina Motorsports Park. Weather will be very summer-like for the races this weekend at CMP.  A frontal boundary will stall across the region and bring a better chance for afternoon thunderstorms.  Saturday will be the warmest day with high temperatures in the upper 80's.  As the frontal boundary drops south, there is a chance for widely scattered thunderstorms in the late afternoon. Sunday with the front stalled across the region expect more clouds and an increased chance for scattered thunderstorms.  Clouds will keep temperatures a bit cooler on Sunday compared to Saturday, but temperatures will still be warm.  COOLSHIRTS are definitely needed this weekend.  We look forward toseeing everyone for the awards ceremony Saturday night.
