Albany, KY-July 16- With the final preliminary event of the evening on the track, a sudden power failure to the lights on the turn three and four end of the racing surface caused a lengthy delay in action. After checking the situation over, track promoter Tommy Craig informed NARA president Spencer Wilson that the electrical situation could not be repaired to be able to complete the racing program.

The feature race is set and will be completed on August 13, the next time the BoB Mod Squad was scheduled to return to Clinton County. Instead of another BoB Modified race, there will be a regular race program that evening as well, giving the drivers a chance to race in two feature events. Also, if there are any cars that show up on August 13 that were not there on July 16 and want to attempt to make the Battle of the Bluegrass Modified Series feature event. Both Clinton County Speedway and the NARA Battle of the Bluegrass Modified Series apologize for any inconvenience caused to race teams and race fans.

In preliminay action, Mike Marlar of Winfield, TN was the Racing Optics Fast Qualifier with a qualifying lap of 13.315 seconds. There were two Crown Spray Power qualifying heats contested with Ricky Arms of Moss, TN winning the 1st heat over Marlar, Hank Bradley, Bill Oatts, and Dwight Chitwood. The 2nd heat would see Brandon Green of Walton, KY make a last lap pass of series points leader Kelly Warren to take the win. The rest of the top five from this heat were Anthony Reams, Keith Denny, and Jimmy Payne.
