South Boston, Va….Persistent late afternoon and early-evening rain coupled with weather forecasts calling for continuing rain through the evening forced South Boston Speedway officials to cancel Friday night’s Dr. and Mrs. Maresca of St. Lawrence Radiology Presents Thunder Road Harley Davidson NASCAR Whelen Late Model 200 racing program.
