Location: Richmond, Va.

The weather forecast for Points Race #5 was to be hot and humid. When club members arrived at the track they found several paving machines at one end of the track. The owners of the equipment could not be contacted so a decision was made to shorten the layout and distort it slightly to regain some of the lost room. When setup was complete a drivers meeting was held and registration was opened, followed by 2 round of controlled practice.
