NASCAR: Rain Postpones Primestar 500

HAMPTON, GA: For the second day in a row, mother nature has interrupted
the 1998 NASCAR schedule.  The Primestar 500 at the Atlanta Motor Speedway
has been postponed due to rain until Monday at 11:00 a.m. (ET). 

Yesterday, the NASCAR Busch Grand National race was postponed due to rains
in the Atlanta area.  The race was originally rescheduled for Monday, but
NASCAR's top series gets the Monday date.  The new date for the BGN Stihl
300 has not been determined. 

Rain has hampered teams and fans all weekend in Atlanta.  Only one round
of Winston Cup qualifying was held.  The teams will line up according to
their first day qualifying times for the first 36 positions.  The
remaining spots will be taken by teams wishing to use provisional starting
spots.
