HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) — Atlanta Motor Speedway officials have announced that they have postponed the repaving of the 20-year-old racing surface at least until after next year’s race weekend. The decision is certain to please numerous drivers who prefer the aged, abrasive surface, saying it makes the racing more challenging and exciting. However, it also increases the chance that a race could be delayed by crumbling asphalt or water seeping up through the track.
