It's offical: No racing on Thursday

It's official. There will be no qualifying today at NHRA officially called off the opening session of the season due to rain.
Another session is scheduled for Friday with two slated for Saturday, barring clear skies.
But rain is forecast for Friday and Saturday, with a chance of dry weather on Sunday.
"It's a bummer, but our Matco Tools dragster is still the fastest car this year," Top Fuel competitor Antron Brown said. "We ran that great 3.78 at testing and we really want to try and duplicate that here at Pomona this weekend. The weather has been great here at Pomona all week, but this storm front rolled in and it doesn't look good. We're optimistic because we really want to race this weekend. Pomona is an awesome facility and the Winternationals is such a great event with all the new teams and paint schemes. It a great race for the fans, so we're hoping Mother Nature plays nice and let's us race."
There is a report circulating that NHRA has told the teams that if it rains both days, it will set the field by last season's points and race on Sunday.
NHRA officials have denied that claim.
But NHRA president Tom Compton addressed the issue somewhat earlier in the day.
"In our sport, it depends what rounds we lose, when we lose them," Compton said. "Every event we try to finish the event and move on to the next race. The first priority is to get the event in. The weather forecast for tomorrow doesn't look good, with Saturday a little better.
"We don't have to (have a minimum of two rounds of qualifying), but we'd like to."
