Angel Munoz retired after a first-lap wreck that brought out a red flag. ... Promoter Jerry Hanson boosted the purse $1,250-to-win and more money for each position. ... An anonymous fan provided an extra $200 for the purse; it went to 12th-place finisher Albert Sack. ... Friday's action rained out.
