Christmas in the Kingdom 2020 Holiday Classic runs on despite early rain By Gray Sutherland The 2020 Holiday Classic at Possum Kingdom made its appearance to kick off the month of December just outside of Belton, SC. Drivers, crews, and fans braved plummeting temperatures and intermittent wind gusts for a Saturday-Sunday show as Friday had to be called because of heavy rain. Clint Mills and company quickly whipped the track back into shape and after some TLC, she was ready. Phil Combs was on the call and you'll be able to hear him throughout some of the videos as well as see the podium finishers from the classes that ran.
