NOTE: We are also aware that a weather system is slated to go through the region on Friday night into Saturday morning. We will continue to monitor it and let everyone know on Saturday morning if it affected us. The good news is NOAA is saying that it should be over with before anyone needs to start heading to the track. As long as the timing of the system stays about the same we should know by late morning on Saturday where things are at regarding the racing program - and reminder - this is a dirt track and we have to put thousands and thousands of gallons of water on the track anyway, so it just all depends on how it plays out. We will keep everyone well advised on Saturday morning....and thanks in advance for your patience!
