So many tracks nowadays throw in the towel if it rains and don't have a rain date in place. Thanks Tom for rescheduling. The Class Track describes it perfectly.

" Purple 73 ". You have a good memory. USAC / CRA ran here before Indiana Sprint Week started. If ISW did in fact start in '88 , the USAC / CRA Challenge Series was formed in 1984.They only ran 2...

Hopefully they will run the wing crap last so I can leave. The only reason I'm going is to watch USAC. If they weren't running I would stay home. Wings are okay for some fans, just not for me.

' Dude ' , I know all about freezing your tail off at the races and going without sleep / working. Back in the 70's I saw the red flag thrown at Eldora so the push trucks could run the track back in...

Agree 100 % with postponement for tonight. Who made the decision to put it off until the 17th?? Just now checked the Weather Channel and it calls for a high of 76 and 10% chance of rain for Sunday....

Don't know how far you have to drive, I'm 20 miles east of Brownstown and it's cloudy and kind of dark at 11 a.m.... The Weather Channel on the net shows there's an 85 % chance of rain by 4:00 p.m....

Just a guess mind you : Slim to none. Jac Haudenschild occasionally takes the crutch off. Back in the day the WoO ran with and without the port-o-john bolted on top. Before the WoO even existed I saw...
