You expect them to risk losing a lot of money?
Again, it's mother nature, and it's a business.

This makes too much logical sense, HOWEVER; if I am taking time to go to a big event, taking vacation etc. I am not going to chance going to a place that has shown inability to be flexible because of curfew or lack of equipment to work the track into shape even after lots of rain to a point (think Eldora.)
Yes, they got dealt a bad hand, but they have shown a weakness not of their own making and it makes it harder to justify going to Mansfield instead of the Kings Royal, or Ohio Speedweek, or Pa Speedweek, or Knoxville or take your pick of big events.
