Went by the Action Track this morning around 7 and it looked very good...but it was already pretty moist and it has been raining like the dickens since then...forecast is not good either...bad year so far for THAT weather wise. Wondered if they would reschedule or simply cancel it?

The rain is supposed to be out of there by noon, so that should be enough time to work in a track?

Should be enough time if they get Tommy and his crew up there to fix the track

I'm not trying to be negative, and I am certainly no expert on track conditions like so many others on this board , but I would definitely hold off on the drive for a while...I'm in Brazil about 20 minutes away and it is raining to beat the band. That track has a history of pooling water and I don't have much of a reason to think it hasn't already. Hopefully we will get ample warning from THAT. Would love to go racing tonight, but it ain't looking good folks.

if they do happen to get the race in what is the policy on carrying beer in? I see you can take a small cooler in.

As of last race you can carry in beer and they do not enforce the size rule to closely. Just do not go crazy and try to take a giant cooler in.

I wish you could have seen the track on the 4th. It looked amazing and guess what...Tommy and his crew didn't touch it then.

You can take in as big a cooler as you want but the fair is going on so I don't know what the policy is for that. I bet no tailgating and parting at the camp and that sucks
