Haven't seen anything to the contrary. We are headed that way now!

Way to drag the show out. Had plenty of time to get the race in. Dragged it out for over 1 hour to get to the advertised 1:30 start time, just long enough for the rain. Rain in the forecast all day and no urgency. Thanks for nothing Bob Sargent. Keep my $30 you obviously need it worse than I do.

It's a no win situation. If they start the race before the scheduled time then the people who don't get there until the scheduled start time and miss some of it will be pissed. People bought tix and came to this race knowing the weather forecast was iffy. It's too bad they couldn't get it in. Would be nice if they rescheduled for the Saturday of Labor Day so we could have back to back silver crown races!! (Hint hint). 🏁

I think it was back in the eighties. DuQuoin did a makeup in 2003 (I think). It was the first race they ran under the lights, and it was the best one they ever ran.
