Not defending Flo, but they had had a BUNCH of rain. Flo, Nor USAC had much idea when the track crew at TSS would get the surface usable.

But yet you got to see a good race didn"t you? You have no idea how much rain we got in Haubstadt,, I"ve hard anywhere from 1 and a half to 3 inches in bout 2 hours , thats a lot of water no matter. Most tracks would have used their rain date, But Tom and crew just went and brought out the flied tractors and went to work. Yes it took roughly a hour longer, BUT there was racing . It wasn"t Flo"s nor USAC"s or Tri States flaut just mother nature being mother nature. After all that work we had a FAST, SMOOTH track with nNO HOLRS track.. Before you bad mouth something stop and think about what happened first.

I dont see a bad mouthing anywhere. We all tune in, Get that same annoying video/audio clip and wait. It's hard to update sites in a few seconds.

But me, Id much rather watch a tractor show. At least you got some Idea what's going on. Go live at scheduled time when possible. My advice.

Post was not meant as “bad mouthing”.
I’m thankful for TSS crew, USAC, Flo & awesome racers. I am slightly frustrated that Flo’s advertising was not correct. Thank you all for your input. ISW ‘21 was fabulous!!!

Dang Jim, that's rough! To me it just seemed like the OP was not privy to the race being delayed an hour (turned out to be 2). No need to jump down his throat.

Red Sorry guess I took it wrong . I was there in the rain and saw what was going on. If watching Flo you might not have known what was happening.

Kinda with Charles on this one. When there’s a delay, I’d rather they just turn camera on and at bottom of the screen put something like weather delay or something similar what ever the situation is. Would keep a lot of people asking questions and/or complaining from just seeing the big ole “F” on the screen and event starting soon

Eat dirt, be happy
Let’s go Brandon!!
