After driving 3 hours and checking FB the whole way and Rock Crest saying they WILL be racing and as I'm about to pay for the pi passes they call it that was my first time coming and now it will be my last along with several other sprint car guys...they say the track was not safe, however I walked down and looked at it...i went to kokomo after I left and it would have been no problem to work the track in..kokomo did it with a even wetter track...besides that they had only made one or 2 passes around the track with the tractor and had not touched it before AT ALL... Can't cancel at 4pm with sunshine all day and posts saying your dfntly racing.. This hurt their car counts alot for next year..

Do you recall my post about not depending on FB? When in doubt, always call if you have a long drive to make, or ck with IOW as you progress. Just sayin!

I'll be honest, I took the dog out at noon, There was a fifteen mph wind and it was chilly. I didn't leave. But I would have been halfway there by the time I seen anything of a cancellation. They said they were running, that was good enough for me, I'd of never checked afterwards. Friend texted me at 430 and said they cancelled. I got no idea what time that decision was made.

Im from the pre internet days, Dozens of times I shown up or seen haulers going the opposite direction to find a show had cancelled. Sometimes for no obvious reason.

I don't know what it means for Rock Crest.

I will say this, Guys need to support the tracks that do everything they can to run, pay what they advertise everytime and support em Slim fields help nobody.

One thing for sure, you can never be sure you'll get to race or watch, unless it's an indoor race, and then it is not a given, my first year with a Midget, we pulled to Danville 3 times before we got to run, I don't remember how many times we were rained out that year, but we didn't quit , not a guarantee on either end, just think what the promoter was out, we usually ate anyway, something we didn't always get to do together, so we had a good time, and we did it again.
