Port Royal website showing red lights saying show has been canceled.

Talk about a bunch of S H I T !!!!

Racing isn't supposed to start till 7 PM or later. You telling me they can't be ready by then.

You know if they're scared of whatever has them scared, then they shouldn't book an event like this in the first place. I don't know if it's financial or just thinking they're going to hurt someone, who knows, but it's still BS.

Dirt track racing in Pennsylvania is a joke and a bad one at that. Dry slick tracks, fuel stops, follow the leader parades. It's why I don't go to the races in PA and haven't since early 90's. I save my money to come see real racing in Indiana & California every year.

My wife said to me she hopes USAC doesn't come back, as the PA promoters don't deserve to have them here. Unfortunately I have to agree. Just like my Dad always said, "Boy, if you can't do it right, don't do it at all!" Man, due those words ever ring true with the P I S S poor excuse track conditions & lack of effort we've seen with PA promoters concerning the USAC Eastern Storm this year.

Unbelievable

Good luck with that.

I have been to the Port. It is scary FAST. The straightaways are long and fast. I was surprised they added that track to the tour. Huge motor eater in my book.
