doesnt look good.......i guess the rain subsiding will be in about an hour or so........

If they do run, it will be a heavy track I'd bet!

i bet they work there arses off to get this show in. Think about how hard the scheduleing is for it. I know 1 thing, i hate to think what the fuel bill will be to get the track in shape.

the last year earl owned the track, they had over 2 inches of rain the night before. it rain that morning too. he worked on that track all day long, and actually turned it into a pretty decent track. Those guys worked hard on it all day long though. That day i thought we were doomed, As i walked into the track, I seen a truck Stuck on the front stretch. they pulled it off and broke out the tractors.

well it is for a good cause so they should work thier butts off! i hope they get it in!

I heard Tony say on Sirius that they were working hard to seal the track before the rains came. I would bet that if the rain stops by mid afternoon that they'll get it back for tonight (or maybe early tomorrow). It wouldn't be the first time that they raced to daylight at the Big E.

Here's a for-instance for those of us that are watching on PPV.

1. It rains out after 5:30 buy time.

2. It is rain delayed and runs long and the PPV time expires.

Probably a question for the cable company, but anyone ever encountered this?

i wondered the same thing....might be worth trying to find the fine print......but surley if you pay for a service and the service isnt rendered then they will give you a credit....
