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.

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....

12:30 update says the sky have cleared and they are working on the track now.

With the pay-per-view (I have dish network) The last time I ordered an event pay-per-veiw we had a storm pop up and knock out signal. We only got to see the first 1/2 hour of the boxing event. 1. they did not charge me and 2. u know how they show it 3 or 4 times in a row, they did not charge me to watch it then. I know direct tv is the same way.

Didn't they say that they would have a replay afterwards?? If so then the time should be good.
:dologob:

throb 6/4/08 1:50 PM

Re: Prelude at Eldora
 
replay right after....i am sure they have opened up a rather large time slot for this....and with it being pay per view there isnt anything after to bump it off.....

D.O. you guys still coming over?

Jerry Shaw 6/4/08 2:23 PM

Kyle Busch on dirt ought to be something to watch. I'm not saying he's gonna win, but I bet he's thinks he's going to.:rolling

I think Kyle "Rowdy" Busch will win this thing. The kid is on a roll and drives it wide open all the time, if the setup is right with a tacky track and his flat out style? YUP he's gonna win it.

Jerry: Busch finished 3rd last year and put on a show, running the high line.

Busch is running for Lawrenceburg resident and late model standout Scott James, "The Silver Shark," so I'll take him...

Charles Nungester 6/4/08 3:23 PM

Re: Prelude at Eldora
 
I'll take Bill Elliott if he qualifies well.

Nobody was getting around there faster last year.

I hope he does win. The guy is rapidly becoming my favorite stock car driver. I watched him do at least two sliders on the Monster Mile, this weekend, in getting through lapped traffic. They weren't reckless. Or careless. He just threw the car in EXACTLY where he wanted to and then went on about his business, like it was nothing. I have NASCAR Scanner. Most of the time, I just leave it on the 18 team's channel.

how about reuitiman(?) he has a lot of dirt experiance:thumb

Re: Prelude at Eldora
 
Robby Gordon in a Bloomquist car is very interesting. No doubt the equipment is top notch, so we'll see what Robby can do with it. However if the track is wet like I think it will be I look for Stewart to win this.

Re: Prelude at Eldora
 
yea, with a wet racetrack it's going to take an up on the wheel guy. one with lots of dirt exp. stewart, shrader or maybe cousin carl again. shrader just won 6 grand last friday against some good cars.

2 years ago it rained the prelude out in june and theyran it the wednesday before the world.

Last year I didn't rent the prelude on wednesday when it was on live, they ran it the following weekend on an all day pass...............and it was still 24.95........................something to think about
