You're saying there was a promoter there? Couldn't tell from where we were. Trying to run in the track after the afternoon showers with ONE large tired truck. Had to ask the fans to bring their pickup trucks out to help. Wasted so much time after finally getting started that they had to call the race before it was complete due to the curfew.
If not for Robert Ballou setting an example by coming out to wheel pack, with other cars finally following, the track would never been run in.
I certainly hope this is not a sign of what to expect on May 27th and for Sprint Week. Yes, I know it rained, but a track should have the equipment and personnel to handle what mother nature throws at them.
