I see both sides of it. I live an hour away from the closest race track. If the weather is real hit and miss, I will reley on updates to decide weather I am going or not. Because of working 2 jobs, I do not chance it on rainy nights because normally I can not make the rain date. Now on refunds, I have never had a problem with a track using rain outs toward another event. The last time I was rained out at Gas City for a usac race, they let me use my band at a regular night show. Ya I lost a little money on the deal but I could not make it back to the reschedule date. I was thankful they worked with me. Now to those of you complaining about not getting a refund at the gate. Most of the series you show up to watch are getting paid regaurdless. I can not name for you a track raking in money just hand over fist. So where do you think that sanctioning fee is coming from. It is hard to shell out 10 to 30 thousand while you are watching rain drops fall.
