Facebook on their website says they are hopeful if no more rain and good drying conditions this afternoon. Said they had a lot of rain this morning.

10:30 am -- We had a substantial rain earlier this morning, however the skies are starting to clear. If we get an afternoon like yesterday (the forecast was at least 80% wrong) we are still hopeful of racing tonight. If we get more rain, or if we don't get weather that will help dry things out, it will be impossible. At this time we are watching the weather and doing what we can to open on time.

That is two big races that have been lost to rainouts this season. I really hope they reopen next season with 410s every week. I believe they must do that to survive. They are the only game in town for me on Friday night and I would certainly hate to see this historic venue go away!

Per a recent FB post (about 2:30 EDT) by Bloomington Speedway they are rained out tonight at Bloomington. At the time of the post they have not decided if tonight’s event will be rescheduled.
