Heard it rained so hard near the track tonight you couldn't see. Guess for once the weatherman got it right.

Looks like USAC thinks everything is a go. This was from their Twitter 25 minutes ago:

"USAClive All gates open at noon today @EldoraSpeedway for tonight's #4Crown Nationals! Big night of USAC racing with all three divisions!"

I'm ready for my yearly triple dose of Eldora! Don't forget to bring you another layer to throw on once it starts to cool down, later in the evening.
