I am thinking of traveling to Eldora this weekend. I noticed that the weather does not look good for Saturday. What day do they run if Saturday is out? Do they wait for Sunday, or go for it the next weekend?

If you look in your mirror and see a line of cars behind you, be kind and pull over.

I agree just go and there will be racing sooner or later. They will run this. It's the end of the year. As Janis Joplin says "you better get while you can".

Weather looks good for both days as of right now. Possibly a late afternoon/early evening shower on Saturday, but nothing to cancel the program over. Weather looks even better for Sunday at Waynesfield for our final points event of the season. Just 45 minutes from Eldora off US 33.
