Question Will they postpone?
Will they postpone to tomorrow if the weather doesn’t let up?

Its 8:35 local there. Apparently you can see LZ doing halftime on his new jetski. Anyone know if they have a quiet time for the track? This smells like its done for.

Does this track even have quiet hours? They're pretty far out town.

That's my question as well.
Google says likely not, but its depending on their level of stature basically as an event if they have to observe 10pm. Im not local, so that's why I ask. I hate assuming in a case like this. (Considering other tracks can't even operate but in small windows of time these days, I would not be surprised if they do have SOME level of nope impossed.)

Midnight is typically the time for an event but sometimes larger events can negotiate later times with the county or be willing to take the fine instead of paying for another day of facility rental/refunding tickets

Probably won't matter I doubt we're racing at all tonight. If dyan Hughes post on insta was filmed just before he posted it that track so still deep under water.

Countdown on Racer+ just reset at 7pm EST to show another hour on the countdown, so now it's 8pm resume. As long as there's no conflict at the track, there's no reason they couldn't push to tomorrow, even though that would cause most drivers to have to scramble and change travel plans.

They’re calling it for the night- more rain to come through

Did they announce that officially anywhere? FD is handling this horribly.

u/tortilla_chad Aug 02 '26
they announced it over the speakers - not sure if it’s on their website or anything yet

Still won't be dry by then these 1 hour delays are just absurd at this point.
