Florence Hell Tour

[TTS_JF]

Cancelled tonight per facebook.

[Highside Hustler25]

dang, this has to be the worst Hell Tour ever in regards to events run. I've made 5 shows. Normally shoot for 10-12. Mother nature can be cruel sometimes.

[TTS_JF]

Rain has been hard on Florence this year for sure; I want to say 5 rain outs maybe more.

[Weaver Fan]

As much rain we are getting in central Illinois today I don't think Macon will be racing on Thursday.

[kidrock]

I wouldn't count Bob out just yet!!!!

[Weaver Fan]

That's true, but when the county the track is in is under a flash flood watch into Thursday and the estimates are up to several inches of rain on top of saturated grounds it's not a good outlook.

Very true, if we get several inches your probably going to be right but, we have to get it first and you know with the weather here in Illinois you never know from minute to minute what's going to happen.

[Weaver Fan]

Is it not raining where you are? It's been raining solid for the last 6 hours in Springfield, about 30 miles from the track and the radar is nothing but solid green across central Illinois? On top of it being 57 degrees on July 8, that's just crazy.

[Weaver Fan]

Me too, this is my favorite race on the Hell Tour!!!!!!!

I think this is rainout number 7 for Florence this year out of 15 scheduled races. Not a lot of races left on the schedule for Florence so I hope the weather pattern changes now. The season passes were definitely not worth it this year, we'll be losing money on them.

Your right Gary. When it rains, the Macon pits are definitely a mud pit. Chances of this race happening are slim to none.:(

I need too stop being the bearer of bad news when it comes to you...Been too 1 race this year and was set too go too FamerCity Friday Lets just hope.........

[blackdirt]

If the sun does not come out, warm up and get windy, there won't be any racing in central illinois in the next few days. Sorry

[kidrock]

Get some diamond dry and spread it out in the pits to help dry things out faster. To bad this couldn't happen sometimes.

[IZZOJR16]

Please send rain out here to the westcoast & northwest asap!!!!!!!

[Pops15]

Just checked weather.com. After 2:00 A.M. the forecast looks pretty good for Macon.
The west pits might be ok. The north pits are sure to be a mess. Worse case scenario is some might have to pit in the gravel lot that used to be the south pit or in the grass parking lot next to the west pit area.

With all the rain out's, I wonder if UMP will cut the point fund ?

Nothing in the rules about minimum amount of races so doubt it.
