By the radar, things aren't looking good for the evening festivities. Anybody have a clue as to what they'll do? I'm dreading having to stay for Sunday.

From the Eldora website - FRIDAY (3:00 PM): This afternoon's rain only helps us water the track. We WILL race tonight!

I got the DoD pay-per-view last night and it was really good coverage. Very impressive production.
I plan to do it again tonight but I'll wait until I see them working the track.
Here is a link that somebody shared on another thread with a picture of the track. I believe it is updated every 2 minutes.

About a half dozen trucks packing it in now.

Be late, but they said they'll do all they can to get it in tonight. So yes, a late one tonight.

It can't soak into that place very much, no matter how much it rains. If they would scratch up the surface a few inches and mix the dry dirt with the slush, they could roll that place in much quicker than just trying to air it out with trucks.
