Personally, I'm not holding my breath.
He said on DoD that he would make the decision no later than today.
Yes he will be having a facebook live this evening is my guess like usual on if its a go or a NO. Im hopefuly but i doubt it will happen this year. As later in the year you will be scheduling against Lucas and woo races.
There are already some cancellations (WoO), could be more for both later in the season. Some dates may open up, but Lucas and WoO will look to fill those as each needs X amount of dates to satisfy sponsor obligations.Quote:

Or unless those dates get cancelled which we wont know til a month away or less. Plus for Illinios WOO is looking at a few of thoses dates for the Illini 100.
Anyone think they'll cap the car counts to a certain number to space people out?
Like the Kings Royal, Knoxville Nationals and the Dream it’s not gonna happen, hope I’m wrong.
It was just announced that the Sandwich Fair is cancelled and that is in early September. Given that development it's hard to believe governor crooked fat-bastard is going to allow an event the size of the PD Classic happen.
I believe if it meant having the PDC this year, a WoO event, and no other options, they’d schedule it even if Lucas was racing same time elsewhere.
It said on DoD racewire for the Fals opener Matt Curl was suppose to announce soon whether or not the PDC would be run on the WoO series. It also said he pledged to run it only if health restrictions allow a full crowd.
I imagine it will get postponed till 2021.
Not looking good with cases on the rise. So far IL is still moving forward with re openings though.
We will find out in a few hours. THE ANNOUNCEMENT will be made this evening. I was there 2 weeks ago on opening rain out and talked to Matt as i was wanting to pick up my tickets for the pdc and he said that i couldnt they werent releasing any out at that time. And that July 1 will be the announcement on this race.
My guess is no PDC, but a smaller event with WoO instead. Maybe a 50 lapper or something.
If thats the case i hope they give all the out of staters first tibs on tickets as some have booked flights already.
I'm guessing if it's a no go this will be the first of some major upcoming events to be cancelled
Rocket1 just tweeted a video of them leaving on 40 days and 40 nights.
Ofcoarse the Fairbury clowns gotta have a big announcement... they still believe the track is the only track in the countryQuote:

Can we all take a chill pill? TBA yes or no Thursday July 2, 2020
Be cool to see shepherd win it again!
Fairbury shouldn't had said he was making the announcement today if he's not going to. Just saying and too many have to book flights an hotels an such or cancel
I’m gonna say it’s a no go. Especially with Lucas and WoO changing Midwest swing today.
Matt never said he was making that announcement today. He said he had hoped to make an announcement by July 1st. Once again people only hear what they want to hear. That is what I remember him saying.
When I talked to him on opening night/ rain out he told me Announcement July 1 and wouldn't let me pick up reserved tickets 26 to be exact and just like eldora ticket sales stop.
He said an announcement was to be made by today. No announcement to me means it’s a noGo as of now and they are trying to wait it out.
Just got confirmation announcement will be tomorrow from a very reliable source.
BLASPHEMY I tell ya'!! Pure BLASPHEMY!!Quote:

Farmer City just released a schedule with a full show on july 31st. might not mean anything but who knows.
I believe they said there would be a decision on July 1st with an announcement to follow. They probably held a meeting yesterday among themselves with an announcement coming today for the public.
I don’t think any Illinois tracks being allowed 100 percent capacity yet. Plus with covid round 2 being fired up since the protests are dying out, I wouldn’t be surprised if Chubby tried to put more limits back in place.
