Anyone know what the plans are for rainouts on Thursday and/or Friday. Looking like a good chance of rain Thursday afternoon and most of Friday.

Unfortunately I think there is a curfew....
Here we go again...
According to Vande07 there is no curfew.
I didn't figure there was
The people of Knoxville know how important the race track is to their community.
I have never been there for a rained out prelim, but Saturday rained out about 5 years ago and they ran it Sunday afternoon. That was a great night at the Dingus, from what I can remember...
I am going to jinx it....but looks like rain chances coming down a little.
They will have four days to run them. They should get it in, one way or another. BTW the track races pretty good in the day time too. And yes, there is Dingus for plan B.
Sorry, 4m deleted my original login info. Decided to open a new one. No, there is no curfew at Knoxville Raceway. However, I wouldn't anticipate them running until 3 am just to get a show in (except maybe Saturday night) as school is in session and the track is in town (not on the outskirts or in the country, it is literally in the middle of town). As far as the weather goes? Who knows at this point, the same TV channel gave 3 different forecasts within a 2 hour span last night with 3 different TV Meteorologists (one called for late Thursday night into early Friday AM showers, one called for heavy rains all 3 days, and one called for no rain at all). That is weather in Iowa, we won't know for sure until it happens. For those that don't follow Knoxville Raceway on Twitter, Thursday has been dubbed as "Thirsty Thursday". Busch Lite is $1 per can all night (or until they run out) at the beer stand. They did this for a weekly show and on Thursday of the 360 Nationals as well. As long as people drink responsibly, they will continue with promotions such as this in the future according to Kendra and the Fairboard. People start binge drinking and causing trouble in the stands, campgrounds or on the road, they will probably discontinue it. Hoping for a good car count (hard to say since basically no time between the World and this event this year) and if the races throughout the year weekly and during the Sprint Nationals are any indication, this should be an awesome race.

How about $1 bottles of pop for us non drinkers
There is no room for that kind of behavior at Knoxville SHOESTRING lol j/k
Is Busch Lite considered beer in Iowa?
Forecast is looking better for the weekend... Well depending what site you look at. The one I'm going with shows, cloudy thursday, chances of rain friday until 8pm and clear after that, partly sunny on saturday!
Busch Light good grief a lot of folks going to have a miserable weekend between a case of the screaming schitz and a headache from hell !!!
