I feel bad for those that like to go to these races because it seems to get rained out every year. I can’t remember the last time Macon had a Lucas race. Was it 2018-2019?

It was 2018.
It was 18. Me and a buddy drove out 6hrs and back 6hrs in the same day. We've planned to do the same thing every year since, but it's rained out every time.
Looks like lolms jumped the gun on weather hasn't rained all day at granite city and 50 after midnight. GO FIGURE
Sure seems to me, alot of these tracks are pulling the plug too early!
Weather apps are gonna be the death of us......lol!
Just now getting light rain @ Tri City. Looks like it will be out of the area by 6:30.Quote:

They called them off last year early in the week and it didn't rain at either place the entire weekend. If high fuel prices are going to cause those rainouts, then why schedule it to begin with? If a team is running a national tour, then said team can afford the fuel cost. If they can't, maybe try a regional tour or an independent schedule.Quote:

Ponderosa canceled per Hudson O'neal page.
The whole weekend is cancelled again!! Terrible
Well my mavtv sub ends on may 18th so I decided to go ahead and cancel and now even that is a total pain in the a$$.
Received an email that my subscription with MavTVplus has been cancelled. So relieved to dump that joke of a company. They even screwed up the way to cancel on the website. My advice to all is to stay clear of this clown show.
