Unfortunately, after hours of work trying to get the track into shape after the last two days of rain, we have to cancel tonight's spring 50. We have made every effort to get the track worked in but the dirt is not drying out or compacting enough to make a safe racing surface. We apologize to those who were en route to the track or already here. We had every intention of racing today l, but it just was not in the cards.

Let's blow a gasket. I can't remember how many times I've driven somewhere back before we had all of this social media and things now days and found out the race was cancelled. Not really seeing what throwing a fit over a message board is going to solve anything.

Why you keep deleting? But when some one uses it as a quote in their post, it doesn't get deleted. One way Phucks !!!

Could be wrong here but it reads like luvinthedirt was "hauling" something.. Like pulling a trailer of some size with a racecar in it, not "driving" to a race..

Regardless if he was hauling something or driving....I've been in that same boat as well. I just don't see what going off on here is going to change anything?

[luvinthedirt]

Exactly !! Florence made it clear they were racing. None of the social media sites they are on said anything different. Yes we hauled a long distance.
Btw on couch watching KY lose. Haha

I have Wis. on my board Winning the whole thing.

We made the trip over and after an hour of relaxing from the drive got the bad news. We accept the outcome of cancelling as the track may well have gotten to rough, making it a very bad deal for the drivers. Will be back for the new Spring 50 date.

The problem lies in timing. 4 MINUTES prior to scheduled pit gate opening. They've been doing the track for years and I would tend to believe that they could have had some idea that they wouldn't be able to get it in. People need more notice.

Plus drivers who could have gone elsewhere to race that night...

I'd made the four drive north and already checked into a hotel for the night... but eh, (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) happens.

I still managed to salvage the evening with a trip to Lawrenceburg Speedway just across the river. No late models but the mod feature was great and the sprints put on a good show as well.
