    Well, you win some and you lose some. Today, we lost. Unfortunately, we had a popup storm hit us and has caused the cancelation of today's events. Any possible reschedule date will be announced in the future. We have a good forecast for tomorrow and the SuperChevyStores.com 100 presented by Jive should go on as planned. More detailed information coming at a later time. Full info on tomorrow's events at www.trackenterprises.com.
