Place got flooded pretty bad few weeks ago. My guess is Braun is hiding in Puerto Rico.

The ULMS race at Tyler Co. was rained out this Saturday. It is rescheduled for Memorial Day weekend that was supposed to be the ULMS race at Pennsboro. The only races Pennsboro will see this year are on the cart/mini wedge track.

This sounds like a very reasonable take on the subject.
-
The flood was debris pick up. They wouldn’t have raced if it didn’t flood. There’s not been much work done.
-
That deal is a money pit that just needs to be left alone and let whomever's dream die.
I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.
-
They just announced the re-opening has been delayed until October.😀
-
If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

They blame it on a flood haha. PRP gets flooded every yr, they have no issues opening back up. This place will never open in my opinion. It's always talk a big game and never deliver.
-
The Pennsboro project has been dead in the water for months. I don't know how people still believe it's ever going to happen.

Where did they make a statement/press release?
-
Pennsboro has a facebook page as does Barry and XR. Just a coincidence they announce this when Tyler Co. took their May date.

Pennsboro Speedway posted it on Facebook this morning.

Tyler county pits were flooded and they raced the next week.

Like most things xr related, the schedule and payouts are liable to be changed at any given moment

No kidding. If it wasn't for the fair board stepping in to help, this thing would have been dead long ago instead. They've kept this project on life support with the faintest of heartbeats.
He'll kick the can down the road to next year once he sees how many other tracks schedule on top of his October date. That's an enormous IF the track is in shape and safe to race on.
The bill's finally come due for XR. There's a lot folks in the industry that he's done dirty and they're enjoying this clown show.
-
I've never seen a promoter with more excuses/changes, etc. than XR. It was good for the sport at the beginning when they came in with big races but has turned into a joke because you can't count on anything actually happening. Seems like now that they have these big $100k races for other classes where he is making bank on reserved entry fees and pit stalls that the XRSS has taken a back seat.
-
I remember a certain few members on here calling me out for giving XR crap for originally scheduling on top of the dream a few years ago.
