World100 raindate

**TS FAN** · 09-06-2018, 03:44 PM

I can tell you what year it was. 1990. Multiple trips and then I wind up not being about to see it when it ran in mid Oct. The thing was that the second trip everything was looking OK and then after the second heat, rain washed everything out. 1990 was a horrible year for dirt car races too boot

Its Not if it will rain but how MUCH it will Rain..

Wish someone developed a tarp system to roll out with like a 550 tractor, I know its not a fix all but it would be a good start...

But don't make any bets on three nights of racing, or I'll take you up on it, Oh please, yes!!!

Sure you wouldn't rather they just build a huge roof?????

I asked at 5pm what the rain date policy was, and according to the staff at the ticket office it is the next clear day. I asked if no Sunday than is it Monday and i was told a definite yes. I needed to know to cover my a$$ with a vacation day.

Does anyone know for a fact, if this race is ran on Monday, would it be a day race or at night?

Due to 2 national touring series, they may have to this year. There are no free weekends from here to DTWC.
