[dirtfan2757]

Cancelled due to fog.

[dirtfan2757]

Vision was no worse than a dusty track, the problem was there were no more than 50-75 people in the stands.

I like that track but theyneed to step up their effort. There are several FREE ways to put information out to the fans. And they use nothing. People have to check driver websites, read chat sessions on audio broadcast pages to find out what is going on. Ridiculous. Their website has no info on the reschedule and/or cancellation, facebook page no info, and they don't use rainedout.com. It's no wonder no one supports that place on a weekly basis.

It has been foggy all day though. It wasn't going to change.

I don't know how they are going to do all this racing tomorrow when they are calling fo 70% chance of rain during the day and 30% chance Sat. night. I know the fog might roll in later, but it wasn't very foggy at 6:30 when they sent us home. Disappointed

Due to the fact of fog rolling in we asked several drivers and they said that the fog was too thick to race at the speeds they would be going.


We will open gates at 8 am practice at 10 racing to follow.
Then we will do our regular scheduled sat. Night show.
Thanks for the patience everyone

Tonight's cancellation was the biggest bunch of BS, but typical for Frankie and Golden Isles. The fog was nowhere near as bad as it was at Eldora last year and they raced. Redd Griffin knew rain was coming Thurs night yet he still tried to get in a show with a less than packed grandstand because he's a good promoter. Like dirtfan2757 said, tonight's show was cancelled because there was 70-75 people in the grandstands total. We walked in about 15 minutes before the cancellation and of course the ladies at the ticket booth said they were going to race. Frankie had no intention of racing because the track was never even packed in, he saw how sparse the crowd was, and knew he was going to lose his rear. A good promoter would've told his ticket booth to stand by and not let people in until they decided to make a go of it. I guarantee you he would've tried to race if he would've had 1000 or more people in the grandstands. Funny how us few people in the stands could look all the way across the track to the trucks on the outside of the backstretch and plainly see what they were which is at least 650 feet. I live less than 20 minutes from this track, have supported it for every SuperBowl of Racing, but I can promise you Frankie Lloyd has gotten his last $$ from me. Like someone else posted, no communication about what the rainout policy is. Look at the radar right now and see all the yellow on it and Ray Charles could see that there is no way you are racing at 10 am tmrw. Will we be able to use our wristbands from tonight for Saturday night's race if rained out tmrw morning or will you try to tell us tonight's race will be Sunday's race and screw us some more Frankie? Let the 75 or so of us that tried to support you in for tomorrow night's races with these bracelets. It's the least you can do if tomorrow day race rains out.
