Atomic and Brownstown postponed

[bleedblue55]

I rolled the dice and cancelled my room in Chillicothe this morning. Guess that turned into a good decision real quick.

What a crock of crap. I sat in 28 degree weather at LaSalle (IL) Speedway a few years ago for the Thaw Brawl. Too cold please... People should learn to dress for the weather... A coupld of years ago when Tim Keithly ran Brownstown it rained hard as he!! earlier in the day and they still ran the Indiana Icebreaker... He just sold the teams bales of hay...

Just because you can or will doesn't mean the next 25 people is line will do the same.

ha. 2002 Full grandstands and cold as sh!t there for the same race. Please I knew of at least 20 people just from my area going to watch that doesn't include the guys going to race.

Is the Friday before the Jackson 100 now a complete Lucas points paying race?

Yes.BQ......7K to win though

It wasn't that cold then, not nearly. Be thankful that common sense prevailed on these races! Getting sick and freezing is not a good thing.

I bet you own a kerosene heater. lol And full Eskimo gear~~!! No people should learn to deal with the bad weather and live to race another day. hahahhaha You go to 28 degree races? I really believe it though!!!

[Clayton_Wetter]

So the race is called, "The Ice Breaker" but it's being called for, being too cold....
There is irony in that somewhere.

Maybe rename it The Black Ice Breaker?? hahahaha More appropriate.

[Clayton_Wetter]

Yes, it will be a points race but they cut it to 30 laps and $7000 to win. Then they cut the Jackson to $15,000. Can't figure that out. Why couldn't they schedule it for Thursday like they did the Ralph Latham last year?

I really really don't like these moves. Cutting both events, sadly.

Seems to be happening more and more these days.

I remember that night as well. It was below freezing when I left the track. Coldest I've ever been at a race track.

Hate it got cancelled for those that were planning to go but...

The cancellation added another race for me in April.

Atomic, Sharon, Hagerstown and Port Royal.

Four new tracks for me and my crew!!

[TS FAN]

Cold and rainy simply not a good recipe for a dirt track race. The promoters had no choice IMO. Interesting reschedule decisions

Yep, no matter how you slice it.....Brownstown lost a Lucas date and the Jackson purse is cut.

I'm all for a Steve Barnett race on the Friday of the Jackson but would have preferred if that was an addition to the originally planned Saturday show/purse and a rescheduled date for the Icebreaker.
