    Didn't they already cancel it once this year or was that a different event

        You're probably thinking of the Earl Hill Memorial at Tyler Co. They've had a boat load of rain outs and tonight isn't looking good.

          Thoughts on the makeup conflicting with Eldora?

              It's not relevant. At all.

                  Portsmouth opening night, topless 50 at Tyler County, eldora and midway. That's four races within 3 hours of me and I'm sure theres a few more.

                    With Tyler County running their big show, Portsmouth opening up and Eldora... I am very surprised they did this. Gibby who apparently runs this whole Jim Dunn Memorial, always talks about tracks needing to work with each other and respect each others schedules... and then he pulls this!! Won't be nearly as good show now, cuz cars will go elsewhere!

                      There will be enough cars at all of the tracks to have a full field for the feature so it really doesn't matter. The Johnny Appleseed isn't supported anywhere near as much as it used to be anymore, Tyler and PRP would have only gotten their normal fields of cars regardless, and Midway is paying the most money so the guys who were planning on racing there will be back on Sunday. At this point there have been so many rainouts that any makeup date would conflict with something else at this point.

                          I love Tyler County but they won’t get a full field tonight. Most of the regional guys that run Tyler’s bigger races will go to Midway (Dohms, Hawkins, Carrier, Carpenters). I expect Tyler to have about 15 cars.

                            The topless race at Tyler is a reschedule from a previous rain out.

                              Midway canceled for today as well.

                                That race belongs at Ohio Valley IMO. When the Jim Dunm was there a couple years ago it was wildly successful, and in this business there's no reason to mess with success.
