World 100 - Officially Off For Us the Fans

Reset for 2021. This sucks. The link was disabled after I posted it. Tried to upload a screenshot.

When I made the post Eldora's webpage said the race was reset for 2021. Then the link was not valid. Now the webpage says no final decision has been made. I apologize for the error.

Your link is junk and I see nothing about it on Eldora site

It was up very briefly before taken down.... maybe 5 minutes. Sent it off to a few people, came back and it was removed.

I don’t think anybody should be surprised at the event being cancelled.

I saw a tweet a few days ago advertising Wayne County WoO sprint car event and it said come on out let's pack the stands and pit area full of people.

Sad deal, knew it was inevitably coming. We are wearing these masks and stuff is shut down you'd think this virus would have disappeared a long time ago. smh

Ohio set a record yesterday for most cases diagnosed. Governor was to have a 2:00 speech today, but I haven't seen what he said.

Nothing should’ve been canceled this year. Not one single race.

The thing with that is depending on the lab it could've take 2-3 days or 10-12 days for those results to come back. Same with some death tallies.

As of this moment, there is no status change to the World 100. It is still on the schedule. The window of opportunity to host fans is certainly dwindling but there are still a couple scenarios in play and we are working diligently to explore all options that might become available to us. We fully understand the urgency surrounding getting a decision finalized so that everyone can make plans. Just as soon as any decision is made, we will update via all methods of communication. Thank you as always for your support and patience during this increasingly difficult and frustrating time.

Life goes on and so should racing. And yes my wife and I both have had this over hyped disease. My opinion has not changed. Sports should carry on and people who are worried about getting the disease should simply not attend. No harm in not attending but allow us our freedom to choose.

Great thoughts 👍. Exactly how I feel.

I heard today that Sharon, Muskingum and Midvale Speedways in Ohio have been shuttered due to not following the plans laid out to continue to operate. Has anyone else heard this?

[Onlydirtlate22]

Yes Sharon has been shut down for a few weeks, the county was red level 3. It seems they will be shut down for the rest of the year?Technically I don’t think any track is allowed to race in Ohio, because no gatherings are allowed more than 100 people??? but Attica and Wayne Co still are this week (Attica only pit passes now, similar to what Hagerstown did for a week.)

[Buford.Justice]

You are right dirt cow and TS. This should be in the people's hands. Instead we got snookered by a real political con job.

Er dirt crow I meant. hehe

Curiosity question: what is the Govenor/State of Ohio going to do about fans at Ohio State Football games?
