Steady rain today along with above average rainfall the last couple weeks has made the track impassible. To dry the track in time it needs warm, sunny weather and that’s far and few between this time of the year. The decision to cancel the October 1st, 2016 event was not easy but the track preparation would have been impossible given the circumstances.
Weather and dirt track racing is somewhat a love, hate relationship at times. Track crews have to constantly adjust to the forecast and conditions to get it right.
The night was set to host three traveling divisions in one show; The Bumper to Bumper IRA Outlaw Sprints, MSA 360 Winged Sprint Car Series and the WDLMA Dirt Late Models for the Checkered Classic remembering Dick Witt & Dick Symoens. The points battle was tight with Scotty Thiel of Sheboygan, WI in the Bumper to Bumper IRA Sprints this year having collected three victories including back to back wins during a weekend main event sweep back in mid-June.
