It's a 3 day holliday weekend - Plus - D-1 needs to get this race in to settle Jeg's All Star Team points. There is no chance this race would be postponed before it was attempted & won't be called off unless it rained throughout the entire weekend and there was no other choice. The show will go on - even if it is interrupted periodically by showers etc.. and run on an "abbreviated" schedule. That's been the status quo for quite a while... why would anyone think it would be any different?
Show up ready to race & don't count on things going as scheduled. I love Maple Grove.. the track is always good. If I gotta get towed out of my pit-spot when its all over then so be it.... it won't have been the 1st time (or second or third)... See you-all there Sat morning.
