Re: What tracks are open?
The TX governor had a news conference this afternoon and specifically mentioned "motorsports racing" as being opened at weeks end.
He also mentioned social distancing and wearing masks.
He also mentioned 5 counties in the state that would stay in lockdown for at least a couple of more weeks.
Those are 4 counties in the TX panhandle where there are several meat packing plants and El Paso county and I am not sure the reason for its delay.
I live in one of the panhandle counties and the total employee testing of one of the meat packing plants who employs large numbers of people was tested a little over a week ago.
Of the 3700 plus employees tested at the one plant 1500 plus tested positive with many testing positive which did not have any symptoms.
That is a little concerning for me at my age.
It looks like TX is back in business for racing soon.
Amarillo Dragway will just be a few weeks behind the remainder of the state.
