Title: Racing Dates
Post by: jimwebb on September 16, 2019, 04:22:08 PM

Thanks, Jon
I had on my calendar that WF racing was Oct1 - Oct4, but I heard a rumor that last day was being dropped. Is there any official word on changes to the schedule? Thanks, Jim.

The SCTA website doesn't say so... drivers meeting and inspection on Oct 1, racing will happen on Oct 2 - 4.

SCTA official website says 'DRY and HARD'... 
Just hope that the weather doesn't change.

Hey hey HAY!  Is there anything going on at the salt?  I don't see fresh posts here or the SCTA Facebook page, but I do see a pretty good chance of rain tonight and tomorrow.

What's the status, somebody?

It looks like standing water on the salt - from the weather camera that you can access via the USFRA website.

I guess the event is shortened by ALL the days. Bummer for all the brave souls heading there.
