rebelracewriter Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 From what I'm reading the show was postponed until today(Saturday) when they will try to run a double show... From Bill "hook" Kitchen Fog canceled the race tonight with 73 USMTS Mods signed in. They are doing 2 shows tomorrow starting in the afternoon. See www.USMTS.com later for official start time. I think it's 2:30... Mods pay $2000 to win in the first show and $3000 to win in the 2nd one. Limited Mods, $700 to win the first show and $1000 to win in the second one.

wheelchair49 Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) Thats the first time I've hear of fog for a race to be cancelled ! But I can see that as a good reason if it's bad enough. Edited February 19, 2011 by wheelchair49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txhotmod Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 The USMTS site has a pic taken from the infield.....it was pretty bad! Years ago at the Mcallen Miller NationaLs the A main was started--bout 5 laps into it the fog rolled bad---from the apex of 1/2 down back shoot to apex 3/4 we were unable to see the cars--Really spooky---They run about 5 or 6 laps like that then it kinda lifted and was still bad but was able to see the cars thru the fog Understand there was real "beatin and bangin" goin down back straight--every man for himself Big AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed demon 7 Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Many years ago the Texas Grand at Baytown, same track, was fogged out on the first day of the race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) This was my view from the infield just as the pulled the cars OFF of the track. They did run the race Saturday afternoon but the fog rolled in about 45 mins. earlier Saturday night than it did Friday night and they rescheduled the second race for March.
