This just off WFG Facebook page.They say a decision wont be made until at least 2pm or later today if racing will be on tonight and if it's not on tonight it will just be raced over the one night at the time of 6pm.

I applaud them for trying but realistically for tonight more chance of jet boats than Stockies, a day like this would struggle to get the punters in too

I think they'll get it sorted, they've got the gear there to stop the water from settling on the track and if it stops raining by 1 oclock like it's meant to, then I'm sure they can bring the track back, they've done it before.

It doesnt look like the rain is going to fully stop until between 2-3.No chance at all they can get the track fully prepared in 3 hours and if racing was on would it be a good spectacle seeing cars struggling to stay on the track but well see anyway.

It's been canned for today so BOTS now becomes a one night event over 3 races and a shoot out tomorrow night.

Best stump up the cash, purchase a car and we will watch with anticipation for the results. Have stumped up cash, still stumping up cash, dont know when ill finish stumping up cash, well I do..when there is no more cash..like now....luckily its nuts and bolts etc left..and fitting it all together...ex 5C bare chassis, with as much new as possible added to it, all new rims, rotors and willwoods, new griffen 23 x 23, Toyota quad with new cams by Franklin and fitted by DSE, new rings, bearings and bolts. Dry sumped, new gearbox, twin plate, throw out and bell by walford, ( if it ever turns up, dont get me started) pre owned SEQC, new carter, all new dash components and then theres all the stuff you dont know you need ...I can see wehy guys dont wanna wreck their sh-t! |

That's going to be a big night and the start time is still 6pm I guess.

Well, apart from the "Walford" effect, you are half way there. We wait patiently. |

Not a great looking day out there but hopefully it picks up a bit over the day , one thing for sure though I think it will be near close to the coldest speedway meeting I’ve attended tonight

They should be starting at 12.30 then run right through without a stoppage as you are correct spuddy forcast for rain at 8pm that gives them a 2 hour window and with stoppages i don,t really fancy our chances but it is what it is i spose ae

Clouded over again and a few spots every now and then
But feel is that they will give it a go, and everyone will be sitting there with their fingers crossed because it could end at any time
