Can you say "Rain Delay"?

NMCA cancelled their race last weekend in Bowling Green, Kentucky on Thursday as the weather forecast wasn't looking too pretty. Good idea......





The river that runs behind the campground/amusement park next door to the track has overflowed it's banks. Yes....the MPH part of the scoreboards are under water.





Drag boat racing anybody?

We were planning on working this show, I'm sure glad they cancelled it because you are definitely not able to get out of that park in any kind of a hurry!

Dallas and his crew are great people and I really hate to see this happen to the facility. Sent him an email saying how sorry we were about this and if there's anything we can do please let us know.

I added a "PS" to the email.......asked him, "What time does Blown Alcohol Hydro qualifying start?" He answered, "12:30....like always."

 

[bolted3v]

[rford426]

Damn that fucking blows thats funny you said that bout the drag boats...Hopefully it'll all workout for him in the end

 

[don_w]

That's crazy... they might need to rename that place to: Beach Bend

 

[US-1]

The river is supposed to crest today. There's another pic somewhere that shows the water up to the bottom of the walkway crossover in the staging lanes. That's 15 feet high.

 

[rford426]
