What if it is raining?

It depends. We will look at the conditions and post our status on the front page of our website. Look at the “stop light” icon at the bottom right of the first page. Typically, we will run our schedule unless there is thunder, lightning, or water builds up on the track.

If a rain or lightning delay closes the track down for longer than 2 hours, we will close for the remainder of the day.
