The second one will get you to the Friends of Ellisville Speedway page.
We did update our pages last Saturday keeping the fans informed that we were racing. It is difficult to update our website on race day since one of our drivers does the hosting. If there is rain in the forecast, we will do everything possible to get our race in. Unless the infield/pit area is totally flooded, we try to hold off on cancelling until the last minute.Last edited by Ocala Camper; 08-28-2013, 08:28 AM.

Back in the late 80's early 90's before cell phones and computerts you made the trip all the way to the track,looking for haulers going back the other way.Another option was to stop 1/2 way and call the track from a pay phone,hoping someone would answer...If you made it to the track and the races cancelled,drivers were disappointed but never whined like a bunch of babies.Originally posted by Edm View PostHow did they manage rainouts before computers?
Same thing for fans.

...Or, you called one track from another track's pit office, hauled ass, unloaded in time to get in line for the heat race...Originally posted by oneoff View PostYears ago, if you were a racer you just went to the track. If it did not rain you raced. If it rained you sat around and drank beer and bullshited about racing. Just say'n!
Did this many times between Bradenton and St. Pete when DeSoto first went to Saturday nights...
