Due to the recent heavy rain there is a chance tomorrow’s final night of racing might be cancelled. If the event is cancelled we would like to know if the riders would be ok with racing this Thursday at Floyd Bennett Field ONLY IF TUESDAY’S RACE IS CANCELLED. Please leave a comment if you would like to see the final race this Thursday. I will be out of the country for the next 3 weeks starting Sunday so holding a race next Tuesday would not be possible. I would rather finish the series this week.

All,

I plan on getting to FBF by 4PM the latest tomorrow. At that time I will make the decision if the race is cancelled or not and the status will be posted here. Remember – rain does not cancel the race, only flooding cancels the race.

What I am asking here is IF the race is cancelled would holding the final race THIS THURSDAY be ok with everybody.

Please leave your comments here.

Thanks guys!

no race, or race Thursday…yup race Thursday sounds better.

and I get it, it may take place tomorrow if the water recedes

Great idea! Should be sunny too! Let us hope that will be drained by then since the rain will last through Wednesday.

Bernardo Lube

Thursday is good. In fact, it would be cool if you held a regular Thurs race next season in addition to Tues.

Thurs is good for me toooooooooooooooooooooooo.
it will give me more time to start training.
one of this days im going to start traning.

The reschedule is a good idea, personally I only have a chance at Tuesday, so if there’s a rainout, I am left to conclude that God wishes me to remain third in the FBF GC.

Ridolfo Ceramic

Like others have said, Thursday might be better then nothing, but I am not sure that I can make Thursday.

Larry Hanger

Hell yes on Thursday. And I’ll go to five other computers, grabbing a new name each time, to reiterate.

Gabby

I have a bowling work event with my department on Thursday. Oh well. Thanks so much for a fun season, Charlie, and safe travels!

Loic Rivnut

Yes. Final race of summer in sun would be nice. Why not just change it now and save yourself the trip?

All,

Just got back from FBF and surprsiingly enough there is no flooding at all.

So tonight’s race is ON! I will post another update at 4PM to confirm but as of now WE ARE RACING TONIGHT!

VERY IMPORTANT: Don’t forget we are starting 10 minutes earlier than last week. Here are tonight’s start times:

6:10 = Category 5
6:40 = Category 1-2-3 and Category 3-4

Tonight is the final night of the series and there is double points.

Thanks for your extra efforts Charlie and to Anthony Brakepad for mopping. Charlie deserves all the profit possible for holding this together.
FBF is a Tuesday night race series.
If no race tonight, it could be finished in September, and then maybe both Dan and Chris could be there.
It is less fair to make it on a Thursday.
Double points are also not fair, but that is another soapbox.
Congrats to Frankie on the Series Championship.

Strong wind ( 20+ mph) out of the North. There will be suffering in Brookland tonight my children!! Pray for the sufferers. And if you’re out there suffering tonight. Offer up your suffering in Jesus Name for the sinners in purgatory who can NOT pray for themselves. Amen and Hallelujah!!!

that Schmalz was out at FBF all night with a pack of bendi-straws sucking the water off the course…and he still had something left for the sprint – incredible – 40 is the new 30, indeed.
