OOPS! Bad Weatherman! Bad!

The Cave Speedway apologizes for believing all the weathermen when they were calling for "a very dangerous ice storm"!! They made it sound like it was a done deal and so we were trying to make a decision that would be in the best interest of those of you who travel long distances. Unfortunately, the weathermen were way off on their forecast. We are sorry for any inconvenience this cancellation caused you. This track promoting business is harder than it looks! See you next Friday!!
