Week 13 of the 56th consecutive season of racing at the Ridge the 5th Saturday in 2023 a wash out.
For Immediate Release BRS-072920231
The FIFTH Saturday of the season sponsored by Montshire Farms succumbs to rain.
Even when watching the weather Radars closely you can’t predict the day. Blue skies in the morning and early afternoon and a less than 20 percent chance of rain said we were going to go for it. And as quick as wink the percentages went up and then down and then back up again. Windows of opportunity opened and then closed. Finally, at about 6:30 pm and torrential rains we were forced to pull the plug on the nights activities even with a window predicted to open after 8:00pm. This is the fifth Saturday, fourth event lost to mother nature of our 56th year of racing. Management will work with the sponsor Montshire Farms to get them back at a later date. Management is also working with DIRTcar reps to try to get the Series race back on the schedule.
We just want to send out a HUGE thank you to those of you who made the trip and stuck with us yesterday. With the RADARs (Yes to you neh sayers we DO Monitor closely) going from one extreme percentage of rain to the other, and having lost four events already this year, we wanted to make sure we sincerely gave it our best shot to get the show in. If there was going to be a window, we wanted to be there to take it. At the end of the day mother nature won again.
For those of you who did come out in the rain please keep your ticket stubs or wrist bands to get in this week.
Enduro teams, please save your wrist bands and we will honor them when you return on August 26th.
Again, we thank each and every one of you who hoped we would get it in and made the trip. It is because of you why we continue to do this. We will see you mother nature willing this Saturday August 5th.
