Drivers,

Got this email this morning.

The Central Florida Region wishes to extend it’s regret at the cancellation of your enduro race this past Sunday. Unfortunately, the predicted approach of severe weather, which included a tornado warning, thunder storms, heavy rain and large hail caused Speedway Management to shut the event down in the name of safety.

The fact that these storms did not materialize to the level of severity predicted is not important. If they had struck with the intensity with which airport weather reports indicated, it would have been a very dangerous situation for all participants had we proceeded with the event. Hindsight is always 20-20. The Speedway chose to err on the side of caution and protect it’s employees, facility and you.

We understand your disappointment. Many of you came a great distance and spent many hours/dollars preparing your cars for competition, not to mention the expectation of competing.

Please bear with us, we are developing a plan to compensate your entry fee. We will be contacting you shortly with that plan.

Sincerely,
Robin Langlotz
Race Board Chairman
