Thats the way most tracks operate. If the race is rescheduled due to weather and you can't make it that day, it's your tough luck.

They are giving you a show, unfortunately you can't make it. Happens all the time. Most tracks have the policy that if it rains, your ticket is good for one of the next 2 races. They don't give refunds. The only time I have ever seen a refund given is if the race is not rescheduled.

NASCAR has a race on Sunday, rain forces them to postpone until Monday. You cant stay because of work. Would NASCAR give you a refund, NOPE! It's not the tracks fault your work schedule doesn't allow you to go. It's not ridiculous, and it's not the Miley's fault. Few years ago the firecracker was rescheduled I think to a Tueday. Lots of people couldn't return.

I'm glad you guys agree. Maybe when you're done with work he can bring the Budweiser and you can bring the "good stuff" Mr. Toker. And together you guys can whine and moan about everyone who has done you wrong in life.

last weekend at motordrome for the piney 5 scheduled for sat. it started raining at 6:30 am.Stan and hispeople kept checking the radar saw about when the rain would stop,and went on with the show.Practice was 3and a half hours late due to track drying,but the show got the green flag at 8 pm only one hour late.Hats ff to stan and his crew for not canceling and doing everything on sunday.To bad the cold damp weather kept the stands empty but for the couple hundred that showed they saw a good show.Scares me to think mileys might take control of motordrome over next season.If they cant run one track now what will happen with two .I know its apples and oranges,dirt vs.asphalt but just sayin.

if it was legit and wash out yesterday i would agree too much crying. but there was zero. ZERO. rain last night. the days of track promoter getting away with calling race rainout. is over everyone has smart phones and can look at radar. something some track owners seem to not bother doing. and you cant tell me the racing was cancelled last night for anything other than to make more of a profit today. 5 more dollars to get in. spend 10 hours at track to get your money worth today. people who bought one day pass. got hosed. holding out hope for more cars to show today. so can make more $$$$$. the whole thing is a total cluster luck. and as much as the Mileys act like they are great people. the whole thing is bullshit. a real sorry ass way to do business.

Just gotta say, it rained at Sharon 3-4 hours friday afternoon. Well into their regular racing time, they held off, said they were gonna do whatever it took to get it in and they did. And they had absolutley no parking left for doing so. Props to Sharon for sticking it out and racing for the people who already drove there. Unlike PPMS where they got your money and cancelled, Sharon didn't take a penny of anyones money until they knew they were racing for sure. Huge props to them on a successful weekend of racing.

Come on now this is ppms do you really expect to get your money back? In fact you should be expecting a bill in the mail from Matt Miley for the time the great one hasn't spent replying. Plus a charge for all the $5 chicken sandwiches he's eaten while hiding behind the police last night. Ooooh and a security charge too! Why not?! So that all comes to about 10,000. They gotta pay Satterlee somehow.

Eldora does their best to get races in. I have been there when they have started late at nite and we were there till the wee hours to get racing in. I think the Miley's just made a bad judgement call or something. But lesson learned-if it's a threat to rain, don't buy the ticket until you're sure they are going to race. Was out for the Jook George. The mayor and I sat in the parking lot waiting. I urged him to wait 20 more minutes, but he heard engines roaring so we bought the tix and went in. For it to rain out! Luckily, we were able to use tix toward Pgher tix. And since they are racing in October, you should be able to use your one day pass for that.

Sorry people but i think somebody told Matt Miley to stay off the message board... but he can post advertisements for future races if he wants... which do you want? I personally would like to see an owner or promoter come on these message boards and express his opinions (though some of matts might be a little bit far fetched) its still good that he takes time to do so. And as far as a refund tough shiz you should have made the show and got your moneys worth if you didnt have time to make it sell the damn ticket to somebody that could.... Just saying
