It seems as though you want them to cancel early.  One of the praises of TM that I read on this board is that they get the show in when other tracks won't chance it, i.e. they don't cancel early.  The locals appreciate that, I imagine, so I hope they don't bail early and hurt the reputation they're building with those that attend regularly.

 

Nobody wants to get washed out, but those traveling any distance, great or small, will have to weigh risk vs. reward.  All part of deciding to follow a series instead of racing in your back yard, I suppose.
