Yep it sure did!!! I was suprised at the size of the crowd too, considering it started raining around 6:15 for about 10 mins.
Sunset had some big rain but the sun is out and they are drying out the track
Did Sunset run last night?
Silverstone You bet they ran. May have rained buckets for about 20 minutes,but Mark,Linda and Steve decicided to wait it out and sure enough it quit raining and the sun shone and low and behold we had a full night of racing. A little windy at times and a little cool but a heck of a show on the track. Real good crowd too. Got a lot bigger as the night went on as diehards from the rained out tracks made their way to sunset.I dont know what it was ,but i cant remember a night of so much side by side racing,2,3 and even 4 wide in some cases. Great call by the new management to wait out the rain and give the fans another great night of racing. See you next week.

Steve: I don't know about the photos but I thought you were going to answer the question in the subject with: "They don't run 100 lappers every Sunday" 😉
My crew took some video of the Chase for the Colours. Peterborough Speedway also sells DVD's of each race the following weekend, so you might want to check with them. One thing is for sure, after that race, there's not going to be many Peterborough cars even trying to make Autumn Colours in the fall with the power house cars of 88, 9, 10 and a few others. I bet the only cars that try are Amanda Connelly (16B), Jamie or Dave Horner (14 / 14B), Tim Burke (99) and Randy Bull (54). Just about every out of town car that showed up had the best cars by a factor of 10. The powertrains alone probably outclass everybody by a wide margin. Amanda and Dave were the only ones that could keep with the leaders. The top 8 lapped everybody by a min of 2 if not 3.
What surprised me was that we only had 2 cautions for the entire 100 lapper and no wrecks and certainly our team was happy with that! It was a really good show and I think the fans liked it.
