Well, tonight is the conclusion of the four-day #KnoxvilleNationals, aka the Super Bowl of #Sprintcar #racing

Based on the #IAWX forecast of TS and possible +TS in the area today and tonight, it will be a MIRACLE if this event is not cancelled.

The track prep crew at Knoxville is best in the country, but too much rain means too slick of a track, and 900+HP, 1,400 lb. race cars do not do well on slippery surfaces.
