Euro, when the track was dirt I was there and they were racing when the damn sidewalks at the track were sheets of ice. They didn't cancel due to road conditions. They would use a tractor and bulldoze the snow and dirt under the inner rail and race. The only time they canceled was when they couldn't scrape enough dirt off to eliminate the freeze.

Like I said, they've just been lucky -- wait until they see about 1-2 feet of snow on the poly. Tough to scrape the poly without pulling up all the carpet fibers and shards of spandex underwear along with the snow.
