Some big storms rolled through, and then more followed, but I haven’t heard if that was the reason.
Track was rated -2 in the last race that they ran.

Prolly a weather related power issue.  6th was sloppy and I caught a message on their feed "races cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control"

Or, he quit, and said he was with someone who tested positive.
