Title: 4 drivers off the Card at Northfield
Post by: thewizardofwords on December 26, 2025, 06:35:42 PM: I was making dinner and thought I heard that Sugg, Noble, Grismore, and Lems are ALL off for the rest of the card. Anyone know what happened? Seems rather odd.

Pretty sure something similar already happened at Northfield this past Spring. Half way through the card 3 or 4 drivers decided not to go but the rest raced.
