Wind report shows it’s blowing about 13-15 mph. Would that be enough to cancel?

As of a couple hours ago it was still a go. We’re going back n forth about heading down.

The app that’s televising it initially stated going live at 8:50 and now just got pushed back 11:20

Jesus if it is, whoever is making that decision at 13-15 is a sissy ass bitch.

At speed....A steady wind can be planned for, elevated wind gusts not so much. Lots of variables for the promotor to responsibly consider and be accountable for. Spectators and participants getting injured or worse make for bad publicity for all involved.
Better safe then sued in this day n age.

I'm looking at course now. Spectators are filling in. Wind has slowed a bit. Steady no gusts.
Course is clear, patrols are out.

I'm thinking someone is going any minute

Who set the camera angle on Victory Plus lol. The whole screen is the run up with about 100’ of the course.

I had to come here to figure out what happened.

By the sound, the engines cut out real quick.
