I need to read up more on the board track era. There's a YouTube video of a 1910s motorcycle board track race from Cali back in the day. Craziness!



So central time green flag around 450 / 5? Will this even get into the dark? I assume they are running on Sunday cause NASCAR is Saturday night? Bummer that most will be in the light as I like dark, short track racing. Am I wrong that the majority of the past races were at night and on Saturday?
I know next to nothing about the board track era but it sounds nuts. Do you have a link for the YouTube video?

More recently races have been held on Saturday: 2015, '14, '12 and '11, the rest were held on Sunday.
