Unfortunately, mother nature did not cooperate on the morning of our race.  Salute would like to thank the Tollway for quickly evacuating the Tollway before the severe weather hit.  Their decision was made in the best interest of all involved and we are very thankful that no one was hurt when the strong winds, rain and lightning came through!!!
