The river overflowed its bank during the overnight and submerged the lower level pit area and track under several feet of water in sections.
Utility Quads are the transportation of choice since 4x4 was and ground clearance was needed for moving through the water.
Many vehicles and people are stranded on islands that formed overnight as people tried to move their vehicles to higher ground to avoid being swept away down the river, but it may be sometime before any of the people will be able to leave because the water is around 2 feet deep.
We informed this utility rider that this was a "No Wake Zone" area of the course.
This Dodge pickup got hung up in the mud looking for a place to park overnight, and he wasn't able to get it out before the creek overflowed its banks.
The Racer Productions crew looks on as they have a tractor pull the truck to higher ground, and they were busy trying to figure out how they will deal with the severe flooding.
The majority of the track is several feet underwater, so several miles of the course are being removed and the race will primarily take place on the other side of the road in the hills.
Jeff Russell decided to move the starting area to a new area and the finish line because they are now underwater. The start of the morning race will be delayed a minimum of one hour as the course changes are made before the race.
The Pro Pits weren't immune to the water either as even Bill Ballance's pit area was flooded with water.
Check back for more updates throughout the day as I need to start to prepare for the morning race.
We are now 37 minutes into the race!
