***In the interests of safety, the drag racing portion of today’s Gainesville event has officially been canceled due to the inclement weather. Track staff has tried, but is unable to dry the track with current conditions of rain and mist. All other event activities (car show, rev battle, burnout contest, stereo competition, limbo, etc) are still on schedule! Racers, keep your arm bands/tickets for free entry and race into any future Import Face-Off (standard rain voucher policy as with all outdoor events). Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you to those who are understanding of the situation. We have no control over the weather.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
If an event is completely canceled after gates have opened, spectators can use their arm band for discounted or free entry (depending on what time of the day event is canceled) into any future IFO. If event is canceled before eliminations begin, racers will receive free race admission into any future IFO. If a race is canceled after the first round of eliminations, payouts are split evenly with those left in the competition. Trophies for each class will go to the fastest racer of the last round. Once gates have opened, there are no refunds. This is standard policy for all outdoor events (motorsports or baseball) not just IFO. Do not come to an IFO event if you do not agree with this policy. If gates never open, complete refunds will be issued within 48 hours to all who purchased on-line tickets in advance.
