Entry fees can be refunded or rolled over to the new dates.\r\n\r\nMore rain is expected in the area this week.","excerpt":"<p>Major flooding in Lincoln County, Nevada and the potential failure of the Echo Dam has caused Legacy race officials to &hellip;<\/p>","date":"March 21, 2023 04:29","categories":[{"id":25047610,"title":"Desert Racing","slug":"desert-racing"},{"id":25047612,"title":"News","slug":"news"}],"tags":[{"id":25048320,"title":"flooding","slug":"flooding"},{"id":25047901,"title":"Legacy Racing","slug":"legacy-racing"},{"id":25049212,"title":"lincoln county","slug":"lincoln-county"},{"id":25047736,"title":"off-road racing","slug":"off-road-racing"},{"id":25047758,"title":"postponed","slug":"postponed"},{"id":25049211,"title":"vt construction battlegrounds","slug":"vt-construction-battlegrounds"}]},{"id":6301,"permalink":"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/2023\/01\/11\/severe-weather-postpones-oakland-supercross\/","title":"Severe Weather Postpones Oakland Supercross","content":"Round 2 of the Supercross Championship was set for this weekend in Oakland at RingCentral Coliseum.

The friendships, socializing, and shared experiences gained along the way are some of the greatest take-a-ways that racers get at NORRA events. Without the parties, and nightly celebrations, it just won\u2019t be the same Mexican 1000 that everyone loves. We would also be very disappointed if some of our more experienced racers were prevented from attending due to health concerns. We have so many Hall of Famers, Icons, and just plain human treasures involved with NORRA that we just can\u2019t do without them. Despite the best minds in the world throwing everything possible at finding solutions to the pandemic, the word that comes up the most is uncertainty.
