Saturday featured a little controversy about the mid-afternoon
point when race officials unexpectedly announced that because of complaints
from racers about excessive wind at the top end of the track, the race
would be changed to a 1/8-mile event for that day only. This provoked

the decision was reversed and the day went off safely without a hitch.
