Despite the rain Mudd Bogg went on as scheduled…..and the spectators were there to watch.

Coordinator Eric Boland confirmed all the racing was completed. The event went on despite the rain.

“We had some diehard mud racing fans out there. It rained a little bit, a few of them left, then they came back when the rain stopped.  They hung out in there maybe until 5 o’clock. They just stuck it out and stuck it out. It was great.” Boland added a big crowd was in attendance for the beginning of the racing at 1 p.m.

Additional racing activity continued through the evening on Saturday until about 9:15. Fans stayed in the rain to watch.

One vehicle rolled over and another sustained some front end damage during the competition, but there were no injuries. Boland noted the drivers take all the necessary safety precautions ranging from neck braces and helmets to seat belts and fire suits.

Mudd Bogg raises funds for Sundown Salute. The total raised should be known early next week.
