muggsWe are here, rain is a pain. They aiming to give 1 time run in morning then into main event, original separate $10k into single $20k. If time/weather permits the shootouts will run after.

HR3377I'm not there but an entry is that's in the same garage as me is, Sunday looks alot better than Sat right now, why run it as a combined 20K race on sat? Try to run saturday too, do they have a curfew? If not start the shootouts after the 3rd or 4th rd of the regular race (Sat). If a curfew split it when the time comes.

ferndaleflyerThanks Chris. You are just across the river from me, oops that’s the track. I woke up at 6 and it’s been pouring the whole time. Don’t look good for racing but 2 of my grand daughters are coming from Tampa to see me race, or hang out in the rain. It’s all good and I feel bad for Rob. Just watched local weather and they said this will continue until the afternoon

ferndaleflyerHe still had 2 in when I hit the bed. You were all hanging in there. I blew the horn when I passed and wondered why you were parked there. I suppose you are still on the road as I just now walked in the house. I had a good time, my car was good, but I couldn’t drive a billy goat and it was raining to much to go eat and visit. Sure glad the rain left and Rob got the race in. Those track people got worked to death, what an effort.

I nearly broke my monitor when you gave the stripe back.

However, if you enjoyed yourself, that is exactly what matters. I think I know the answer, but I have to ask, would you do it again? Take care. Tom Worthington
If it seems that bracket racing has gotten too expensive for you, maybe you are just doing it wrong.

fuzzy diceIt was good to see you again Fern...they tried everything to race on Friday and Saturday but the weather just would not cooperate...the sad part is this is our dry season down here...lol...I was pitted under the grandstands...
After watching it rain for three days I finally was ready on Sunday...took my time run and then it happened...I took my scooter to use the restroom and....BAM!....I hit a wet spot and went flying...messed myself up real good...I had to leave and go home...I felt real foolish and I now have a giant shiner and knot on my head...sheesh...oh well...I hope to be ready to race on the 11th in Orlando...
