The Hoosiers are very scary to say the least in the rain. I was unfortunate to get caught in a storm and had to drive 45 miles to get back home.

That's one of the reasons why I didn't even try to come down this morning. I looked at the weather report and decided it wasn't worth the risk, my DR's a pretty worn so driving in the rain is not pleasant.

Ellis, if you need me for driving duties tomorrow or even Monday (should be dry out) let me know, I'd bring it out to you and then I'd just need a ride back up to the shop of course.

It was NEVER going to rain!! I was just kidding, and the "National Weather Service" actually believed me, and predicted it...

Then it was like a snowball rolling downhill .... everyone started to believe it was gonna rain, even RP & our leader Redgar...

I learned never to joke around with the National Weather Service....

The only positive that I can think of that will come of this is the weather will be KILLER and a lot of people will get new personal best times.!!

Slight drizzle up here but it's coming.
At some point today E-town will see enough rain to have needed to shut down and I guess they just didn't want to deal with the rainchecks and half completed eliminations and such. But there is a chance that the CC events could've been completed even before the rains come, especially if fewer cars showed up in the first place (due to the threat of rain).

Very true....

But did you ever see the movie with Mel Gibson "The Conspiracy Theory".... I bet that what that "Evil" Panuzzo Team did, so he would get more track time on his Cartek Tune, and give Jeanne a shot at @ 1 ....

Maybe!

Now here's the bigger question, is Jeanne still racing at Maple Grove today or is that also rained out?
And if so, what if her reschedule/make up date is also on 11/15?!
