Default No DA%# Excuses VII Fall Classic

Rick Kim of RKT Performance, Robz and I will be hosting a rental at MIR on Friday, 11/16/18. This may be your chance to run a PB at a great facility. (Numerous records have been set!) Historically, weather is very good this time of year and the track prep is always outstanding. Rob and I will be available to assist anyone who would like some help. Details are to follow.

Cost will be $175/person/car and we will need your non-refundable $100 deposit to secure your spot.

This will be an exclusive private rental of the track having both lanes.

Rick will be providing burgers again at this annual event.
We would like to thank him for his generosity.

********************As Rick stated below, we decided to cancel since the track may not have been ready until later in the afternoon based on the current and forecasted conditions.
Best case would have been 1:00 pm and more than likely sometime between 2:00 and 3:00 pm.
No sense to race for possibly 2 hours.

I was able to get a rain date of November 30th.
If you are unable to attend, you can either sell your spot or ask for a refund.
I would need to know ASAP.*********************

WEATHER UPDATE:
As of 8:00 am (11/14/18), rain forecasted starting tomorrow morning and ending in the early morning hours on Friday.
The rest of the day should be sunny with highs around 48*F.
I have been in contact with MIR on Monday and we will talk again Thursday night.
Based on past experience, the excellent staff of MIR was able to get the track ready after a heavy rain.
There may be a delay in the start time should this occur.
Please arrive early so we can have our track meeting and have everyone checked in.
Note: This may be a game day decision on whether or not we race.
See everyone there.
Drive safely.
