I am guessing that is where the drain pipe comes out from the track. Looks like you definitely have the drainage working pretty well. I was surprised by the lake when I was leaving and the short amount of time that it took to get like that.

Default OVER KILL

Listen Jason Iam sure your parents told you if your going to do a job then do it right. But three inches is just too MUCH, and whats with the tornado that does nothing for the track. I mean you brought the rain no sence in blowing the track off after that. And timing is everthing, iam preaty sure you were asked to stop by between heats not three days early. Well on the other hand iam sure this is a new skill for you and you problay havn't worked out all the bugs. So pratice a litttle more, maybe you should stop by some baseball games lets not try anymore tracks till youv'e got this down. see you TR

Exclamation Rut row!!!!

Picture it, sunny afternoon. I'm cutting the grass. All is well. Then, I see the Jasonmobile roll in. At first, I freeze, but wait---the sun is still out.
"Whew" I thought. "that was a close call. No rain!"
Then, it happened. Within seconds of arrival, the clouds rolled in, the rain started, and the winds kicked up!!
We waited it out. Then, just as we are about to leave----HERE COMES THE HAIL!!!!
I LOOK AT jASONS TRUCK AS IT GOES DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, AND IT IS STARTING TO ROCK (I think he did this just for some fun for the kids)
I don't know about you, but I am starting to think Jason has some powers , and....
I AM ASCARED!!! LMAO
Other than that, everything else seems O.K.
We will be closed this afternoon to take G to the hospital for his procedure.
Jack and I will probably be out at the shop afterward. Give us a call or stop by.

I thought you were bailing hay, not mowing the grass.

Yes, it was hay. When the lawn mower is out of commision for 2 weeks (and there is no other way to cut it) it tends to grow fast with all of the RAIN. Just sayin'.
