It has been sunny on and off all day. We had a brief shower about 1 1/2 hours ago. Sunny again, now. Hard to call it at this stage of the game. I will be posting tonight and again early tomorrow morning. Going to check the weather on NOAA. It is usually right on the money with their radar.
Let's hope for the rain to go to Texas, where they really need it!

We had a couple of showers today but not much rain... some really crazy weather... hot spurts with blazing sun and overcast with periodic rain. If it doesn't rain tonight we might be able to pull off the races tomorrow since its only calling for a 1/10 of an inch of rain for the entire day around 6pm. If we do race we will most likely start at noon or later. I will post in the am on the status. We have to blow some water away and put some saw dust down on the overly saturated areas. Cross your fingers.

Thankfully it didn't rain last night. Racing will begin at noon today. Practice/Registration from 10:30 till 11:30. The track is saturated nicely in many parts... some parts too saturated, so we are gonna hit those spots with the saw dust to suck up the moisture. 30% chance of small shower at 3pm, 6pm and 9pm for a total of 1/10 inch of precipitation total for the day. Bring extra batteries and I have extra chargers available so we can keep the rounds flowing straight through, just in the case the forecast is wrong.

The track is dusted and should be prime by practice time. Races start promptly at noon.

Hey G, I have some website decals made for you, but unfortunately, I won't be able to make it down to the track. Yesterday and today were the first days we were able to mow at the golf course, and naturally, the boss is making us work. We took a small break to watch some 9-11 stuff on tv, and now heading back out.

I'll bring everything with me for the cash race on the 17th. Hopefully mother nature cooperates.

Thanks Rick. Looking forward to seeing you then. I know what you mean about mowing, do it while you can. lol
I watched some of the 9/11 Memorial coverage also. Heartbreaking.
Take care, Robin

made it out to G's today for the first time to run some mod SCT and had a blast. Track was a little muddy in practice but not bad at all considering the 10+ inches of rain we had is PA this week, I was just glad to be racing! I thought the track layout was fun, i enjoyed being able to do all the jumps with the sct and am looking forward to making it down again sometime soon!

Glad you had a good time. We are having racing this Saturday and Sunday. The weather is supposed to be beautiful but, time will tell! lol

Saturday is the CASH RACE, and Sunday is a make up race (due to all of the rain). It will be nice to see you again if you can make it.
Thanks Again, Robin

It is supposed to be great weather this weekend! Looking for a good turn out. Just received a call from a guy that wants to sign up and race his SCT 4x4. Hope everyone can make it.
