Hi guys..
I was just informed that the weather forecast is not looking good for the 15th. As of right now it looks like it will be raining on sunday. The track will still be open for those people that still want to chance it and make the trip. But if it rains at all it will probably be to wet to race..
So as of right now, it looks like practice day will be on the 22nd.

I would try the 3 cell setup if your speedo will take it.. and just for every ones info.. a tire with a larger pin and a more spread out pattern seemed to work the best..

I hope to see you there..

As of rigjt now, it looks like a go for sunday...
It just depends on how much it rains between now and then..
So keep your fingers crossed..

Yah, the weather didn't look good for sunday, but the weather man was wrong.. it never rained here saturday night or sunday.. The track was perfect.. in fact.. it was actualy a little dusty by the time we were done running.. LOL

Just keep checking here for updates..
I live 5 minutes away from track and can give up to the minute up dates if need be..
Thats why chuck asked me to keep the thread updated..

Ken,
I'm glad the tire baking idea worked for you.. it is pretty amazing how easy it works.. LOL
