    Just checked and it's 80% chance from 12noon thru the night! was looking forward to taking my son this year, oh well I'm hopping the % will go down by tomorrow morning
    Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the peoples I had to kill because they pissed me off,

    It looks like the bad weather has shifted to afternoon/evening. Racers, this means rounds might be rushed to get things done early. If you need more time for a quick fix/cool down/etc. to make it back into the lanes for the next round, send someone to the tower to let us know. We can wait if need to.

    Car show contestants, judging may be rushed too, so don't get upset if the judges review your car faster than normal.

    If it looks like the weather might hold off until evening, schedule will go back to normal times.

    Bc it's same format he has been doing for years and I'm sure it cost less than sat event. Either way cliff has always supported IA so everyone try to make it out.

    IFOs are day time events and have always been on Sundays. More shops and competitors can participate when the events are on Sundays because they are usually off work (most shops are still open for business on Saturdays).

    Due to unfortunate events, my blue car will not be in attendance. I will be there helping josh green get into the 10's with his street car if the weather holds out. This really bums me because from the little testing i did, it was a 9 second runout. It will be fixed within the week as the damages are minor but impossible to fix in the next 8-10 hours. If only i had an extra 24 hrs.

    So much for the bounty because i wanted to defend that badly.

    First time in over 3 years that i have missed an entry into an event and i'm tore up about it.

    The forecasts I see are for 80-90% chance of rain starting at 8am..is anybody still going to chance it?

    It looks really bad out there, too bad they have to cancel it.. BUT, hopefully the new date for the event will work as it looks like there were going to be some fast cars out there so I'm looking forward to hearing abut when the reschedule will be..

    For those of you that aren't aware.. You wanna come out and see some fast cars.. check out next weekends NMRA at Commerce.. that is of course if it doesn't rain. :/
