    NOPI deserved to be rained out. IFO doesn't. Big Difference.

    lol

    The good thing is Cliff will do his best to reschedule the race if it does rain. No other series will do that!

    Yes, we'll do our best to reschedule if it's rained out, but HOPEFULLY weather forecast will be OK. 30/40% isn't so bad. There have been several IFO events with those forecast amounts. Last year had to be canceled because it was 80% forecast for the entire day, and it did rain/mist the entire day.

    If the weather is questionable on the morning of the event, call the IFO voice mail for event status, 225-247-RACE (7223). It will be updated regularly.

    Spoolin isnt affiliated with Mainstream in any way, just a customer/ friend/ supporter of the shop.

    Nopi did nothing, they just wanted to put there name on something and help out, there was no sponsoring.

    its not EVEN about their support at tunerfest LOL. You can call Mr. Meyers and ask him to tell you what he did to a whole drag racing series and its followers and SPONSORS. lol

    ANYWAYS.....

    The forecast can change on a dime, ive seen it a dozen times, we can just hope for the best cause i REALLY want to race because i worked hard to get ready.

    its not god, its ATL drag way that hates them. how many events have you seen rain out at silver dollar? one in the past 6 years and that was last years SEDD track day. whens the last time an import based event did NOT rain out at ATL drag way? like 8 years ago? lolol


    im hoping for good weather cause IFO events kick so much ass, one of the best events of the year for sure.


    ill be there doing photo coverage of the event so if you see me(6ft 4in skinny white dude with a camera and huge camera lens) make sure to do a nasty burnout in the waterbox for me!!!!!

    im bitching and crying because event planners keep holding track events there and expect different results. host an import based track event at commerce and it will rain you out. tell me once in the past 5 yrs that a tunerfest, nopi drag race or import face-off hasnt rained out there. i dont understand why people keep using that track....

    Yes its to late, you cant just bail on a scheduled date with a track even if SDR date is open. There are contracts and all sorts of stuff that goes into getting a track date. SDR is a good location and i do think cliff should move it to there or Carolina Drag Way if this one rains out.

    It didnt rain out at the October Event lol.

    The Forecast can completely change tomorrow or friday.

    IFO does not cancel an event until the very last minute and only if absolutely necessary. Again, if the weather looks questionable ON SUNDAY MORNING, call the IFO line at 225-247-RACE (7223) for event status. The voice mail will be updated regularly. Do not count on the website to have up to date event status as the webmaster is not in office on Sunday. Again, call the voice mail.

    As for location, that has little to do with the weather, people. It's just luck of the draw. If it rains at ATL dragway any certain day, it will most likely be raining at Silver Dollar too. The current forecast is the same for Reynold, GA.
