Sorry, but with the threat of rain being what it is, I really need to think of the racers that need to get on the road right now. I just dont feel confident enough to tell anyone to start on their way. So please let everyone else know that may not be on here, no race tomorrow at the 'Grove for us.  boooo

Sorry guys

It was a little too late for a few of us,  Sad  We got there for the T&T last night and the track conditions Sucked  Angry
  You couldn't get a mini bike to hook.. Angry  We got 2 wheel spinning runs in and called it a night and got your post about 9:30. Sad  So we packed it in and came back home.. Sad     
We did run around to a few of the others that didn't get the announcment and filled them in.   Smiley

Hope the next one works out..  Smiley

Thanks Blake for helpin us out, not everyone gets on the forums here. Yea, it sucks, not a way I want to start off a season, but we have plenty of time to reschedule, hell we dont have any racing in September, might be an idea.  hrmm

Again sorry to the racers,

Thanks for the early notification. I was there Friday night and didn't have any hook issues with my slow 12.0 car. There were a lot of street cars which may of attributed to the traction issues for the fast cars.  In 2 out of my 3 runs my opponents staged with their rear tires and had to be backed out. Just before my 3rd pass a street car went into the water box and  dragged water out to the 60' marker.

Sorry I didnt post earlier. I gave it every chance I could for that miraculous 10% number to be shown, but it wasnt to be. Hell after I called it, I still had people pissed saying I made the wrong choice, that I should of waited it out  what
I dont believe 8 years of doing this job I have done anything correctly by everyone's standards......why would I think it would start now?

thanks, nice present

Great job, Rich! Good call!
 Hey, if you hadn't cancelled, it wouldn't have happened anyway since the track was CLOSED.
