Sorry guys.  But I don't think the Wife and my mother would appreciate me driving
down to race on Sunday.  Especially since I will have driven up there 2 days prior.

I do love racing there...  I am really bummed about it.

Everyone have a rocking good time!

Smash some of that Big Ring!!!  Its an awsome place to do it!

I'm more concerned about wind than rain.  A whopping tree fell across the Beginner trail last night.  Gonna take a good sized chainsaw to get it out...

[BACKSLIDER]

yeah.....they are calling for bad winds too. I guess we need to keep our fingers crossed

[Smitty]

Just watched the news and it looks like it will be good weather for the racewith little chance of rain...
