I can't remember the exact year that the top end of the track was under a foot of water. Porta- toilets were floating around like little blue boats. But we were racing the next day. This year the ground is already soaked from rain over the weekend. A couple more inches today and a 60% chance for more rain tomorrow. Doesn't look like they will be parking Sportsman racers early in the moring.

Bruce may be right, they usually wait out the rain and let it dry up a little before they start parking us.

We on earth can not do anything about the weather, the forecasters seem to error on the side of bad than a chance of good weather. That being said, I would gladly get stuck and have a wet pit spot, to stand in the winners circle . Someone is going to win this event, wish I could be there.

When it comes to most things and especially weather, yes I am a glass half full guy.

Good luck to all, see you next week

Re: Raining in Maple Grove
 
HEY DAVE, EVEN IF YOUR GLASS ISN'T HALF FULL, AT MAPLE GROVE, YOU CAN JUST LEAVE IT OUTSIDE AND THE RAIN WILL FILL IT!

(Sorry, I couldn't resist making the joke; it was just there for the taking. Actually, I have spent my fair share of time in the rain there, tracking in the red mud. I wish all of the racers a dry event.)

Greg, or it would be snow and leaves falling in your area, Good one

Re: Raining in Maple Grove
 
Yes Dave ur right bout the weather and im sure
Us Sportsman racers would sacrifice some things
To have our butts in the winners circle.

I swear all of the rain this track gets for it's major events is a result of bad karma because of the way they've treated racers over the years..... This goes all the way back to the George Case days....:rolleyes:
