A real sit down meal.

When they made the decision to not run today it kind of shot them in the foot. 20 minutes later the sun popped out humidity left cool breeze and everything dried up quickly. Perfect racing weather. They have pushed this race to Sunday. A lot to get done now.

Verses, NHRA skipping ALL Class Run Offs at the Sportnationals last year with the same kind of issue. That track gets damp at night after an all-day rain. After dark they always end up shutting everything down before someone stuffs their ride. NHRA just chose to skip class instead of using the "rain out day" as its intended purpose. Everybody left Saturday instead of using the rain out day... Remember that? We were furious.
