Live from Houston
I won't attempt to do an official Live from but will post when I can. Maybe others will add to this. It started raining last night about 3:00 am. Rained pretty hard for a while think it stopped about 6:00am this morning. They started stacking at 8:00 this morning on the shutdown area of the track. Got here about 8:30, about 15 or so in line. Almost 10:00 probably 30-35 in line. I think original plan was to start parking us this afternoon. Now looking like we will spend the night on track and park in the morning. I'll try and post a few photos and hopefully someone with more computer skills than me will add to this thread. Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA

Re: Live from Houston
AcuAeather app on my phone shows heavy storms today at Baytown. Thought this morning I would go on down there, until I saw that. The grassy Sportsman parking areas are likely very soft. Don't need my motor home stuck. Hate to miss seeing everybody.

Re: Live from Houston
I guess a postponement probably makes too much sense......Maybe with the reduced entries we can all park on the pavement?????.....

Re: Live from Houston
Ed I realized this morning I haven't been pulled out at Houston in ten years, then I remembered that I haven't been to Baytown in ten years!

I got up this morning thinking I should just go on down there, until I saw another weather forecast. Guess I'll sit here, wishing I was there.

Re: Live from Houston
Don't you forfeit your entry if you don't go?

Re: Live from Houston
Lots of people parked already. Ground is suprisingly firm. Sun is out. Tech is open. Looks like today and most of tomorrow will be good days.
