Div 4 points meet
The weather looks very wet this weekend at the NHRA Division 4 points meet at Baytown. Am I the only one concerned about being stuck in the Baytown mud? Friday 90% chance of rain. Saturday 0% that sounds great! Sunday 56%. I’m hoping things change for the better.

Re: Div 4 points meet
Saturday looks clear. Between Friday's chances, Saturday and Sunday even if rain is forecast. Maybe the race can be run. We don't have a lot of choices with so many tracks shutting down. I would hate to stay home and miss a race that close.

Re: Div 4 points meet
Victor, the muddy conditions are exactly what I’m talking about. It is widely known j what happens when the pits get wet. Factor in how much rain hit that area in the last week. This makes for a soggy mess. After given much consideration, I’ve decided not to go to this event. I’m wishing everyone who attends this race, to have a great time with drier weather conditions.

They canceled the national open last November for less.

Re: Div 4 points meet
Good point about pit conditions. We may be making a big mistake by going but we don't have a lot of chances to race this year. We'll see if it's a bad decision or not. John may be making the right one.

Re: Div 4 points meet
Right now there is a lot of pavement room, & the grass areas are dry. Rain chances are down some until Sunday, come on down

Re: Div 4 points meet
Based on this, watching Comp alone would be worth the trip…

Re: Div 4 points meet
