Yeah, it's pouring rain and I am still waiting in line to get in the track. Have been for 3 hours now. ...

Re: "Live" from 2016 Jegs Sportsnationals!
We got detoured off to a side road that runs up to the main gate by the roller coaster. They closed the gate in front of us once myself and quite a few other rigs pulled up, and they're letting in the rigs off the main entrance still. I'm hoping they don't forget us but we've been sitting here not moving for 3 hours plus

As we approach 5 pm it's only raining slightly, they are now pulling rigs into the staging lanes for the evening. There are some serious ponds here as a result of the rain. Tomorrow will be interesting .....

I just talked to Chuck. He got here took one look turned around and is headed home. Any idea what time this race may start tomorrow?
