Be Safe guys. No potential win is worth hurting the car or you. NHRA sometimes is tempted to push a run or two to "see if it is okay". Then they make the decision NOT to run. The will be another race , another day , another INDY. Thanks for the reports.

The rain did stop for about hour and they were in the process of drying the track. The rain is back now and will be for some time according to the local radar. It is more steady now.

No word on what NHRA plans are for the sporstman. SS still has not run there first round. Stk has run 3, SC has run 4, SG has run 4 and the Comp field is set.

More when I know more...

They just posted the "truncated schedule" which kinda implies they may be considering delaying until next weekend....let's hope they don't have to do that.

I am sure everyone knows by now that we are done for the day. Tomorrow will start with Super Stock weather permitting. We are told if the sportsman do not get to run tomorrow the will run on on Saturday.

Its been fun as always and I can not wait for next year. I will be hitting the road soon, so this is my last live report. If I receive any info I will be sure to pass it along.
