Live from SGMSP
Well we made the long drive (1/2 mile or so)from the RV park we've been staying at and as you can see it might rain. Hope the parking is good in the pits?

Re: Live from SGMSP
Well I guess being at the race track in the rain, is better then being home with 8 inches of snow.
LOL Good luck this weekend Robbie Cal S/ST HR 1177 |
Re: Live from SGMSP
Thanks Cal it sure beats what you've have up there. Its been a rainy cold windy day here, but the rain has stopped (for now) we've been thru tech and looking around a little. It looks like everyone's park on asphalt, that's a good thing with all rain we had earlier. Here's a few photos.http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/...ursSGMP003.jpg

Re: Live from SGMSP
Well the rain is gone but its still cool 45 and windy. I'm not sure what or when they expect to get down the track but there's a lot of cars here. Here's a cool car.

Re: Live from SGMSP
Well its 1:35 and they just called it for the day which in my opinion is the correct call. Tomorrow the gates open at 8 AM and we start at 9 with S/St.

Re: Live from SGMSP
No problem Claude, when your a racer you have to be a optimist. Well the sun is shining and its going to be a beautiful day for a race. There's a ton of cars here so its also going to be a busy day. Here's a few travel shots from Jackson SC to Cecil GA.

Re: Live from SGMSP
Hey Robbie any quick updates?
Cal S/ST HR 1177 |
Re: Live from SGMSP
Frank, not sure what town it was we took Rt 1 from Augusta all the way to Waycross then Rt 84 to Valdosta so it was on one of those. Well its turned out to be a beautiful day. My first past this morning was not a very good one. 049 10.86 spinning and missing down the track. A new set of plugs a delay box and t-stop adjustment and I felt a little better 031 10.889 but every thing changed the way they should of. We're done for the day and start eliminations tomorrow morning at 9am. Here's a few photos from today. http://i1129.photobucket.com/albums/...aldosta003.jpg

Re: Live from SGMSP
It's another beautiful morning here in South Georgia. The temp is going to be in the 70s and no chance of rain. There's a lot of racing to get through today, they ran 1 round of SC yesterday evening. I did here a dragster crashed yesterday and the driver was OK not sure who or what happened. They changed the rotation' I think its STK, the index classes SS,SG, S/ST ? That will be different to run that late, but the track should be good then.

Re: Live from SGMSP
Robbie, it looks like Lyons, Ga and you would have to have gone thru there if you stayed on us 1.......I'm originally from Vidalia about 6 miles up the road.....Also you should have gone by Plant Hatch the nuke plant probably 15 miles from Lyons on the left and a town called Santa Clause ...Thanks for the reply

Re: Live from SGMSP
Well it turned out to be a beautiful weekend. We made it to the quarter finals before losing, the car ran good and driver did ok. The sad news is the winter racing is over for us we've made our way back to Myrtle Beach for a few days and will be stopping in North Carolina for a couple days. Its been a great trip we've met a lot of great people but we miss the family and especially the grand kids. Here are the photos of the finals.
