Red face Re: Live from Maple Grove-NHRA Toyo Tire Nationals

6:30am EST-- Things were going real well last night 'till around seven when it suddenly got darker and soon enough it came -- boomers and the wet stuff - really put a damper on the evening .Seemed like most folks didn't care as they were pooped anyway -- the hot sun took its toll on most incuding myself -- anyway it was an early ending to a long day .The storm passed after a few hours but its still plenty wet out there with a bunch of fog making visibility at the most 50 yards (see pic below taken out my window this morning ) .

We were to start in a few hours but for sure thats not going to happen - some of this stuff has to burn off first and the weather report has the possibility of more bad things today .Wish I had better news to report - I'll get back in a bit -- maybe things will get nice - or not ............................

BTW , I know we were kidding around with parking stuff yesterday but I've got to tell you -- can't remember ever seeing this much grass in the back lots without rigs parked on it -- there really is plenty of space left -- maybe sometime soon the NHRA will recind the excluding one class at every race rule as there is room this weekend for Supercomp whose turn it is .Money talks and they need it............
