I agree with both ends on this one. If you're going to call it on a forecast, then commit to it and call it on the forecast on Thursday. You KNOW that between the forecast and having Atlanta the same weekend, car counts are going to be bad even if you can get it in. On the flip side, if you're going to commit to trying to run the race, then commit to try to run the race -- wait it out, run what you can when you can, and finish it Sunday. Everybody that made the tow knew that we were going to encounter at least a little rain at some point, but we were all committed to getting the race in. It's a lose-lose. I understand that officials and tracks alike have a very tough job, and no matter what decision is made, it will never suit everybody. Hindsight is always 20/20.
Well, it was a win for me, as I high-tailed it home, dropped the car & trailer, and made it to Ohio by Saturday night to spend the remainder of the weekend with my wife, whom I hadn't seen since the beginning of April!
(She got a job in Columbus, OH and is staying with her aunt while we house-hunt up there, but I can't go be with her until I sell my house here in central NC. If anyone's interested in moving into the heart of drag racing for cheap, PM me!)
