Does anyone want to blast NHRA for postponing the conclusion of the Dutch like we did for IHRA extending the World Finals last weekend?

When the sun goes down this time of year at the Grove the dew is a big time problem. I just got home from there and my brother is still in the 4th round of S/C when they called the race until Monday. I guess safety was on there minds for the racers.

I think that was Bowman's tongue-in-cheek point.

Chris,
I would like to commend NHRA for halting the action. I've raced at MG for years and when the sun sets this time of year there is an amazing amount of moisture. My windshield has fogged over many times, in fact i once remember pre-staging, then wiping the windshield before rolling in. Evan

Any car faster than about 15 seconds would be at risk with a track as wet as MG on an Oct. night. Its bad enough in the summer. Racing Monday beats crashing Sunday.

That is just the way it was a the rock. I think it was a good call and probably saved a lot of race cars as did the rock on their dicision.both should be recomended.!
