Default Anyone going to Indy?

Is anyone going to Indy for sure or do you think the race will be postponed?

I was going to go, but I can't find my umbrella and enough towels to wipe everything down after it pours. I will take a pass on this one.

I'm there now and the weather was great today (73-75%) this afternoon. The weekend may be another story. The DA was 1817 at 3pm. Not a whole lot of cars yet and first NHRA divisional ever, so we'll see how it goes. The tech guys were nice and helpful and I expected worse from what everyone usually posts on this site.. I'll be running a very slow SS/CA Camaro (3112)

Adios

Drooze, Mandie and I are here.... Drag Pak #24 aka Mega Maniac, survived the test and tune today, and we will just wait and see what happens tommorrow....We took it nice and easy today on our new 5.7 engine as we were already running under the index (for E/SA) without a good tune and we will fix that for tomorrow..

Doug Duel, Randy Warfield, Irv Johns all had their Drag Paks here, and there looked like there were four Cobra Jets too..

Mandie does a great job helping out and doesn't look a bit bad doing it...

I will also second mannymen on the Tech crew... Very helpful and informative....Excellent Crew across the board at Division 3...

We are not going to take the chance. A friend, who lives in Speedway, called me last night and said the local weather forcasters are calling for a deluge on Friday and Saturday. Just had some customers order some pumps and I need to use the time wisely,which does not include sitting in the trailer watching it rain.

Congrats on the survival. Don't let Drooze get carried away in the water box and all should be fine. Good luck tomorrow and let us know what she ran.

Mike is correct I am about 90 miles SE, currently raining and with intermittent exceptions the forecast does not look like it will be a real struggle to get this in. The forecast is not good.
