"Live" from Atco,NJ-PC Richard National Open

Jack Matyas · 04-01-2009, 07:49 PM

Well boys and girls here we are parked and ready to go but like they used to say on TV- "what a revolting developement" this is -- you guessed it -- rain and big time rain -- good news is that its supposed to clear out during the night and not lose tomorrow .Bad news is that more rain is being forecasted for Friday .After that Saturday and Sunday look terrific at this point .Everyone is crossing their fingers and hoping that the first D1 race of the season gets off on time .I'll try and keep you posted.......For those of you coming in Stock and SuperStock are pitted on the Atco SpeedShop side of the track .

Sam -- If you're coming in tomorrow you shouldn't have any trouble finding a great spot on the asphalt -- not more than 25 to 35 trailers here tonight...........

FOG ! ! But at least the rain has quit - here's the weather just outside my window -- 58 degrees , humidity a whopping 70% , barometer at 29.88 and steady , grains of water at 52 , vapor pressure is .35 with a final DA being 549 .Still plenty dark here but gates will open in a few minutes with a long line of racers waiting to get in and stake out their pit spots . Today will consist of Tech , test n tune , and some brave souls will make Record attempts .Stay tuned ..............

PS - With this much fog I don't think we'll hear the Jet for a couple of hours .

Kenny Meile -- Hope you're reading this as you are on Camera Duty this weekend , mine is sitting on my office desk - right where I left it .Go figure - I remembered bananas for my Cheerios , packed all my Meds but no friggen camera .

Update 8:50 est -- Pit gates just opened -- track dryer not yet running -- conditions damp at best - fog starting to lift -cloudy and overcast skies .
