The lines are starting to move, they are pulling in 25 rigs at a time. Still no rain. They are going to try to park as many as they can.

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
Hi gang - well , I'm in and parked but believe it or not I'm already stuck in the field - up to my rims in mud - it looked OK but I sunk like a rock in a pond .Other than that its going to be a long weekend - tomorrow we don't go down the track until 3pm - maybe I'll hitch a ride to Macy's in the morning and do a little shopping - shoes or some fat jeans or whatever ......beats doing nothing .Or hangout in the perfume dept - never know who you'll bump into .
Guess I'm better off being pitted than those who are not in yet and must stay out on the track tonight .Gotta go dinner is ready ...........

Re: Live from Maple Grove - NHRA Auto - Plus Nationals
I have wondered about this before and I guess this is a good place to ask. If you get stuck at a National Event. Do they have someone and something to pull you out or are you on the hook for the tow truck bill? Just curious.
