Re: Need Help Information about Houston condition
We passed thru Baytown last night around 9:00pm on our way home from Dallas and we had to do 45-50mph as we passed the exit for the track due to severe thunderstorms. Lots of Rain please someone let us know something because NHRA is not saying a word.

Re: Need Help Information about Houston condition
Warren Womack is at the track. According to Warren the parallel road to the main road to the east side is getting sand. The rear of the property from the large drainage ditch north is unusable, grass not cut, just so much water. Dallas as an alternative for Sportsman is out according to the track here in Dallas. I would assume NHRA will not make any changes to the pit parking like moving some t shirt trailers etc. The area against the fence next to the grandstand pit side is rented to motorhomes. The pit area at the round track is rented to campers. I think we all knew this, and I thank Warren for driving 50 miles to help us out. We are going to withdraw and go home. We may miss something. There has been no offer of extended withdrawal, but if we get bumped as happened two years ago, it's a lot more expensive for everyone. This is just too much drama and expense to sink my 60 and 70 thousand pound rigs in the mud. And of course little or no real communication about track conditions or options from NHRA does not help. We will pick another race at another location.

Re: Need Help Information about Houston condition
I know I said in the other thread that I was not going, but for some reason I have stuck with it. There was a pretty big drop off in total entries today compared to what they were at on Saturday. Probably close to 100 entries down.
This isn't the first or last time that I have made a stupid mistake! Ha!
