Good morning everyone, they have been puling rigs as of 7am at a brisk pace. The staging lanes full of rigs are almost empty and they should be going back to the fields soon.

The weather is beautiful today, so at least we that. Hopefully the many races that had to wait to get in can get settle in and try to have a fun week of racing. I am so dishearten how this race has started out. I know if I was not park, I would be stressing out. There is no good reason for this to have happen.

I will be back later with photos and any other news of the day.

In fairness to the situation at Indy, Monday night into Tues. morning it rained very hard on to what was already very wet ground. I was sure things looked very bad for parking, NHRA did their best of a tough situation, I was there.

If I recall right Indy is on EST....it changes to CST west of Indy somewhere.....

Not sure if that's correct anymore but it was in the past....

By Saturday all of this start up crap will be in the rear view mirror.

Enjoy the good - forget the bad - it cost too much to do otherwise.

Please everyone, make the best of the situation. Visit with friends, and give help to someone that needs it setting up.

The weather is what it is and can't be changed. I know it isn't fun, but it could be much worse.

Be thankful that you are there and enjoy the event as much as possible.

Think of the racers that we have lost this past year and those in poor health and can't be there. How would they handle this weather problem?? Thank you for your time.
