Hey Jack, it's good to know you'll be there. I'm coming in in the morning.
Can you save me an x-large t-shirt?
Thanks, and don't park in the mud.

Hey Jack, wish we could be there this weekend. Hope you have a great time. I hope you stocked up on the Klondike Bars, I hear Mr. Demarzo will be raiding the freezer. Good luck to all and safe travels.

Sitting watching rain,coffee now beer soon.

Some very large areas of standing water in the back field where I' parked, and I'm right off the main road . They may be holding rigs in the lanes, I haven't seen anyone parked for the last several hours. It's been raining too hard to confirm that .

I was told that starting at noon they were holding everyone in the stagging lanes.

Jack keep us posted. I have to work. Have fun gang!!!!

Just took a walk, a few rigs in the lanes waiting to be parked ,just going in very slow . Grounds are totally saturated . They are parking around the perimeter of the field only right now. I took a walk to the river , and it is very high . The local weather looks like the worst is done, but it will take at least a day before they can park rigs or move race cars on a lot of the pits .

Thanks Jack and all for the weather/track updates, staying positive and will likely head out early morning.
