"Live" Somewhat...Atlanta Double Divisional

Brett C · 03-31-2016, 10:56 AM

Spitting rain has not allowed anyone down the track as of yet. Been dry for a few minutes, so maybe we just maybe get going soon. D2 text system keeping us informed which is a huge help. Big rain on the way though.

Thanks for the update Brett. Hoping to be out there tomorrow. Keep us posted.

Thanks for getting the thread started Brett. I'm surely fired now, truth is I haven't made it there yet and likely will not make the first race but I plan to be there sometime tomorrow.
I am signed up for text messages also and it sounded like they were going to get started about 30 minutes ago but it doesn't seem likely looking at the radar. Keep us up to date and I will see everyone tomorrow!

Well track was ready, weather cooperating, racers ready, clocks malfunctioning. SST was in the lanes and got sent back. Not a good sign.
Tougher pill to swallow when the iffy weather is granting us a chance.

Well they are calling SST to get suited up. Right scoreboard will not function, but time slips should be good.

Brett C · 03-31-2016, 02:34 PM

SST & stock got in, SC was almost done and the rain started.
My first run in stock there was some type of fluid on the track in right lane that no one caught until I ran. Obviously had to abort the run. We double checked everything and it was not us.

Just got text from NHRA control, they said box them up for the day. At least we (stockers) got a hit today. This front will blow through tonite so we should be OK tomorrow. It's beginning to rain heavy, it's Miller time or Budlight in my case.

Thanks again everyone for keeping us updated. Please let us know what the revised schedule might look like for tomorrow. My son and I are coming out as soon as the weather clears. We are closer to Atlanta, so hopefully when it passes us we can chase the weather up I-85.

Track drying underway. Gonna try to get SC finished and SS, SG in today.
If the timing malfunction was not in play, we would have gotten it done easily.

Is there a Stock Q sheet?

Thanks
