Well it is 10:00 and raining! And Jack is not even here! It is 57 degrees so if it does quit raining, it will take a while to get things going. When I looked at Accu-weather last night, it was calling for 5 hours of rain last night and 8 hours today. But it did not rain at all last night and has just now started this morning, so I am going to quit believing them.

The track was really bad yesterday. From what I heard they were using the VP stuff on the starting line (which was FREE) as opposed to the VHT (THAT WORKS). They are supposed to be using the VHT today, so we will see how that goes.

Well, I now have a working camera, but nobody has their car out, so pics will come later!

More later!

That VP stuff is really crap for automatic cars. Stick cars need a little wheel speed, so may not mind it as much.

Most of the stick SS cars were hooking good, others were problematic at best.

I'm planning on leaving tonight after my daughter's soccer game. Can someone there confirm or deny if there was a weeping issue with the track yesterday? I really don't think I can take another day of sitting around NOT being able to race because it's sunny out...

Yesterday it took about 12 hours to complete a race that should have been over in less than 6 hours.The weather was fine.I would say stay home,especially if you are running F/SA.LOL!

Weeping wasn't the issue yesterday. Lack of qualified management was the problem. It hasn't rained that much and it's supposed to remain cloudy the rest of the weekend. 2:30 and it just started raining again. Not jet dryer in sight. Go ahead and drive 8 hours and hang out in the mud with us. The field grass is so high it's ready to bale into hay. You know this place sucks, why would you even think twice?

Good Job Jim

I agree 100% but I am at a motel 3 miles away and hoped someone on the grounds could be respond.

A big waste of time.

The question is WHY do they continue to have this race at such a junk track? year after year with the same results.I am loaded and ready to hit the road at the cost of about 500.00 I think you guys have just about talked me out of it sounds like the weather is only one of the problems in Columbus
