Weather for Indy
I was looking at the forcast for Indy this weekend and it's going to be cold.
In your opinion what temperature is it safe to go down the track or does it matter to you? |

Re: Weather for Indy
AT Indy ? Track needs to be 85 deg. Remember Stockers put some heat in for everyone else. It's gonna be cold and rainy this week, so plan for everything ! One more thing, Track prep is crucial for all of us to get down safe too !

Re: Weather for Indy
I noticed last week in the Stocker forum a few were having issues. Hopefully that doesn't happen again this weekend.

Re: Weather for Indy
Hopefully they are strongly considering postponing this race. 44 degrees for a high is not safe track conditions! It was in the 60s at st Louis and the track sucked. I can't imagine what Indy will be like at that temp.

Re: Weather for Indy
C'mon BB...isn't your measurement of a good racing weekend a little different than the rest of us? You'd consider the weekend a success when you keep the motorhome in one piece!
Sorry...I couldn't resist... I'm of the opinion that we invest a lot of money in this sport and expect to get some kind of enjoyment back. Rain is highly unpredictable...but temperature can be somewhat predictable. I'm not seeing a lot of potential for enjoyment this weekend. Obviously I will be there...but can't say I'm all that excited about it.... |
