Just thought I would give you a heads up since our rigs are hard to turn around if we go the wrong way!

So we will see you there! Don’t forget your long Johns! It is going to be cold!!

Looks like you might need a snow shovel.

I’ve been wanting to tryout my new studded race tires.

I called the track and asked if they were going to allow us to purchase entries at the ticket both if we don't want our personal information given to pit pay. They said yes, you can pay for your entry at the gate, but you'll still have to submit your tech card on line. I'm not a fan of giving ANYONE a copy of my license or passport information. That's how identity theft occurs. My credit card was compromised last year when entering on line. We should not be forced to enter with this procedure. It opens you up for all kinds of issues down the road.

Larry, let’s make LEMONADE out of lemons. Treat Patsy to dinner at LAMBERTS on the way home. There is a cool display of old license plates on the walls.

Postponed ! North Central Division World Wide Technology Event Postponed
Officials from World Wide Technology Raceway and the National Hot Rod Association today announced the postponement of the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series Regional event scheduled for this weekend, April 23-24-25, 2021. The event will now be in run in conjunction with the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series event scheduled for September 30-October 3, 2021 to create a ‘double-divisional’ event race week.



After consultation with multiple weather service providers, the forecast calls for rain throughout the weekend that would not enable track and series adequate time to properly conduct qualifying and eliminations. The decision was made early in an attempt to provide racers adequate time to alter travel plans.



Competitors currently pre-entered in the event will have their entries automatically transferred or they can request a refund by contacting the track. Pre-entered competitors will not need to take any further action with their existing entry.



The double-divisional event schedule will take place the weekend following the NHRA Midwest Nationals which is scheduled for September 24-26, 2021.

You could turn around and head to SGMP for this weekend's D2 race. Friday and Sunday look good but Saturday is looking like a washout if the weather stays the same as predicted
