any news about Farmington this weekend? with the weather looking worse than the first time, have they made any changes? I tried to contact the track, got recording. no help on the IHRA site.

Weather not looking good. However, I think IHRA is about out of dates. Glad I left my car in Charlotte.

I have to agree with Mike; there isn't very much wiggle room here for the IHRA. I'm waiting on a thumbs up or down before Friday morning. I've locked up all the sharp kitchen utensil's just in case!

From what I read when they posted the new date.Said race will be finish if it has to be ran on Monday.

Tracy Robbins · 09-19-2013, 09:32 AM

Accuweather calls for rain on Monday too.

sounds like a practice tree, or a card draw race to me then.

Cameron just posted this on DRR...UPDATE: In light of pending weather at the Summit Pro-Am Tour season finale at Farmington Dragway this weekend, the schedule has been adjusted to expedite the completion of the event. There will now be one qualifying session Saturday morning at the regularly scheduled time of 9 a.m. Race 1 will be completed on Saturday followed immediately by the beginning of Race 2 Saturday evening. The IHRA will complete both Pro-Am races this weekend and will use Monday if needed. Check back with IHRA.com for updates.

uuuggghhhh. wish they could just run it Friday, or both races on sat. maybe we can get it in. too much on the line to just stay home or cancel it.

Keith 944 · 09-19-2013, 01:04 PM

well. ^^^^ looks like we were typing at the same time, it may happen. but then again, that is what they told us last time! fingers crossed...

We all know that they can't control the weather & they want to get it in as much as us racers want to get it in. Their hands are tied as they have no choice but stay until this race is run to completion. D9 bracket finals is at Piedmont next weekend, D1 bracket finals at Piedmont the following weekend, & then Memphis. Weather has been awful on both facilities & racers this year & it's just an unfortunate situation. See everyone there tomorrow!
