"Live" from Indy divisional 2013

The big glob of green has broken up a little directly over the track, so we're back to just a little spittin' off and on. The staff isn't going to let any opportunity for granted, and has been out on the tracks with trucks and the zamboni to try to stay ahead of things. Several more rigs have pulled out. Some have jockeyed for position in the pits. There's another stacker rolling out. The war of attrition will be fought amongst the retired and the self employed. Last guy here wins! ;-)

You're a brave man for staying and reporting for us Mr. Beard. : )
Thanks for the updates.

Not brave, merely self-employed. ;-)

The Glob returned with anything from rain to sprinkles (and not the yummy kind mostly associated with ice cream sundaes or cake decorating) again. The sportsman committee was called to the tower. After several minutes, looks like the track staff is heading out. Announcements coming shortly I assume.

Good Luck

To the hardy souls. I am about 100 mile SE and it is finally starting to let up some. 1.5" in the rain gauge last time I looked.

Announced: We will NOT run tomorrow, with weather supposed to stick around through the morning. It will be rescheduled, TBA: Likely either in conjuction with Chicago LODRS in June (Thurs or Fri) *OR* running it with the Fall Classic here at Indy in October. All tentative. Keep an eye on www.nhradiv3.com for the final word.
