Overcast right now. Drying the track right now. There were only 250 or so cars here yesterday. Unless a bunch of racers come in today it will not take long to get it in.

Starting to drizzle again, just enough to keep everything wet.
We need some sunshine! Dennis Breeden |

Hope you get it in. Real pain if it gets delayed again.

Re: "Live" from Indy divisional 2013
Been running the jet dryer off and on, but it's still spittin' off and on just enough to keep us from getting to roll.

Re: "Live" from Indy divisional 2013
So we've gone from "10%" chance of rain this morning to "50%" now through this evening. Looking at the radar, my personal prognostication is currently at 100%, because, well... IT'S RAINING. Not like we've never cussed the weatherman before, but seriously, I don't think they've been in the zip code of correct for quite some time now. Couple rigs have pulled out. A few people are still standing around getting soaked and bench racing. It's settled in over us for a few hours in my estimation, plus dry time, humidity levels, blahblahblah... I don't see anything going down today. Might scoot out and grab some lunch somewheres.

Re: "Live" from Indy divisional 2013
Just announced, stickin' to their guns: "If we don't get anything done today, we will run tomorrow, as originally posted, same run order."
Seen another handful of trailers leave since I posted last.

Re: "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! ;-)
