Jackson Pro Am

STOCK NEWBIE · 08-13-2013, 05:48 PM

Has anyone heard the plan with the not so good weather forecast? Would really like to come but unless the forecast has a turnaround it doesn't look good.

I was going but I'm just a couple of days short of finishing the car.
Arthritus in my thumb has been real bad. Can't get more than an hour of work done till it stops me. I'll try to make the Darlington race if weather permits.

I dunno. Hopefully IHRA will make a decision soon. It's between 40% and 60% chance of rain each day. I wanna race!!!! Jim

I spoke to div 2 director today, he informed me that they are going to make an announcement tomorrow afternoon whether to hold the event or postpone it. IHRA is also running out of weekends to hold the pro ams fast.

Anyone know of any good campgrounds up there that we could stay at after the Jackson race and before Darlington? Jim

Richard i would call Darlington dragway and talk to the owner he is a nice guy I'm sure he wouldn't have a problem with you leaving your rig their...

And to Jim I don't know about camping down their close to darlington but we have some nice ones up here close to the NC zoo it's only about an 1 45 mins from the track
