One March opening day at Island in the late 80s/early 90s, it was in the mid 30s and we were snowed out before first round. The Mickey Thompson dog bone tread street/strip tires actually weren't too bad in the snow...

In 2002, my wife set the T/SA record in Lloyd MacKay's Buick at the Delmar open in late March. It was flurrying while I was putting the head back on...

Suffolk/Hampton Raceway used to close the weekend before Christmas and open the weekend after New Years. This pic was me changing engines a few days after New Years 1973 getting ready for the following weekend.

I have a picture of my "stocker" at ID in the mid '70's with piles of white stuff in the background. I think they call it snow.

That has happened several times. Sometimes have to run 1/8 mile, other times had to cancel.

I remember driving down the road and it looked like the forest was on fire, it was just the pollen being blown out of the trees and onto the track! Everything was green, EVERYTHING!
