Thursday should be fine, it's Friday and Saturday that we may see a shower pass by. Still hoping the front changes for the better.

A quick passing shower won't be bad if is helps bring down the temps just will be steamy. I just wish the temps will be lower than predicted.

Doesn't look like we will get much racing in Friday, wonder how that's going to work out for Saturday.

It's constantly changing. Last night I was looking and it said late PM thunderstorms. So it could be a wet parking lot party. These pop up storms will be too difficult to predict. I know this crowd, a little rain won't slow this party ride down.

The PP won't be slowed but will damper the racing aspect.

So if it rains is there a big enough vacant parking lot where a (newb wet drift'n and spin'n) contest could be held...winner TBD by crowd enthusiasm and you get .30 sec to get really stupid SAFELY!!!!

Back story - how many peeps have REALLY gotten into it with all nannies off? Yesterday in DRY weather I was going to pull a quick u-turn to get around a line of turning cars...wheel cranked to the left and when I made the turn put just a "LITTLE" bit more throttle in it and BOOM...360 like that and I was shocked how little it took...the above could be a nice driver safety training applicable to many inclement driving scenarios...see ya'll there!!!!!!!!!!!!
