37 degrees tomorrow with a wind chill, windy as hell, no paved parking so that means you get to park in the soggy grass or mud, and with the huge amount of rain to hit Bowman today the track will probably still be damp and you can't glue over a damp track, or a track that still might have a little water left to seep through.

I wouldn't open either, that's all I was getting at.

Since you were planning on racing tomorrow, you can head up to Jackson- gates open at 1pm.

Why should we have to drive to Jackson to race? They had the same amount of rain and temps will be colder. That is what I am getting at.
Bowman said they would stay open all year. That is my point. Why drive 2 1/4 hours upstate when weather is colder?

Personally that is not my car! So I can't say anything about that.
That is not the point I was making in the thread. If the weather is permiting.
Why do we have to drive over 2 hrs to race. I would not have opened today with it raining either. If it is sunny and cold to me is not a reason to close the track. Don't advertise you will be open all year. End of rant.

Yes we were there. Mike had the white one and I ran the red one.
The only challenger that I ever saw racing there, was a Black one and a Orange one. Never saw a purple one. Unless you repainted it. Not taking jabs!

Ray. I don't ever remember staging with a purple challenger.. Even if I did it don't matter to me. Win or Lose.
