Watching weather and Du Quoin. It is a long drive to there from Indy, and it looks like they got rain last night and this morning.

Forecast and radar look terrible...I'm hoping to know something by 1 or 1:30 so we know whether to go or not...any help is appreciated!

but they've gotten rain this morning. track # is 618-542-1515.

I just called the fair office and they are waiting for Sarge to show up and make a decision. Only 140 mile drive for us so we'll prolly head on up. You know the track should be in great shape with all the rain. Maybe a repeat of the first night race in 03.

I drove 7 hrs for the race and am staying 20 miles south of the track. It stormed like crazy all night, but its sunny now
