Robert got up early this morning to drive to my grandparents to help with the flooding and try to save their house. I attached a picture of his view from their front porch. There's a tiny orange spot - that is the highway marker on top of their mailbox at the highway. Please pray for this rain to stop. It is affecting so much more than racing.

Thank you so much! After crashing Saturday night he worked all day until late last night so he could drive down to help this morning. I feel terrible that I couldn't go with him to help, but I'm sure he's more useful than I would be. Although I'm sure he will be exhausted when he gets back. We just need this weather to give us a five day break at the least.

Sacha,

I'm guessing Robert drives a small white pickup truck? I was on the way back from Indy this morning and a truck with a Ballou Motorsports emblem in the back glass went blowing by, heading west on I-70. Driving like he was in a hurry to get somewhere.

Either way, good luck with your Grandparents situation.

Yes that was him. There is only one way in and out of town right now - and it's way out of the way that is the quickest. He got there just before noon I think.
