Thanks Mud Packer. We will keep our fingers crossed. We could wait until Friday 7am our time and still make it by 3pm or so but we like to leave around 2 or 3am to avoid any traffic.

Tim we are suppose to have heavy rain starting tonight and running into Friday, sunny and fifty for Saturday, I can P.M. my cell phone if you want to give me a call thru the night as I will be up all night.

Pine, don't forget ARDC is at Susky Saturday! I know you hate Fisher, but this is the only time ARDC will run Susky at night this entire year. I see it as a must.

That seems like a safe bet at this point. Check back on the Eldora website, they should have an update any minute now.

Re: Weather/Eldora
 

Anyone know if they rainout Friday, which looks like a good bet, will they have the HARF/DARF discount promotion on Saturday's Race?
