If we're all going to die, right after they throw the checker on a 100 lap midget race would be almost as good a way as any, to go out. Unless it was a too-close-to-call finish and the big flash went up right before they announced the winner. I would know I went to hell then.:3:

End of the world is when the last nonwing sprintcar has no place to race.

Re: End of the World Sat Oh well
 
That guy would have been better off sponsoring a sprint car. Yes the money would have been gone just as fast as it was for him to advertise the end of the world. But he would have seen one hell of a race.

You know what's funny is I heard about this today instead of months or years ahead.

Larryburg is not far so maybe this still holds true.

Same group of idiots...errrr, people said the same thing in 1994... also the 6pm time is for I believe the Equator so would be different here.

I am sure when Sunday rolls around they will have some story to tell.... maybe it'll start with "Once upon a time....."

Hey Guys!, my understanding is that Saturday is the Rapture, not the end of the world.....only the "Good" are going to be pulled up to the Eternal Bliss in the sky and only the A-holes will be left here on earth.....so guys, what are we going to do after the good ones are gone?? Is there a party anywhere???:2:

Re: End of the World Sat Oh well
 
planning on having a pole-day party up here in michigan. those of us left here at 6:05 will be watching the horse race and then probably the stock cars later while getting the van ready for 5 glorious days in Indy.

I starting hearing about this a while ago. So I started advertising to all of the followers. :16 I'm offering to buy their homes for 25% on the dollar. In cash, so they will have Toll $$ in heaven. So far no takers :deadhorse: Dam Craigslist :15:

Anyone know if there will be live streaming or updates of this event? Don't forget to close all windows and shades. Turn off gas, water and electric. Cancel phone, cable and newspaper delivery. Put out extra food for pets. And no on-street parking.

If roads being washed away and flooding from heavy rain are leading up to this event that is what Oneida County in N. Y. dealt with yesterday. The Southern Tier south of Syracuse is experiencing heavy rain and flash flooding at this posting. Saturday the sun is suppose to shine, time to fire up the engines for an open preactice at the Big O; world can't end it is finally time to go racing in Oswego.

Which reminds me of a story I was told by a co-worker back in the '60s. He and his wife were invited to a party at the home of a new neighbor. They had a couple of drinks and some conversation, then had to leave to relieve the baby sitter. The host saw them to the door. As they were headed down the steps, he realized he had left his hat on a table just inside the door. Not wanting to bother anyone, he just opened the door, stepped in and grabbed the hat. As he turned to leave, he heard the host yell, "OK, everyone, the last of the squares has left. Let's get naked." :2:

And, leave your sprint or midget in the driveway, because I'm going to come get it and spend the rest of the summer racing it. I assume everyone else with one will also want to race every night. :5:

In keeping with the spring weather routine,
I'm thinking there's at least a 50/50 chance that this wiill be a rainout and will be rescheduled!!!

For those of you "taken" it would be in poor taste to shout "I told you so" to those left behind.

For those left behind remember- "Soylent Green is people!"
