The weather today
 

Anyone in Gas City or North Vernon that can report how much rain is falling there? Want to know if there is a chance of seeing a race tonight.

Some light rain fell earlier here in Marion. I am about 8 miles northwest of Gas City I-69 Speedway. Right now it is overcast with just a hint of sunshine and no rain falling.

I was just at the Track at North Vernon, dry so far but looks like it could rain at any time.

Thanks guys:thumb

I am in the hotel next to the track in Gas City and its currently raining.

It has been raining for a while now. Not a hard rain although steady and soaking. There are little streams of water running along the sides of some roads. There is a break in the clouds to the south and the sun is actually shining a little into my south windows. If it doesn't get any worse and stops by 2 or 3 O'Clock then we might be in luck. Even so, if they do run at Gas City, be leary of parking in the east lot. That is already soft from previous rains.

I am afraid of what the track at North Vernon is going to be like tonight. The Battle of the Bluegrass DirtCar series was there last night along with four other classes. Someone told me the track was not exactly in the best of shape

that's scarry for our first night out. kinda makes a "Dad" hope for more rain. I know, I know, I'm a sissy.:(

Re: The weather today
 

Right now it is cloudy in North Vernon, but the sun keeps showing its face periodically. I know there is a chance later this afternoon for some showers, but with them running the late model show last night, I think a little rain would not hurt things. Hopefully they get it in.

Talked to someone that lives around 2-3 miles from Gas City Speedway. Currently no rain, although its overcast.

I was relaying a message Dave...not disparaging Mason in any way. I know what he is capable of, and he is capable of whipping that track right back into shape. You know I support you guys from afar

Dont want to send the wrong message

Re: The weather today
 

Thats fine, but in a inconspicuous way,it was a total bash!!
I don't tolorate it. We are all in this together!! We all need to help each other, not hurt each other.
Thanks, Dave

Well the track has been used practically all week. Wednesday they had a practice session, Thursday I believe the TSM Outlaw cars were having a test and tune session, and last night the late model show. Maybe with a little rain, the track will be in good condition tonight.

Re: The weather today
 

It wasnt a bash, and I wasnt being inconspicuous. Just stating a fact that there was a couple of rough spots in the track. Every track has em. The constant rains and lack of dry weather does that to a track. And when a track holds a two day event, the first day does a lot to the track for the second day. Makes for a long night for the promoter. Ill guarantee you that Brownstown will be rough in turn one tonight. It happens. Not to mention our grandstands need a little fixing...

Good luck to you guys tonight Dave, trust me, if Brownstown rains out it wont take me all but a half second to decide to head to North Vernon to support Mason and Tawnya

It's a light drizzle here in Gas City. I went over to Kokomo earlier to pick some stuff up and have lunch and it was sunshine there for half an hour and then another band of weather rolled in. I suspect we'll see waves of sun, clouds, sprinkles, sun, etc. I just hope we can get this race in.
