The two tracks are not known for having wet, tacky tracks. So lack of rain is not a good thing. Not sure what one I will go to, would be cool to see the big blocks. But will they bring any cars with them for a one off race 10 hours from home?

We've had plenty of rainfall in West MI in the last week, there have been reports of as little as .5" and as great as nearly 3" of rainfall depending on the location just in the last week. I don't anticipate either of the tracks being "heavy" but they should be decent...

I stand corrected, 96 doesn't run this weekend so Mike and Walt will have more than enough time to get the half whipped into shape. I read on another forum that they have already started watering and reshaping in recent days. Good to see a MI track take a proactive approach on prep, that just doesn't happen up here.
