I'd say about halfway home, I noticed everything looked dry. Once I arrived home, I again thought it looked dry as could be. My wife proceeded to tell me that it hasn't rained a drop! I live maybe ten minutes from the track. It just wasn't meant to be...

These pop up showers are isolated and last night was strange. I drove down and it looked really dark by the time I got to the fairgrounds. They were qualifying and I was walking to the grandstands and it started raining. Didn't last all that long but the track was extremely muddy. They tried to scrape some of the mud off and repack it.
Try as they might it was getting somewhat better when it started to sprinkle again and then finally another pop up shower. On the way home it rained lightly for about 2 miles north and then absolutely nothing. The road was dry and it never did rain all the way back home. In fact the sun came out briefly. Hopefully tonight will be better for UMRA.
