I am thinking of traveling to Eldora this weekend. I noticed that the weather does not look good for Saturday. What day do they run if Saturday is out? Do they wait for Sunday, or go for it the next weekend?

The way the weather men in Indy are, lets go. They are predicting rain on and off all weekend. They are wrong 85% of the time. So I say let's go racin', see you all at The Big E.

9-24-09 5pm eastern forecast for Rossburg

Friday: A chance of showers. Cloudy, with a high near 71. East wind around 8 mph. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch possible.

Friday Night: A chance of showers, with thunderstorms also possible after 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 58. East wind around 5 mph becoming south. Chance of precipitation is 40%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

Saturday Night: A chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 10pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 54. West wind between 3 and 6 mph. Chance of precipitation is 30%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms.

I agree just go and there will be racing sooner or later. They will run this. It's the end of the year. As Janis Joplin says "you better get while you can".

Weather looks good for both days as of right now. Possibly a late afternoon/early evening shower on Saturday, but nothing to cancel the program over. Weather looks even better for Sunday at Waynesfield for our final points event of the season. Just 45 minutes from Eldora off US 33.
