Today looks like a wash, tomorrow looks to be off and on (get the jet fuel ready), Saturday morning same, and then it is supposed to clear up.
I was looking at the same thing.. :( I have tickets for Fri, Sat, & Sunday.. I Was going to leave early tomorrow morning.. to be at the track by 8am but the way things look.... I'll plan on 12 noon...
Only hope Sat clears up... I've been going to Maple Grove for the last 15+ years.. and think I can count on one hand the years when it didn't rain at all... :(
Maybe next year when they race in Aug the weather will be better.. it'll be HOT but hopefully no rain...

We'll run tomorrow, but the Safety Safari will be hammered by the end of the day. On and off rain ensures a difficult day for the guys/girls in blue.
Surprised to see Hamelink at Maple Grove - must be excited to try out the new 128%.

The question now is do you cram it all into two days or reschedule? It just started pooring outside.

Qualifying tomorrow should be really interesting. The DNQ list could potentially have some top players in it.

It's raining now. I am no weather man, but it appears the rain should be out of the area in the next 3 hours.

Looks like they have cancelled Reading for this weekend. The make up date is in 2 weeks.
Hope you have a good time jpee. Keep your rain gear close.
Bob I had the rain jacket, etc.. but NEVER GOT OUT OF THE FREAKIN CAR... I got to the track Fri.. it was raining so hard I just went back to the motel.. took a shower & me & Doug had the BEST PRIME RIB DINNER EVER it was a Buffet & I went back for 3rds :D
Today (Sat) I got to the track 7am with my pillow reclined the seat and went to sleep.. some guy woke me up at 11 & told me it was called off..
I left the track.. got 10 miles down the Pa turnpike & the sun was out.. I got home (Somers) and it 80 deg and Sunny....
I still have the tickets & will go back Sept 29.. ONLY IF THE WEATHER IS GAR-UN-TEED To Be Good ...
BTW if the weather is good maybe we'll get to see a new PS record!

NOT good at all! In fact, the entire weekend of racing has been postponed until the end of the month!:mad:
