Might be a good day for them. Rain Sunday but sunny and high 60s on Monday in Gainesville.

Not sounding so good for the Daytona 500 though. Don't watch much NASCAR but this one is kind of fun

Waiting until 3pm to drop the green flag almost guarantees a rain shortened race. Had they started it at 1PM it wouldn't be a problem. 6pm is when rain and thunderstorms are predicted to start in Daytona Beach.

Must have heard you. They moved it up to 1:30 pm

Should've kept it like in the early 90's, around 11:30-noon.
That way many of us could get back to Toledo and maybe get to work on Monday.

Cloudy and 70 at Gainesville tomorrow. As long as it doesn't rain cats and dogs this evening they should be good to go.

I don’t think anybody ran today. Should be hot and heavy tomorrow.

Even looks like a Scrappers logo on the back of a shirt by the rig.

Yes, thanks for posting. I have never seen that perspective of the track before. They sure have what looks like a nice, long shut down area. Also I don't see any development nearby yet. So maybe that track has at least a few more years to go before they have to close.

Those shots give a great idea of how long that track is.
Did you have to get permission to fly your drone over the facility?
