Rain in Gainesville

[NitroMustang65]

As of now, the pits are to wet to get the cars out, so the plan is, Comp at about 10 then TAFC TAD and the Pros.

If it drys out the sportsman may get a hit this afternoon,

Does anyone know if the Gainesville track has a AM or FM broadcast system?
if so what frequency?

we're in the RV camping area so I should be able to receive the signal.

Thanks
Brian

Judging by this loop its gonna be awhile. Lot of yellow on that radar. Might have to start on a new plan to finish Phoenix Pro Stock, as there may not be enough qualifying sessions to do so at this race.

may have to do like the Horsepower Challenge where the 1st Sat Session is round 2 of Phoenix, and then semis after the pros don't count as qualifying and the finals is the final pair of PS Qualifying Final Session.

I'm in a Kinko's right now using their PC, and it's still Pouring Buckets! Last night at Ale HOuse a couple of people told me this storm should(?) pull out of here by around 2PM! If they don't get in at least 1 rd of qualifying in today they will be in fior a world of hurt!

Just when I thought the weather would clear up this afternoon/evening...Swerve...WHAT A TEASE!

The official NHRA postponement release indicates that Busch is still in. GAINESVILLE - Thursday Postponed

Since S/G isn't laddered for first round eliminations and it is an all run class, I don't see why he wouldn't be allowed to compete.

Maybe those pesky grade points that "normal" Sportsman racers need to run a National?

Oh wait....

According to the weather Channels hour by hour, there will be some kind of moisture until at least 7pm.

I've read elsewhere that his car was entered and went through tech at the divisional in Commerce last weekend. That's all you need to do for a grade point.

I have nothing but dead air. The NHRA app is showing Schumacher vs. Dixon, odd (which I know isn't correct).

It'll be Comp, Pros, Pro Mod Alky for today, probably means Phoenix PS R2 included.

But lets fire it Up!
