Weather for the event...Showers :(

[The Stickman]

I must be the oddball here. I love wet track days. They really challenge you. But I passed a guy once at Pocono in the wet in my S-10. He was in a Cobra replica. He came up to me in the pits after to ask me if I was crazy.

Get loose (sideways) in the dry, you will usually scrub speed and drive off unless you panic and get on the brakes.... counter-steer, and you 'catch' the car and drive off, no harm no foul... do it in the wet and you are swapping ends, or off track, and if you are off track and not straight you won't likely regain control any time soon. 3500-4000lb cars don't slow down so well on wet grass.

Pardon my negative attitude on the rain... it just isn't fun no matter how you do it.. you get wet (open windows typically are required at most tracks), the interior gets wet, that makes me cold and grumpy! :(

I disagree about being able to save it, but not about the wet grass and the rain sucking to stand around in.

Just to let you all know.....I will be bringing a tent/canopy to the event so we can have some place to hang out in and not get all wet.

[lvrpool32]

I am bringing an enclosed trailer....so I can move the car outside under the cover and we can hide inside the trailer

[The Stickman]

All I am bringing is a big freakin truck to sit in.

For those of you who are trailering your car to the event...are you planning to also trailer it tothe track or just drive it to the track from the hotel?

Im not sure if I want to put it back on the trailer after the friday night cruise...but I kinda want the truck in case it rains.....what to do what to do.

I was thinking the same way with the trailers, I wonder if we can unload at the track Friday and leave them there overnight? Glad to see the forecast in improving. I'll take my anti-grumpy possitive vibe pills. -Dan

And chance of snowstorm? WTF these idiot weather people.

[68sixspeed]

5-10" of snow for Connecticut for Friday... that should make for a fun trip down. I think I'm lowered too much for tire chains... -Dan

[SicMonte]

this event is going to be very interesting....

[sr73bu]

After doing 2 events in the rain, I'll be bringing my Magnum RT instead....

Saturday is looking like the weather will be nice...Please tell me you are bringing the Dart!?? I'd love to see that thing in person!

[GMachineDartGT]

You may have some snow, but don't worry... Your probably 3 hours north of the track.... the system is strong near north- northwest Jersey, but down there is a different story... lets hope so, A guy at work studies weather and is confident Millville, NJ will see "percipitation moving out of the area by 1-2pm on Friday and Saturday will be clear... but alittle breezy"... He has never failed me.... lets hope he's right!

C'mon guys... Glass half full.

either way rain or no rain....I'm doing donuts in the parkling lot.
