Will there be racing at SUNSET this weekend?

[daisygirl818]

I have come to the sad realization that it doesn't seem to matter what the weather forecast says that it would be easier to just shake a "Magic 8 Ball" and ask WILL THERE BE RACING this weekend at SUNSET?

AS I shake the ball right now it says the outlook looks good, as I shake it again well..... lets take the first answer..lol
There have been sooo many rainouts I wonder if the THUNDER CAR mid-season will even happen at this point! Perhaps raindates should be included for regular racing also just not when OSSCAR is in town? Just a thought.

I am hoping to attend Saturday when I get done work. I have had a FULL 3 DAYS of racing on the weekend and the shakes have stopped completely so SATURDAY would be the gravy if you will. I hope to see the usual suspects there and experience what has been eluding me for a while now.

WATCHING A RACE AT SUNSET SPEEDWAY!


Thanks for reading

I am *DYING* to go racing. So bad. I think everybody's been going through withdrawls. I mean when I had my old car I could drive like a crazylady... with the truck I am not risking rolling my baby hahaha

Part of me says YAY RAINDATES! and the other part of me says "NO RAINDATES!" Why? Because pretending I am an adult, and working a shitty shift fulltime really takes a toll on the sleepy pattern... which means Sunday is the only day of rest for me, and if I'm rushing on Saturday (while weather is wonderful ) to get ready for racing and we don't, it means Sunday is rushy all over again and I am exhausted forever. It's a vicious cycle I tell you.

Hey Daisy, did you make it out to any tracks last weekend?  A whole bunch of us were at Barrie on Saturday (including drive32) - it was a blast.

my guess is if it rains within 24hrs of the event it will be called

I swear it's suppose to rain Friday and Sunday, but not Saturday.
Figures, we'd probably be flooded regardless.
I just wanna go fast. (or as fast as that tempo will take me hahah)

There is another way, Just show up and when they tell us there is a rain out just say "NO, we are going to wait it out" and walk away! Don't let him tell you!

I always thought that it was the drivers who decided if there was racing or not I know they do when it starts raining during the races. Am I wrong?

nope, management will send a car out to test the track and take the information the driver gives into consideration

but ultimately its the call of the owner and starter combined

Thanks for the info. So would bribing Rob help get the races going then? I am sure if I started now and pooled the money I could come up with 5 bucks total before Saturday. I know RACERS are POOR but there is a few days. lmao

I swear if a bunch of girls in tight t-shirts went and ran back and forth across the track a few times Rob will be bribed enough...


I don't know this from experience *shifty eyes*
Hahahahah!
