hurricane ????
looking at the tracking of this hurricane and it does not look good for me this race weekend ? living on the sea shore of CT it looks like i will have to load up the hauler in the hurricane on sunday then drive up to NH in the storm . then on munday it's should be in the maine , new hampshire area ?
Re: hurricane ????
The current track estimate is taking it more inland so that should improve the conditions on the coast (less storm surge) and weaken the storm more quickly. I plan on loading up on Saturday and hoping for the best. In the event announcement section there is talk of the possibility of a cancellation depending on what happens and when.

Lots of canopies bit the dust at NJMP. Any remaining intact can be disposed of this weekend.

Re: hurricane ????
I am with Troy. Plan on either loading Saturday or very early Monday but may even slap rain tires on and drive instead of haul.
Rain is a great equalizer ... tail wind works for me too

Re: hurricane ????
i was thinking of driving up sunday hoping to get infront of the storm . driving the dodge lodge in a cross wind is like a sheet of plywood with wheels on it .

Re: hurricane ????
We ran at Bridgehampton during Hurricane Bob. Weaving down the front straight to avoid the larger puddles from sideways rain. Great fun!!

All entrants should have received notice of 1.5 hr. delay to schedule for Monday.

Re: hurricane ????
Drive up on Saturday and party down!
Actually, if you want to come to Vermont for a night, we can caravan down on Sunday morning. At that time, I'm hoping things will still be drivable. Looking forward to a stormy campout Sunday night in the infield!
