Great Lakes Dragway September 22nd

Tomorrow looks just as bad.. Pretty much looks like a no-go this week. If by some miracle the forecast clears up today, we'll still go, but I doubt it.

Sorry you guys. I was hoping your weatherman would be wrong. I'll still keep my fingers crossed for ya's.

Well we can pick a Friday. Looking at the calendar and October 2nd its fun racing and snowmobile drags. That might be ok. I just have to make sure I have no wedding crap for my friend to do that night.

If not any Friday in October would work.

Oct. 2 Fri Fun Racing/Snowmobile Drags 5pm-10pm
Oct. 9 Fri Fun Racing 5pm-10pm
Oct. 16 Fri REAL STREET DRAGS 4pm-10pm
Oct. 23 Fri Fun Racing Open for all 5pm-10pm
Oct. 30 Fri Fun Racing Open for all 3pm-8pm

Friday's blow. I'm not driving up there and forking over the dough if I can only run 4-5 times.

Don't rule out today yet!! I would be up for going next Tuesday if today doesn't work. It should be cooler and drier.

Ok no Friday's. Hopefully its ok today but if not you guys have fun next Tuesday.

Yeah, next week look great so far...

I'm still watching todays, also.......

I'm still in. Hopefully the weather makes up it's mind by 2. That will be my cut off to make it up there before traffic.

I can give it until about 3 pm. I am all for going next Tuesday which looks pretty good right now.

I am getting away from the computer a bit. I sent my number to a few of you guys through PM. Hope we get to go, if not another time.

I hope you get it taken care of

The forecast isn't looking too good. I am not sure I am up for driving up with a 50% + chance of rain tonight. I can make it tomorrow, but next Tuesday may even be better. Lower temps may mean lower ET's.

Looks like a go to me.

its raining pretty good up here

MONTELLO... BERLIN... FOND DU LAC...

SHEBOYGAN... BARABOO... PORTAGE... WISCONSIN DELLS... BEAVER DAM...

WEST BEND... PORT WASHINGTON... DODGEVILLE... MADISON... JEFFERSON...

LAKE MILLS... WAUKESHA... BROOKFIELD... MILWAUKEE... DARLINGTON...

MONROE... JANESVILLE... BELOIT... ELKHORN... LAKE GENEVA... RACINE...

KENOSHA 100 PM CDT TUE SEP 22 2009 .



NOW...

LOOK FOR MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN TO AFFECT PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN THIS AFTERNOON. THE HEAVY RAINFALL WAS LOCATED GENERALLY FROM A MADISON... TO JOHNSON CREEK... TO NEW BERLIN LINE. THE BACK EDGE OF THE RAIN WAS GENERALLY LOCATED FROM A LONE ROCK... TO ALBANY... TO LAKE GENEVA LINE... AND INTO FAR NORTHEAST ILLINOIS... MOVING NORTHEAST AT 20 MPH.



THE RAIN SHOULD END FROM A WISCONSIN DELLS... TO MADISON... TO KENOSHA LINE BY 2 PM. IT SHOULD THEN REACH A MONTELLO... TO WATERTOWN... TO SOUTH MILWAUKEE LINE BY 3 PM. EXPECT MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL RATES OF 1 TO 2 INCHES AN HOUR AT TIMES. TOTAL RAINFALL IN SOME AREAS WILL REACH 2 TO 3 INCHES... WITH ISOLATED HIGHER AMOUNTS.



THE HEAVY RAIN WILL CAUSE FLOODING OF ROADS AND STREAMS... ESPECIALLY IN URBAN AREAS. MOTORISTS ARE URGED TO SLOW DOWN... AND DO NOT DRIVE THROUGH FLOODED ROADS.

So what does this mean for Union Grove? Are we off for today? Are we on for tommorrow? Are we moving it to next Tuesday?

Well.... Is anyone there. I just called the track and they wont know till 4 if they are racing.

No im not gonne go it s wet here in vernon hills and only worse up north...shit !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
