I knew when I saw this thread you were going to mention RAIN! 
It's nice and bright here today in London, but what good is that for the peeps in Baytown... I hope there is some racing today... Thanks for the update Alan.

Re: I Can't Believe It!!!!!!!
Alan,
I know this might sound stupid, but is it possible to broadcast something on the net cast, like maybe 15 minute updates, to let us not there know what's happening... instead of just the hum?????

I was thinking that also, Alan can you and Bob just talk until the racing starts again? Ok maybe not the whole time, but just a little? |

Re: I Can't Believe It!!!!!!!
Michael,
The only way I could talk that long without cars going down the track, would be to tell jokes and stories that would get my tossed off of the air-LOL

Re: I Can't Believe It!!!!!!!
I've known of Helicopters being used here at Tulsa to dry the track.. But that was before the jet dryers.. Helicopters move alot of air!!!

I was planning to do Houston this year, I'm kind of glad my funds weren't up to scratch... 11 hour flight for more of what I already get here most days... No thanks.
Hang in there Russell  |
