Rain at Maple Grove?? (1 Viewer)

[Sully]

Gee, it's raining at Maple Grove - I'll bet that's never happened before!! (not)

There are at least two dates you can bet on in Pennsylvania - Groundhog Day and rain at Maple Grove. Maybe the earlier date will work out a little better next year?

Fri, chance of AM rain, Sat and Sun. Nice 78-82 degrees.

Do not forget the fog and dew in the morning either. It will take a while to get started each morning as well.

Racing for today was cancelled.....

The new dates will probably mean trading rain for 90-100 degree weather.

Looking at the forecast it looks like teams need to make the most of their qualifying runs, not sure how many chances they will get.

Now I know why I never plan on going to Reading!

In Southeastern PA, it's clearing very nicely. I am about 68 miles from the track! Looks good for the rest of the weekend. Can you say record runs!!!

 

[Jim]

Am watching TV now and they are saying more rain on the way.

The sun just broke through in Phila.

This is one thing I won't miss about the September Reading race! I hope they are able to get some racing in today.

 

[DrRocket]

They might be able to pull off one round hopefully.

The latest radar shows a bit of clearing in the area and a gap before the next round of showers. If they can get the track dried in time, who knows? Anyone at the track to tell us what the conditions are right now??

at 2:30 its pooring! i can't see any chance of runs today. right now there is about 1 inch of standing water in the pits.

 

[DrRocket]

Thanks for the report, Bruce.

I think.

I guess it's safe to say that NHRA finally moving this race was a good thing!
