Latest forecast from channel 9. cloudy, 60's, widely scattered showers moving in after 3 PM.
It wouldn't be a Mopar Show without a chance of rain.

The weather network is showing a 20% chance of rain....that means 80% chance it won't rain. I like those odds !  :icon_smile_big: Unless the forecast takes a dump i'll be coming down.  :icon_smile_big:

Met Ron, FLG and NH Charger at the event, here are some shots of Rons car, He made the first round in his class (we left before the second round), I have vid of his first three passes, will post later.  Two cars went into the wall before we left.  One was a Nice Duster, and the other an early el camino.

Lil bit of a sprinkle at one point, but very nice temperature and a tail wind for the guys running at the track.

Had a good time. Met some boards members I haven't seen for a while, Ron, Jim (Beer), Jen and her hubby Ed, Bee Orange, Charger Floyd, Warlock, Randy (70Battlehorse). Nice to meet Frank and his girlfriend.

The track looked very greasy. Ed told me that the duster that hit the wall was a all original survivor.

I'll post some pics when I get home from work.
