Hi Dan,
Trish is pretty bummed because she always looks forward to seeing you two. We just cancelled our hotel as well. I got registered for Drag Week again this year, and my son will be going with me. Thanks for the well wishes. Hope to see you guys next year!

Keith, that's funny because here in east central Ohio we've had a 20% chance of rain and it's been raining/drizzling all day..lol  Being a weatherman is the only job where you can be wrong 100% of the time and still keep your job :)

The local station is now saying rain for Friday AM, to end around 9:00 AM. Saturday partly sunny with a chance of late afternoon shower. High in the mid to high 50's. The forecast does change with time.

Rain or shine, I'm on my way in about 30 minutes.  Got some really cool new stuff to show.  Anybody know how late you'll be able to get into the track on Thursday?  I'd like to dump the trailer at the track before heading to the hotel...

Still have an engine to run on dyno tomorrow.  As soon as he is buttoned up I will head out.  Probably stop partway and arrive sometime Friday.

Got my Comet in the trailer with the battery charging. I figure rain or shine it will be fun. Like Barry I'm leaving after work tomorrow and stopping along the way. Should roll in for gate opening. I look forward to meeting you guys. I've been there 3 years in row but missed the last 2. Never stood in the cold rain, it was windy the last time. Today in Detroit it was 60 percent chance of rain. I got rained on driving to work then it got nice.

Well the wiener dog may be right. Cool tomorrow with rain showers in morning. Saturday may turn out fairly nice. A chance for an afternoon shower, high in low 60's.

We are here at Comfort Inn... nice weather, too warm for my flannel shirt!
 Had a great day. went to the bar for lunch with Ray Barton, spent  couple hours with Leonard Long getting the grand tour and went all around Maple Grove Raceway. Went to S&K Speed on Lawn Guyland yesterday and had pizza in SoHo, so foggy we couldn't see the seventh floor of Empire State Building or even see the Statue of Liberty at all.

It is warm and sunny here the evening before. Yesterday we had biblical rain, fog then sun, a race night have been delayed, not stopped. Today didn't match the forecast from yesterday.

Rain at 5am that is all dried up at 8am and starts again at 7pm is a correct forecast... they don't know, it's still a pin the tail on the donkey science.

Don't be a wuss... get on that plane!!  :P That goes for the rest of ya..

I'm here.  Great day for traveling. Just had some steak on the grill for dinner!  About 40 cars here already.  Let the fun begin.

Ay, cannot bring beer through the airport security... unless in 3oz shampoo bottles... then it tastes soapy.  ???

So Kevin, I see two trucks with Minn plates here, is the red one with a trailer yours?
