I'm worried about it, also. Ther current forcast has it coming right over me. I need to spend today getting my hurricane suppilies together. and boarding up my windows. I have work to do on customers vehicles, and if the storm delays the work, I may not be able to make it to the race. I was sick a couple of days, last week, and am way behind on work, as it is.
I will keep you posted.

Good luck, Charlie! Hope you can make it if everything stays calm and collected.

Frank, hope you can too. Let's keep up on this as the week goes on. Hard to predict anything 6 days out...

Here is my deal. I am planning on being there for the Fri night TnT. However, I don't relish the idea of driving most of the way (400-500 miles)in a steady, heavy rain. I will leave, Florida, and see what the weather is like, on the way up. I might say "nuts" and turn around, and come back home. Fay is acting just like a woman, and can't make up her mind, what she is going to do.

Loaded and ready to go. Will be leaving at 7 AM Sat morning to go to Merils place. The wife has cooked up a lot of food for the racers along with Ella. Plan on being at Meril's for the big feed before races Sat. evening. Meril's brother-in law passed away and his funeral is Sat Afternoon but they still plan on being at the races. Lets keep their family in our prayers.
