I will ask about two races Saturday, but given recent events and the way they have run things the last several years… I wouldn’t count on it. I’ll keep looking at my weather app as you probably all will. I won’t be bringing the RV, but will have a 28 foot enclosed trailer and a couple canopies… Assuming we will only get one race in…. IF it takes some of the sting out and IF Rick wants to coordinate a one day event as a make up race… I’ll tow up to Mason Dixon…

One caveat here is the rain. Ryan just told me he checked and it says 80% chance of rain. I'll look tomorrow and see as we get closer. Thanks Rob for all your work. |

I will be coming for sure (unless the weather says 100% rain for the whole day and night). I got to hear Rob's Chal run yesterday and want to see it run BADLY and help out if I can. Hard to see it wouldn't run in the 6s and 10s in the 1/4. One of the best sounding Slants I've ever heard. I also can reallly use a cruise/race trip to help clear my head. Dad died on Saturday and it has been a tough journey for him, my mom and for us... See some/all of you in a few days! Lou |

How is the Knoxville track Management? could an extra race scheduled there?? I would concur with Rob that it probably will not happen this weekend with 2 eliminations for the Slant 6 class. |

Does anyone planning to attend have any MSD RPM chips they would be willing to let me borrow at Clay City? If Dennis doesn’t make it, I want to have a back up plan. I want to raise my launch RPM from 3700 to something closer to 4500. |

Rob, Ryan probably does. I can ask him tomorrow, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind letting you borrow them. |

I'm doing everything I can to get there. I want to see it with the 8000 chip in it. |

The weather app on my phone shows up to a 30% chance of rain for a couple hours mid afternoon (2-4) on Saturday. I’m sure you guys have more detailed and accurate weather trackers.
I plan to be at the track fairly early Saturday morning. |

Gate opens at 6pm Friday night.
Just Checking on gate times again, as this may affect when I travel / Hike etc.10 am Saturday. Dennis says Gate for Saturday is 10 Am which is fine, but the flyer says 2PM. Those few hours might affect my plans quite a bit. Rob, can you confirm the gate time? I know the track folks maybe are bit more difficult to pin down on details as compared to the Old days (1999-2018) I am not sure if the gates are earlier with the car show and swap meet happening at the same time? Thank you, Greg |

I have the chips for Rob! Who's bringing the dip? Yes, gate time will be good, since I'll be driving early Sat from home. Lou |

Lou If gate times are later in the day, and racing does not start until 4PM, and you want to meet up for a Sat. trip to Natural Bridge we can drop a car and then go up there for a pre-lunch/ midday hike. I am likley going to drive a bit overnight, as I am now going to school on Friday. |

Sorry to say, but the weather I am seeing is not nearly as positive looking as you guys are seeing. I just talked to Ryan and we are out. Sorry guys it is just too far for us. It looks good Friday night! Lou don't bring the head until Knoxville. |
