Weather.com this morning says 26 for a high on Sun. 80% chance of snow.

I'll ride the track in whatever as I don't stop for anything...well except dust that is. (I do like to see.) Nothing would be better memory making than running a race in adverse conditions because we all run the same track. Now having said all that I am thinking about the Pee Wee race just after the sun breaks, well if it even breaks out at all. The weather looks like freezing rain ? snow mix. I am thinking about the rig with the trailer in tow on those slick roads coming home and looking out the window in my mirror to see my trailer trying to pass me and airing it out in the oncoming traffic lane. That's the kinda stuff that gives me white knuckles.

The weather is snow / freezing rain. If I know Dan, he is sitting tight as not to cancel too early and blow our race unnecessarily and hang on and call the ball before all of us need to pull out on Saturday from home. :wink:

While i don't necessarily want to ride in a ice storm, i don't want the race to be canceled either. Catch 22

I bet that PM race was awesome, I could tell it was starting to get good. But those first few laps, did me in for the rest of the race... way to many close calls with trees due to the front end wanting to push, due to frozen dirt.

As of right now it looks like Saturday would be the day to race. It will be both warmer and half the chance of precipitation.

Well if you want to stay optimistic don't watch any weather news. Lezak is getting pretty excited for Sunday. That's never a good thing.

I'll ride in any condition but I've about had it with cold and snow! Hate to see the promoter lose out on a good turn out because of snow rain and cold, almost everyone I've talked to have already wrote this weekend off!

Looks like Dan moved it to march 9th.
