I agree, I dont want to drive 2 hours each way to find out we can't race because of the rain.

If it does not clear maybe you could meet me at CSCS this Sunday in GB? I am hoping the weather breaks buy then.

If not we need to try another Fri.

I decided not to go lapping this Fri as well.

I think we should call this Fri off and plan for another date.
Lots of other things to try and make this weekend, like the speedster meet and CSCS, (mikes gf friends wedding ) anyway.

Ontario Z guys are doing a drag day end of June maybe that would be good?

If not we can try to make a different Fri in Cayuga.

okay guys, i just talked to my buddy and he really wants to run his s13 (against me no less) so i'll still be going.

according to the hourly forecast, it's clear from 6 pm on, so *hopefully* it should be clear on the track by the time we hit it if anyone still wants to go, i'll be there tm nite

it's a built CA18DET, definitely a quick car and will spank a stock z easily. we've done a few "fun" runs before and i still pull hard on him, but it's definitely a quick car

Does he have a turbo on it?

I will check the weather tomorrow afternoon. If you are going and its looking good I will try and make it. Getting presure at home to do house stuff because the in laws are coming over next week from Quebec.

What time do you expect to be there?

Lapping stays open, but I'm pretty sure that they close the quarter mile strip if it's raining.
