i'm sure that weather isn't the only profession. can't think of others right now, but i'm sure they aren't alone.

40-60% chance......we should reschedule?

like davidv said, they will want to get paid so would it be better to have it on the 18th with the 10% chance of rain?

Unhappy

Accuweather.com hourly report states no rain between 3pm and 12am. But on the other weather site noaa.gov pretty much reports the same forecast as weather.com. So thats 2 against 1, not looking good. Rain sucks

I feel bad for Todd, He has a hard decision to make. I hope everyone keeps in mind that he doesn't control the weather and whatever happens he's looking out for everyone's best interest.

Todd-the sooner the call the better, I want to call and reschedule Clarion ASAP if possible. Id hate to be in your shoes right now.

Of course if you call it off it wont rain and vice versa.

I completely blame Todd! This is ridiculous that he can't control the rain! I mean C'mon who cant control the rain!

j/k Todd- definitely do what you think is best man, plus its your area so you will probably know the weather up there in the mountains better than most of us.

Hey Guys,

Sorry to inform you, but im going to have to call off the drag night for the 11th.

I hope everyone understands, The last thing i want is for people to drive the whole way up here and then it starts to rain and they shut the track down.

Im waiting for a call back from the owner of the track to see if the 18th is still going to be the reschedule date...I might have to move it back to another day.

I will keep you guys posted.. Again i apologize for having to make this call.

If anyone has any issues with wanting a refund please PM me.. Once i hear back from the owner i will have a better idea for the reschedule date.

Later
Todd

Man that sucks Todd. I was all excited. I was going to go pick up my Z today too. Looking at accuweather though, most of the rain is s'posed to be between 9a-12p. Then a 39% chance between 12p-3p, they don't have anything after 3pm though. Either way, let me know. I'm still there!

No refund necessary. I will be happy with a aceman rain check. Good for one admission to any aceman drag racing day.
