I got all-season tires so little snow and/or ice isn't going to stop me. I'll definitely show up if you guys will.

... it all depends on the cart. If the cart hasn't been set up in awhile (suspension out of whack, tires worn, engine powerless) then they just handle well. I got that car more than once. But then again maybe it was me! [/B][/QUOTE]

Hey Glenn, I have only done 2 races, and one of them was in a somewhat "busted" cart -- alignment was off and steering rattled and pulled from side to side. It is understandable though given the kind of abuse they take.

Power drifting = FUN! FUN! FUN! Especially when it doesn't come at our stooks' expenses.

Usually I don't let weather stop me, but I just saw the forcast for the Boston area @ 6"-8", and knowing the cleaning crew; I am going to opt out.

I'm sorry, but I really don't feel like fighting the weather and then fighting on the track. I've done that in the past at Lime Rock, and it's not fun. You need a day to rest from the driving to drive well. I'm too competative to just relax and enjoy myself.

If everyone does decide to postpone, I will eagerly wait for a new date --- it's no fun doing it by yourself.

John

ps. if you want a great thing on your tray that gives you the local temperature/weather all the time --- or the time you're connected to the net --- use "The Weatherbug" @

S2000 Owner,
I have to agree with you. The way things look now, maybe we should set another date. There is no sense in trying to push it. It's a given that the South Shore area is going to get hit hard. It's time to reschedule.

How about Feb. 4, 10 or 11 as a new date? Same time, ~4 PM?

It looks like you're the de-facto co-ordinator. I would even say next Saturday as the long range weather shows 40's for Wed. - Thurs.
