with a storm getting ready to play with east coast land and property is there any thoughts to moving the race to the following week to help boost attendance?

i believe there are a bunch of racers who want to drive down and attend live but are concerned about getting home/leaving family behind so to speak???

I hope everyone is safe and sound through all that may come their way.

working with the NC DOT it's going to be a busy weekend; we're already talking about go to a 24Hr. shift for the weekend & on top of that I felt the Earth Quake that was in VA. today

Yes I felt the earthquake also Shade and I was looking at moving the race to next weekend because of the storm. I will watch the weather Thursday and make an anoucement then just incase we get lucky enough for it to turn out into the Atlantic.

with working with Progress Energy (electric utility), all hands are on deck for Irene. Doubtful I will be able to attend this weekend or next as we have family travel plans for labor day weekend.

I want be able to make the drive this weekend and next weekend I will be out of town myself.

I think from talking to Carolina the Hurricane is going to stay far enough out to have the race. Good Luck to our coastal friends hope it passes with no major damage.

Yeah, you guys should be fine. However where I live, we are under a hurricane warning. Looks like I will be missing this race. See you next time.

I think they are calling for 75mph winds here. Carolina, hope you got your track tied down. Be safe my friends.

Perfect conditions for parasailing or kiteboarding any takers?
