I am pretty sure Steve said he was going.;)Sounds like we're getting a pretty good group together. This could be cool. Something else that may sound attractive to some, last week there was not a big crowd at all. We darned near had the track to ourselves. This translates into lots of pass opps.:beer:
I just thought of one more add in for a good reason to go. Ennis is about to close for the season. The 14th and then the 22 are the only two left after this Saturday for test and tune. Maybe some practice can keep those trophies from fall classic at home.:tu:

Do they let motorcycles run at the same time? I'd throw it in back if they do.
What time is everyone showing up?

I wanna go! I can't, though. I'm still not allowed to leave my house due to pneumonia. Yesterday was the first time I've been out of my house since Monday, and that was to go to the doctor. I'm sentenced to stay in the house over the weekend, and I won't be standing outside for long periods of time either for a while.
My official position on pneumonia? It sucks.

I plan to go, but 8am is awfully early. I need to get a baseline benchmark of my stock truck performance.
Still looking for some solid directions.

Not side by side with the cars, but they do allow motorcycles to take their turns. They just hold back the cars.

Although, gonna have to count me out now. On the way home from watching the matrix, after hooters, a drunk driver hit me :flaming: . My week old lightning is already on a tow truck as I write this. Only about 6-7k damage not including frame, still unsure. So no total loss for me, i gotta drive a rebuilt truck now :vomit: .
The drunk driver and one of his 2 passengers are in critical condition. I have small aches and bruises. Oh and my air bag didn't deploy!?!
We'll see how it all plays out. I just want a new truck.

Bummer - Glad you're OK though. Trucks can be replaced and if the insurance company does you right, you'll have money left over for some cool mods. ;)
Ron - I'm going to try and make it. :cool:

That's cool Dennis,
There appears to be a problem developing that none of us has control over...http://www.weather.com/weather/detail/USTX0430?dayNum=1
What does everyone think. I am willing to go for it, but if it rains all darned night and then is raining in the morning, I don't know for sure that they will get the track dried out. I am a bit worried because the crowds on Sat. are so small, that the track guys don't have alot of inspiration to keep it open.
Thoughts anyone???????????
Rocks:(
My vote is to try again on the 21st. Is that Bracket event on the 14th open to anyone? (Not that I can make that Sat anyway)

I don't have the schedule at the office with me, but I thought that the 14th(which is Friday) was LTI(test&tune) again. If it is, it is open to all. I was also thinking the 22nd was the next LTI(test&tune) on Sat. which is the last for the season.
I donno what to do. I am pretty hard headed about racing. I am just stubborn enough to go out and wait for them to open...LOL. I just didn't know that everyone else would be that commited. I guess it all depends on if this darned front gets through by late afternoon. Ennis does dry out pretty quick, so if it isn't raining tonight, they will probably open(as long as it's not raining in the A.M.)
I plan on calling them this afternoon and see what they say. It wouldn't do any good to call any sooner since they don't know either.
Ya know what they say about Texas...If you don't like the weather, wait for an hour, it'll change.
Rocks:beer:
You got it right, there is also a Bracket event that Sat, the 15th, which is what I was asking about.
PS I'm not that committed :(

I spoke with the Motorplex a few minutes ago. They said they were gonna try to run tomorrow, but if it's raining in the morning, they'll probably just shut 'er down. If that does happen, the next Test & Tune is next Friday night(Nov. 14, gates open at 6:00).
I plan on getting up in the morning around 7:00. If it's raining then I'll hang it up 'til next Friday. Dammit!:mad: I was really looking forward to tomorrow! In the meantime, I'm still keeping my fingers crossed....

I'd rather wait 'til next week, versus wasting half a day loading up, driving out there and not even getting to make a pass.
