OK as the topic states, we might be racing the first day of points tomorrow, but looks very doubtful at this point.

March 5th: 1st day of points Rained out

March 19th: 2nd day of points Rained out

April 23rd: 3rd day of points:

Weather forcast from New Jesrey Weather.com (http://www.newjerseyweather.com)

Sunday...Mostly cloudy. Showers in the morning...Then a chance of showers or thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 60s. South winds 10 to 15 mph.

Sunday Night...Mostly cloudy in the evening...Then becoming partly cloudy. A 50 percent chance of showers. Lows around 50. Southeast winds 5 to 10 mph...Becoming northeast after midnight.

7online (NY news) is calling for afternoon t-storms WPVI TV in Philly is saying the same for E-Town.

Racing was called off on March 19th becuase it rained until 2 o'clock but wasn't raining at 6:45am when they called it.

Looks like May 14th will be the first day of points, but I have my fingers crossed for tomorrow

Today...Rain this morning...Then partly cloudy with a chance of showers or thunderstorms this afternoon. Highs in the mid 60s. South winds 10 to 15 mph.

Tonight...Partly cloudy with a 40 percent chance of showers. Lows around 50. East winds 5 to 10 mph.

But the track says they're still going to try to race. This day's either going to be okay or it's really going to suck. They better not cancel it after I've driven the 45 minutes down to there and bought my snack food at King's.

Called the track early this morning serveral times and finally at 7:45 they said they are going to race.

Pack up and go!

Get there, pay the $30, go to tech and ready to race, then it starts raining, again. Started to rain while drive thru Trenton, all up 195 and on the turnpike, they is starts to rain harder.

Get to the track, just a mist.

Daytona shows up. After a few downpours, about 10:45 we dry off our cars, becuase the track is getting dried off and it starts to rain again.

At about 2 o clock I say, man I'm hungry, we would have eaten by now, we go up to the food stand, and start to walk over to the photo shop and at 2:15, they called it.

They was only about 50 cars there today, between ALL the classes. Street had the most with about 12 cars. So to update

POINTS DAY #3, APRIL 23, RAINED OUT

Good news, Daytona and I are tied for the bracket finals in September :lol:

O I forgot the best part.

As soon as I pulled on NJ RT 33, the sun came out :Noooo:

Sun the whole way home, Sunny right now in Newtown.

So I finally hooked up the A/F gauge in the Delta and put the new registration sticker on the Alero, walked the dog, and did some laundry.

That was my race day, 6 hours at the track, no runs, no time shots, no points, but I have the sticker on my plate, a work A/F gauge, and a happy dog :P
