I just made it 11. several more folks that usually show, not entered yet. Wonder if we can make SM a run group by itself?

From listening to the Todd Howell last night, it seems like the WEATHER could be dominating.

I doubt that would bother you with "Subaru all-wheel drive." :D

The only thing I dislike more than bad weather is people who don't mind bad weather. :P

Well, in the rain in Nash, the Victoracers were not very good. I spun twice in one run.

Their lot is notoriusly slick, IMHO. Hopefully ours will be better.

ORM is actually not bad in the rain as far as traction goes.

Based of the forcast, "SM" might stand for SubMerged on Sunday.

Best put a snorkel on the Impala there! Does anyone have those new Hoosier rain tires they just released? It would be a good time to try them out!

It will require a snorkel all right. This is one barge that just won't float.

59 entries so far. 14 are either "SM" or "Novice SM"; that's damn near 1/4th of the entries. Looks like a strong class.
