I hope all our CA friends are OK
I see the news about the fires, and I hope all of you are OK. You can all ship your race cars and parts here for safe keeping if you want, especially any new Hoosiers. Let the house burn, but get the race cars in a safe place. Seriously, take care everone.

Los Angeles fire worsens, 10,000 homes threatened
The fire started on Wednesday above the exclusive community of La Canada Flintridge Photo: AP
Residentsin the north were urged to evacuate as the 4-day-old blaze nearly doubled in size overnight and headed into the Antelope Valley. To the south, mandatory evacuations remained in effect.
Some 500 commercial buildings were also in danger, as was Mount Wilson, the nexus for key telecommunications facilities, including TV and radio transmission towers, the US Forest Service said.
The fire that started on Wednesday above the exclusive community of La Canada Flintridge was only 5 per cent contained but firefighters were hopeful that they would benefit on Sunday from slightly cooler temperatures, just below 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37 Celsius). The cause of the fire is being investigated.
Dense smoke filled the skies over the foothills and prompted authorities to issue health warnings for the Los Angeles basin.
Fire officials said the fire had consumed more than 55 square miles of dry brush in the western portion of the Angeles National Forest.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, California's governor, declared a state of emergency in Los Angeles County last week in response to four fires in the area.
