Being my first time, I'm going beginners with my friend that has a '13 GT Mustang. Did 1st autox in Salinas n 1st 1/4 mile drag at Sonoma Raceway recently (12.2 with intake n axle backs). See you guys there, just not on the track. I'll be up there one day, just at a slower pace because work and funds and lack of experience.

It looks like there is a 80% chance of rain at Thunderhill on Thursday. Is everyone that signed up for the track day still planning to attend? Will they run sessions in the rain or wait until the rain stops before running sessions?

Yes sessions are run in the wet or dry unless track personnel determine

Remember that we are running the 3 mile Thunderhill Thursday and that track dries out incredibly fast. So having some intermittent showers etc. is not something that I would be too concerned about especially if you are running on treaded tires.

My buddy Al (RocketJ) called Dev at HOD last evening. Dev told Al that we are running rain or shine. The only exception is if it is an absolute down pour and the cars are hydroplaning. And no, the windows won't be down in the rain. See you all for lunch in Maxwell today or at the track tomorrow. It will be fun. Keith
