Cartek Corvette Challenge RAINED OUT
The only thing thats has been able to stop the great success of Cartek Corvette Challenged happened tonight. RAIN!!!!!!!!!!
42 RACERS were primed and ready to stage when the skys opened up.
Due to the heavy rains the event was cancelled and reschedule for September 22.
Since the first round was not started/completed the points standing remains as is.
So mark that date and get ready for 9/22.

John,
By the time we hit the PA Tpk,I thought I was behind the wheel of a submarine.Fortunately,the rain ended pretty quickly over here.
Sorry we couldn't get the races started,but at least I got in 4 runs
during the time trials and finally think I'm catching on( 3 runs with RTs in the 0.5 sec range and only one red light).

Luckily I made it home alright! I had NO WIPERS! So much for it being a SUNNY DAY DRIVER EH? :D. Also lucky I had 10 coats of Zaino on the windshield to make the water bead off.
On a better note, I was snapping pictures like a maniac and will scan them in later in the day.

Got home about 1:00 AM. That's what happens when you hang around with right crowd! ;)
Maybe in September the Temp and humidity will be a little better and the Mackey Machine will be running.
I'm still suprised that there was such a good turnout. Looks like the Corvette Challenge is the place to race.
See you next time.
