Nuked and I were talking about this last night. Gates open at 11AM, Test N Tune from 12-5PM. Weather right now is dry for a couple days before and then 40% chance of rain for Saturday, itself. I believe racing is $20 and spectators are like $7.
Let's leave from in front of Triple S at 9:15AM. For those that don't know where that is, it's right off the Pierpont exit off I-68. Coming from south/west, take exit 7, left at the light off the exit, left at the next light. It'll be a lot easier to get out of there as a group than Lowes was, since we don't have to cross traffic and get stuck at that damn light.
Who's in? :good:

I was planning on going. The "other site" already has a list of people that are going. I wasn't planning on meeting up with any of them though. My new tires should be here wed or thur so hopefully I can get them on there before we go. I may have to wait and get them mounted on saturday, so I might not be able to meet up with everyone.

Well I found the problem and got it fixed! I guess when Kisner put everything back after my clutch install he didn't realize that the main bolt going into my rack needed a brass O ring on each side of the bolt instead both of them on one side so I put the other O ring where it was suppose to be and no more leaking!

Ahh.. that would be cool. From what I've seen, the little current weather block at the top just turns into like a storm cloud and says "Rained Out" or something like that. Maybe next time we see it, we can make note of the name of the image and scrape the source for it or something?
If I see it canceled, or another mod, lets add "Canceled" to the thread title, in the meantime.

Looking at the weather now, there's no way all this garbage can miss us. That damn cold front has to go by us somehow. It's not gonna rain all day but even a 5-minute downpour anytime between now and noon tomorrow is gonna get it canceled. They'll pull the "the grass is too wet" excuse again.
I'm not gonna come up early in the morning to go. If it ends up a nice day and some people go then have a great time! There's still 6.5 months left to go this year anyway.
I'm in 100% for dinner at 6 tomorrow night and going to Mexico or at least cruising around afterwards :good: We'll figure out the place tomorrow.. please chime in if you're coming so we can get some kind of headcount to determine our options.

I will be down for the dinner (plan B). I agree with Scott, I really doubt they run tommorow. Would be a total waste to drive up for nothing, to only drive back in the rain. Stefen, you gonna come down to Mexico tommorow night? If not call me tommorow and I will come up to Clarksburg and look at the subie.

So, is me waiting at Triple S going to be a waste? haha.. anyone still gonna head out? As of right now it looks like the rain is going to stay to the direct LEFT of New Alexandria, PA... just watching the radar.

^^I called PRP earlier and they said that they weren't canceling based on a forecast and that the website and the answering machine would be updated by 9am this morning. So it's cutting it real close, maybe we should push our departure time back a little bit?

Hmm.. Idk.. if everyone's in morgantown it should be easy.. ish to get to Triple S by 9:15 ( I dont even know where it is but I guess i'll find it haha) I'm just worried if we "push our time back a little bit" then some ppl won't check this thread and they'll think no one's going if they come at 9:15

Haha, 811 Freshman, 413 Sophomore.
I'm really hoping i'm not just a wishful thinker but it really looks damn good outside, and the radar looks like the rain is moving farther and farther away from PRP.
Damnit Kelsey I hope we're not the only two planing on going haha.. the big group is what makes PRP fun

I'm not going to go if nobody is there and it's going to rain out. Just because they dont cancel it now, doesnt mean they wont cancel when it starts raining at the track.
Plus I have an input shaft bearing on the way out. :err:
oh well, Next time!

Kelsey, I just got your message and couldn't believe you had posted in here.. must not have read my post from last night, haha. I tried to call you right back twice and it said your phone was disconnected (though you just called 2 minutes before). No way I'm going, couldn't make it now if I had to anyway.

Do you all want to just go to the car show? I stopped by on my way back from picking up breakfast, and there's already 10-15 cars there. We could turn it into a mini meet? :)
WVU engineering students to host car show

Kelsey called me and she's sitting there by herself. hahahahhahahah
I'm still in bed. I'm gonna wait until about 10-11 before we decide if we are going or not. The racing doesn't even start until 12.

I might be up for mexico tonight but just a heads up to anyone that wants to run...I can only go up to 115ish bc shifting to 5th fast gives me a nasty grind so I can only take it to the top of 4th.

Just talked to Kelsey, and she's down for the car show! So far, it's Nuked, Neesy, Kelsey, Cody, and I.

I would of been down for the car show if someone told us sooner. I would have to wash my car inside and out for it to presentable at a car show. By that time it would 1-2pm. I guess me and stefan and spencer could wash the cars and just cruise up. I'll talk to them and see what they want to do.

Talked to Stefan, and I think it's safe to add Brandon, Steven, Stefan, and Spencer to the list. :D

well a couple of us are at PRP now. We've already got 5 runs in and it just started to rain unfortunately. by the time we get back to morgantown it looks like it will have let up already lol.
QuickSilverZ06
04-26-2008, 05:20 PM
I'll have my camera for the Mexico trip :good: Raining right now but it's not gonna last long. Get this front outta here and the sun back out & we'll be ready to go after dinner.
Damn Redline, 5 runs in 2 hours at PRP has to be some kind of record! Sucks to get rained out but that's more than the 4 runs you usually get in 5 hours anyway.
REDLINE
04-26-2008, 06:10 PM
Yup. I was pretty stoked. Just kept getting faster and faster times. It sucked when it rained and they said that's it folks, but I wasn't disappointed because we still got more runs than we normally would in 5 hours.
Where/when do you all plan to meet up after dinner to head to Mexico? I think I'd be up for racing you to only 115ish DarkEvo, as long as it's not from a dig lol. Or if we go from a dig give me like 5 cars to start with haha.
DarkEvo9
04-26-2008, 07:03 PM
Sounds good man...we can just go from a 35 roll up to 115

04-27-2008, 09:42 AM
Yeah I was there with Chad and Jive, lot's of fun, thanks for everyone who said they'd come then didn't haha.
That car show was way more fun though! I think we had a decent turnout from WVM! 8 or 9 cars or something.
I haven't watched those videos from Mexico last night, I hope there was carnage, I saw some of the other comments. :headbang:
