Worried about the weather though

Ya this week has been crazy. Torrential downpours then sun. Just the type of weather to ruin races. They may be trying to finish this one on Wednesday.

Welcome to the South in the summer.

July is the wettest month of the year here. We average 5.5 inches

It rained so much yesterday right over the track, in Hampton, McDonough, & Griffin that we might be good through tomorrow. It rained again late last night here in SW Spalding County.

Today has been nice.

Believe me I know. Texas, La. and Ga since 1967.

It poured here 2 hours ago. But I’m north.

So ya maybe Hampton will be spared tomorrow.

Frustrating thing about NASCAR is one 5 minute burst delays things forever. They get it dry and then it happens again.

It seems they want to set Atlanta up to fail by when they put the races.

March could be 70 and sunny but could also be 35 and freezing rain.
July is hit and miss.
October would be best here.
Oh well just rambling.

July is fine. I'd prefer a night race though if it's gonna be in the summer.

Agreed on October. Most gorgeous weather of the year . Mid-April would also be optimal IMO.

Looking at the hourly, it' 55-60% for rain from 8 till 3 in the afternoon tomorrow, then it drops off from 4 on.

October is typically the driest month in the south. It’s usually a sweet spot between hurricanes winding down and the rainy winter.

Just watched it.

It wasn't intentional.

SRX related, but I became a Hailie Deegan fan tonight. She dumped Paul Tracy w/3 laps left after Tracy cut her off and nearly wrecked her about 20 laps before when Deegan had position on him on the inside. Plus she's cute.

Of course Tracy whines about it afterwards.

Marco Andretti won at Slinger.

Wreckhouse in a wreck w/Suarez who blew up.

At the track, weather is all around and south of here. Hopefully it stays away.

There is a hole in the track right at the start of the dogleg. They are putting a sealant in to do a quick fix. I have race control on the scanner and they are almost done. Should be back to green here w/in 10 mins.

It's time to repave it.

Ok. NASCAR came over the radio. They are gonna run the jet dryer to clear the gravel out and then have the cars run over the compound a couple laps under yellow in order to finish drying it.

There's the annual Kurt Busch one win of the season. Its written in his contract that he's guaranteed one win.

Where's Paul Allen?

Kurt made the field his bitch today. He gets the last win on the old surface.

I was a junior in high school when they put this surface down. 24 years.

Kyle is PIIIIISSSEED at Ross Chastain for running interference for his teammate to secure the win.

Let’s check in with Daniel Hemric for his thoughts on Kyle Busch this weekend.
