I'm coming from out of state and it looks to be a rain-out on Saturday!
Is anyone local that has some encouraging news regarding the weather?:confused:

I'll be there, rain or shine. Current forecast says Sat morning will be OK, probability of rain goes way up after 2PM.

Bring your rain tires, looks to be a wet track.

Might get some dry laps in Saturday afternoon or Sunday though.
Man, weather.com is the most pessimistic weather service I have ever seen. I like AccuWeather's opinion better:

I'll be there rain or shine.

Thanks for the quick response, but after just checking the weather websites, I'll have to skip this one. I have a new bike I haven't ridden yet and want to wait to get some dry laps in first.

You know, if I could ride at Road Atlanta in 35 degree damp weather last December, I can tolerate a little wet at 65 degrees.

It looks like Saturday will be fine after a session or 2 to dry out the track. Sunday, we'll see. Last year, the forecast was for downpours all weekend, and we had perfect track weather.
