Well... it's definitely not looking good Steve :-\  . It's basically saying showers early in the am and following T- storms. Supposed to clear up to partly cloudy skies late. But that track rides ugly when wet.

Post by: dreth on February 25, 2006, 05:35:58 PM

Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:06:45 AM
 :( I am watching since 5 and its showing the area covered by 7.  If the track gets as much rains as we just got its over. 

What time do the races start today?


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:11:46 AM
The races start around 12:30-1:00.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:14:31 AM
Maybe by then it will dry up.  Its a tough one, the radar shows rain out there right now.  There are saying now that the rain can hang around until mid day in Orlando.

Are you still going?


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: dreth on February 26, 2006, 06:18:59 AM
a friend of mine went to sand mt about 2 weeks ago and heard that the place never got its permits for septic and water. the inspector decided that, thats it shut it down. my friend was not sure this was true! he then went on the same day to mullberry and talked directly to the owner (who is partners with the owner of sand mt for mullbery) and asked him whats up? he confirmed the rumer and said that both tracks will shut down at some point very soon.
  is it true or just a way to get more people to the tracks for more buisness faster. i dont know what to think but it would suck if the rumer was true.
what has anybody heard







THE ABOVE STATEMENT IS NOT FROM ME! IT IS IN THE OPEN DIS. SECT.

IS THIS TRUE? SANDMOUNTAIN ? I FIGURED YOU WOULD WANT TO NIP IT IN THE BUD IF NOT.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:19:48 AM
From what channel 9 says it is moving very fast.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:26:11 AM
You have run out there longer than me, what do think?  Two hours of steady rain and you would think its over but I dont know.

Should we wait and call Sandmountain around 8 or just go for it?  I dont want to drang my father in law all over for nothing,


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:28:19 AM
Dale has pumps out there so I think we may be ok but lets see if they post by 6:45 & then we can make our call.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:30:19 AM
Dreth sm has another hearing date in May but they should be open atleast that long & I hope everything goes good at the hearing so they can continue running what they have built out there.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:32:25 AM
The live doppler is showing the rain is almost over down there. Let try it. What else will you do besides sit on the couch & watch the idiot box.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:34:34 AM
I agree lets wait and see if they post.  I can take him to do some other stuff if the races get shut down.

I think all of you should stay home and watch tv since I have to work today and cant ride anyway. ;D


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:50:22 AM

Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:52:13 AM
I say we call them around 8.  That gives us pleanty of time to get out there if its not under water.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on February 26, 2006, 06:53:25 AM
I just tried to call Dale & left him a message for him to call back so we could make our call.


Title: Re: Sandmountain Sunday 2/26 Roll Call
Post by: Flea_Jumper on February 26, 2006, 06:54:22 AM

If your bike was faster I would take it & ride it for you since you have to work but I can't seem to put myself on a stocker.

Aww man what a good day it was for racing. I thought that track was going to be horrible. It was better than any other time I've ridden it. Tires were hooking up real good and no dust to deal w/.

Here's Dreth taking his 1st few laps around the TT track. This guy did pretty darn good for his 1st time racing TT. He took 4th place in both Motos. He's know hooked like the rest of us ;)

Post by: 01ZX12R on February 26, 2006, 09:02:25 PM
I spoke with the SM family am they asured me that they were not going to shut down and that it was just a RUMOR. On the other hand it was a great day of racing. Had a blast, Rob is starting to get the feel back and is steppin his game up in the vet class he was able to hold Dreth back and take 3rd. Great job today guys. Flea Jr sorry I flagged you off the track but I did not what to see you destroy the motor. The trophy and the points just are not worth that kinda money. Dreth thanks for coming down and spending the day with us hope to see you back out there with us soon. Steve, look on the bright side you will have a fresh motor and a fresh knee when you come back.
