For what it is worth....
If they have three miles of salt and they are running, we are planning on being there. We really need the chance to run the car before we change our minds about the hobby and just give up!
We drove 1/4 of the way to B'ville for the T&T before turning back, why wouldn't we drive the whole way for a T&T we could get records at? We already have rooms booked, the car is loaded, the trailer is packed, the tools are packed, the spares are packed, the chutes are pack (probably going to bring a big one if we only have three miles)...
If nothing else, we can make sure the car is sorted and ready for next year. We can also get some license passes made and who knows, maybe set a record in the 3rd mile...
Maybe the lines won't be long because people are afraid the lines are going to be long. Maybe by Tuesday the remaining people are hot-lapping, anything is possible.
As I posted to the crew this morning when we were all talking about the good things that could happen by a short track/limited season, there is this reality...
The salt is fragile this year, a passing shower could scrub the whole season completely. Not one thing any of us can do to prevent it so just be prepared to look for other opportunities to get your speed fix this year.
