I guess my track day tomorrow is NOT happening :(

It is April 11th in the Northern Hemisphere right? :'(

It should melt quickly. Do you own any Continental snow slicks?

No slicks but I thought I'd give these a shot

I see a dry line forming, I think you can switch to intermediates in a few laps.

Has anyone tried to run on the track with chains?

Sorry to hear- the weather has been a bummer for me lately too with track days. I hope VIR goes well next month.

Debating whether or not to post a picture of the situation here in AZ...

That line's getting better with each lap. I will have to say the trans cooling scoop is working better than ever.

Why the generator? Doesn't look like you should be worried about downed power lines from trees falling all around you :-\

Looks like Byron isn't stuck at work like I am! I <3 SD...

Gary that is for some contractors that are running some lines of some sort under the pavement around campus. We have our own power substation on-site here

Had 2 days at PPIR (Fountain, Colorado) last weekend with NASA Rocky Mountain. Beautiful weather, upper 60's, zero humidity, light breeze. Managed to drop 4+ seconds off my best lap time in the M3 (double the HP and double the tire width).... then we got hit with the 'Blizzard' on Monday.

Didn't overheat, but I did manage to get the gauge to move to about 3/4. PPIR is a tough track to gauge airflow on. Since it is basically a NASCAR bowl with an infield, there isn't much of a breeze inside the bowl. We'll see next month at Pueblo how the addition of the oil-cooler works.

FWIW, Justin Starkey had a write-up in the latest 5.0 where he added a supercharger... blah, blah, blah... but on the opening page there was a photo of the front of his car with a note that it was a 'Classic Design GT500 style' grill. Looks to be the ticket... much nicer than my hacked chicken-wire fiasco (which I still have should you desire it ).

Gary, I hope you learned your lesson...no track dates before July next year!

HAHAHA...I only bail on track days when it's north of 90 degrees. Even in freezing A.M. temps, it's usually nice by mid day. Did a couple of days like that this winter.

Appreciate the offer on the chicken coop but what year GT500 grille is it? I know I need a new one, just wasn't sure if I should get the billet or something else.

Canada corner is one of my favorite turns, but I don't live THERE! (no offense to our Canuck friends :)
