drying watkins glen

i know the glen is very narrow in certain spots  any1 know how long it takes for the jet dryers 2 dry??

As a follow up to Stats question. How long does it take to dry and how long does the race take to run. Back that up from say 7:30 and we can pretty much figure out when the rain needs to end

would guess at least 2 hours

to dry that is

last years race 2 hours 23 minutes

    doesn't it get dark around 8.20ish at the glen??

I would guess this race takes 3 hrs to run. If it gets dark at 7:30 that would mean they would have to go green at 4:00 at the latest.

I really doubt that Nascar would go green any later than that. Even though they could just go half way I guess.

 

Stats, I stand corrected

Rise: 6:13 AM

Set: 8:10 PM

Man, Im as positive as they come but Im a realist as well and from what I just looked at??????

We'll probably be racing tomorrow.

 

I'll provide the same rant as last week. Why on earth doesn't NASCAR mandate other tracks ship Track Dryers for the Big Game each week to the tracks that take hours to dry with the equipment they have on hand when rain is in the forecast? For the amount of $$$ spent and made on a Sunday Race, the shipping and employee costs is nothing. I feel better now

think we have no chance today

there is no way they get this race in 2day       c everybody hopefully 2morrow as the weather even looks bad 2morrow....

none!

should have started at 9:00 this morning lol

60% chance of rain tomorrow

looking at the radar it should stop raining around 4 but dont think thats enough time to dry and get it in!

what u guys think?

You must remember that's over a 24hr. period so it could rain through the night and that be it or not.

if they can get half the race in tonight they will race because the forecast is ugly until Wednesday.  Dryers on track right now

one small cell left if it gets by were going racing if it hits were toast!

what station was this thing on, my guide doesn't have anything as it was supposed to be over by now. thx in advance.

ESPN but they are showing sportscenter rite now
