Event Coverage El Mirage Oct 24??????????????????

I talked with George Callaway this morning, and the lake is a lake. weather is in the 70's so the race may still be on, it may dry out. keep your fingers crossed!

Tiny says there is water on the lakebed (landracing.com). I think the meet will depend on whether we get more rain or not. Hopefully it will dry up before Sunday. Nothing on the SCTA site so far.

 

its not looking good?? its gonna be a LLLLLLLLLOONG 3 weeks for me till the Nov meet

 

Right now its not looking too good. If we don't get any more rain and a lot of wind and sun it might just happen. Its one of those things Lance. Don't worry Nov. will be on us before we know it.

 

If it's not canceled, Kev and I will be there, LOVE it wouldn't miss it.--TV

 

i hate to be a pessimist but if it rains half as hard as it has been down here in south orange county at el mirage i think our good ol lake bed could be confused with a part of the pacific ocean.

 

I'm ready to go. I was planning on loading up Thursday afternoon. Now its wait and see what the SCTA says. Keep an eye on scta-bni.org and landracing.com

 

I told you guys.. It's supposed to rain the rest of the week and it's already flooded now. Chances of it drying out are slim to none. Just gonna have to wait till November and hope for good weather.

 

As John Noonan just posted on landracing. "The fat lady is warming up. Tomorrow she sings".


Maybe this rain will give us something besides crap to run on.

 

Tear it up dudes, as Sodbuster said, to damn far away. Have fun, go fast! ~Sololobo~

 

its still raining....

 

Are we gonna see you out there in Nov Lucky??

 

I dont think it will dry out in 3 weeks (Nov meet) but it does need the rain to fix the lake bed

 

I really was lookin forward to going to the meet.

 

I will be there, will find out tonight if the will have a meet.

 

heard it was cancelled.

 

Just posted on landracing that the meet and the Sat. clean up is called due to "excessive mud". This is from Glen Barrett quoting Jim Dunn.

 

There's an email going around that the meet still has NOT been officially cancelled by an actual SCTA official.

 

LOL okay now its officially cancelled.

 

I recieved a call from SCTA Pres Don Ferguson III. He was standing on the shore with water lapping at his shoes -

MEET IS CANCELLED

See you all next month, 11/14-15. A two day event.

#544 XF/GR will be at the November meet with a new motor..... at least, thats the plan.....

 

So does this thread officially become the El Mirage Nov. 14-15???????????????????????????? thread?

 

Although it is discouraging for those who had planned to attend, the lake desperately needs moisture. Hope for Nov.

 

I bet the track conditions are going to be grand in November!


Keven

 

We can hope and pray that the lakebed will be better. So long as some 4WD dick doesn't get out on it.

 

Yeah if the weather permits. We want to get a few runs in before next year.. Hope to see you all out there.. Luck

 

Got this photo off of landracing. I'm thinking of pulling the wheels off the sidecar and putting an outboard engine on.

I love watching you guys run but I haven't see you out there all year??
I know your focus was on B'Ville this year, are we gonna see you at ElMo more next year?

 

Well I plan on having my car done and try to get some shakedown runs at Elmo before Bonneville. We havent been to elmo all year. We always find ourselves to busy. The plans is for sure being there in November. See ya soon

 

Here's the email I got.

Hi Everyone,
The Oct El Mirage meet has officially been cancelled due to large amounts of water on the lake. The notice has been posted on the SCTA web site and is on the SCTA Office phone message.
